Genes affected

PDE6B (HGNC:8786): (phosphodiesterase 6B) Photon absorption triggers a signaling cascade in rod photoreceptors that activates cGMP phosphodiesterase (PDE), resulting in the rapid hydrolysis of cGMP, closure of cGMP-gated cation channels, and hyperpolarization of the cell. PDE is a peripheral membrane heterotrimeric enzyme made up of alpha, beta, and gamma subunits. This gene encodes the beta subunit. Mutations in this gene result in retinitis pigmentosa and autosomal dominant congenital stationary night blindness. Multiple transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been found for this gene. [provided by RefSeq, Feb 2009]

PDE6B-AS1 (HGNC:40438): (PDE6B antisense RNA 1)

ACMG classification

Verdict is Pathogenic. Variant got 12 ACMG points.

• PVS1: Splicing +-2 bp (donor or acceptor) variant, product NOT destroyed by NMD, known LOF gene, truncates exone, which is 0.01871345 fraction of the gene. Cryptic splice site detected, with MaxEntScore 6.8, offset of 48, new splice context is: acgaaatgttcaaatttcAGgta. Cryptic site results in inframe change. If cryptic site found is not functional and variant results in exon loss, it results in inframe change.
• PM2: Very rare variant in population databases, with high coverage
• PP5: Variant 4-656244-G-T is Pathogenic according to our data. Variant chr4-656244-G-T is described in ClinVar as [Pathogenic]. Clinvar id is 191354.Status of the report is criteria_provided_multiple_submitters_no_conflicts, 2 stars. Variant chr4-656244-G-T is described in Lovd as [Pathogenic]. Variant chr4-656244-G-T is described in Lovd as [Likely_pathogenic].
