Variant summary
Our verdict is Benign. The variant received -7 ACMG points: 0P and 7B. BP4_ModerateBP6BS2
The NM_002098.6(GUCA1B):c.469G>A(p.Gly157Arg) variant causes a missense change involving the alteration of a non-conserved nucleotide. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 0.000202 in 1,568,876 control chromosomes in the GnomAD database, including 4 homozygotes. In-silico tool predicts a benign outcome for this variant. Variant has been reported in ClinVar as Conflicting classifications of pathogenicity (no stars). Another variant affecting the same amino acid position, but resulting in a different missense (i.e. G157A) has been classified as Uncertain significance.

This sequence change replaces glycine, which is neutral and non-polar, with arginine, which is basic and polar, at codon 157 of the GUCA1B protein (p.Gly157Arg). This variant is present in population databases (rs121909124, gnomAD 0.1%), and has an allele count higher than expected for a pathogenic variant. This missense change has been observed in individual(s) with clinical features of retinitis pigmentosa (PMID: 15452722). It has also been observed to segregate with disease in related individuals. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 7369). An algorithm developed to predict the effect of missense changes on protein structure and function outputs the following: PolyPhen-2: "Benign". The arginine amino acid residue is found in multiple mammalian species, which suggests that this missense change does not adversely affect protein function. Experimental studies have shown that this missense change affects GUCA1B function (PMID: 33812995). In summary, the available evidence is currently insufficient to determine the role of this variant in disease. Therefore, it has been classified as a Variant of Uncertain Significance. -
