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]

This sequence change replaces leucine, which is neutral and non-polar, with phenylalanine, which is neutral and non-polar, at codon 151 of the GUCA1A protein (p.Leu151Phe). This variant is not present in population databases (gnomAD no frequency). This missense change has been observed in individuals with cone-rod dystrophy (PMID: 15790869, 24875811, 29555955). It has also been observed to segregate with disease in related individuals. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 9152). An algorithm developed to predict the effect of missense changes on protein structure and function (PolyPhen-2) suggests that this variant is likely to be disruptive. Experimental studies have shown that this missense change affects GUCA1A function (PMID: 15790869, 23472098). For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. -

Published functional studies demonstrate a damaging effect (perturbation of photoresponse and impaired guanylate cyclase inhibitition leading to gain of function resulting in persistent stimulation in dark adapted photoreceptors) (Dell'Orco et al., 2014; Sokal et al., 2005); Not observed at significant frequency in large population cohorts (Lek et al., 2016); In silico analysis supports that this missense variant has a deleterious effect on protein structure/function; This variant is associated with the following publications: (PMID: 23428504, 22183351, 20238026, 20213926, 24875811, 19459154, 24778606, 24024198, 15790869, 23472098, 15735604, 31728034, 29555955, 28559085, 24566882) -
