Genes affected
GUCA1A (HGNC:4678): (guanylate cyclase activator 1A) This gene encodes an enzyme that plays a role in the recovery of retinal photoreceptors from photobleaching. This enzyme promotes the activity of retinal guanylyl cyclase-1 (GC1) at low calcium concentrations and inhibits GC1 at high calcium concentrations. Mutations in this gene can cause cone dystrophy 3 and code-rod dystrophy 14. provided by RefSeq, Jul 2020]
ENSG00000290147 (HGNC:56129): (GUCA1ANB-GUCA1A readthrough) This locus represents naturally occurring readthrough transcription between the neighboring GUCA1ANB (GUCA1A neighbor) and GUCA1A (guanylate cyclase activator 1A) genes on chromosome 6. The readthrough transcript encodes the same protein as GUCA1A. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2020]

The P50L variant in the GUCA1A gene has been reported previously in three members of a family with variable ocular abnormalities, ranging from minimal macular involvement to moderately severe cone-rod dystrophy (Downes et al., 2001). The P50L variant was also identified in a patient with cone and cone-rod dystrophy, however, informative familial segregation data was not included to confirm if this variant occurred de novo or was inherited in this individual (Boulanger-Scemama et al., 2015). The NHLBI ESP Exome Sequencing Project reports P50L was observed in 0.12% (10/8600) alleles from individuals of European American ancestry, indicating it may be a rare (benign) variant in this population. The P50L variant is a semi-conservative amino acid substitution, which may impact secondary protein structure as these residues differ in some properties. This substitution occurs at a position that is conserved in mammals. One in vitro functional study concluded that this variant results in impaired calcium binding, however, enzyme assays showed similar results for the P50L variant compared to wild type enzyme, and it is unclear how this variant impacts the protein function (Sokal et al., 2000). In silico analysis is inconsistent in its predictions as to whether or not the variant is damaging to the protein structure/function. We now interpret P50L as a variant of uncertain significance. -
