Variant summary

Our verdict is Pathogenic. Variant got 12 ACMG points: 12P and 0B. PM1 PM2 PM5 PP3_Strong PP5_Moderate

The NM_000539.3(RHO):c.404G>C(p.Arg135Pro) variant causes a missense change involving the alteration of a conserved nucleotide. The variant was absent in control chromosomes in GnomAD project. In-silico tool predicts a pathogenic outcome for this variant. Variant has been reported in ClinVar as Pathogenic (★). Another variant affecting the same amino acid position, but resulting in a different missense (i.e. R135L) has been classified as Pathogenic.

Genes affected

RHO (HGNC:10012): (rhodopsin) The protein encoded by this gene is found in rod cells in the back of the eye and is essential for vision in low-light conditions. The encoded protein binds to 11-cis retinal and is activated when light hits the retinal molecule. Defects in this gene are a cause of congenital stationary night blindness.

ACMG classification

Verdict is Pathogenic. Variant got 12 ACMG points.

• PM1: In a hotspot region, there are 3 aminoacids with missense pathogenic changes in the window of +-8 aminoacids around while only 0 benign, 5 uncertain in NM_000539.3
• PM2: Very rare variant in population databases, with high coverage
• PM5: Other missense variant is known to change same aminoacid residue: Variant chr3-129530918-G-T is described in ClinVar as [Pathogenic]. Clinvar id is 13024.Status of the report is criteria_provided_multiple_submitters_no_conflicts, 2 stars.
• PP3: MetaRNN computational evidence supports a deleterious effect, 0.995
• PP5: Variant 3-129530918-G-C is Pathogenic according to our data. Variant chr3-129530918-G-C is described in ClinVar as [Pathogenic]. Clinvar id is 1455410.Status of the report is criteria_provided_single_submitter, 1 stars. Variant chr3-129530918-G-C is described in Lovd as [Likely_pathogenic].

For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. This variant disrupts the p.Arg135 amino acid residue in RHO. Other variant(s) that disrupt this residue have been determined to be pathogenic (PMID: 1862076, 18175313, 25101269, 28559085). This suggests that this residue is clinically significant, and that variants that disrupt this residue are likely to be disease-causing. Experimental studies have shown that this missense change affects RHO function (PMID: 30977563). Advanced modeling of protein sequence and biophysical properties (such as structural, functional, and spatial information, amino acid conservation, physicochemical variation, residue mobility, and thermodynamic stability) performed at Invitae indicates that this missense variant is expected to disrupt RHO protein function. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 1455410). This missense change has been observed in individual(s) with autosomal dominant retinitis pigmentosa (PMID: 18175313, 33420188). It has also been observed to segregate with disease in related individuals. This variant is not present in population databases (gnomAD no frequency). This sequence change replaces arginine, which is basic and polar, with proline, which is neutral and non-polar, at codon 135 of the RHO protein (p.Arg135Pro). -
