NM_000539.3:c.173C>G
Variant summary
Our verdict is Pathogenic. Variant got 16 ACMG points: 16P and 0B. PM2PM5PP3_StrongPP5_Very_Strong
The NM_000539.3(RHO):c.173C>G(p.Thr58Arg) variant causes a missense change. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 0.000000684 in 1,461,888 control chromosomes in the GnomAD database, with no homozygous occurrence. In-silico tool predicts a pathogenic outcome for this variant. Variant has been reported in ClinVar as Likely pathogenic (★★). Another variant affecting the same amino acid position, but resulting in a different missense (i.e. T58M) has been classified as Likely pathogenic.

This sequence change replaces threonine, which is neutral and polar, with arginine, which is basic and polar, at codon 58 of the RHO protein (p.Thr58Arg). This variant is not present in population databases (gnomAD no frequency). This missense change has been observed in individuals with autosomal dominant retinitis pigmentosa (PMID: 2215617, 29847639). It has also been observed to segregate with disease in related individuals. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 13016). Invitae Evidence Modeling of protein sequence and biophysical properties (such as structural, functional, and spatial information, amino acid conservation, physicochemical variation, residue mobility, and thermodynamic stability) indicates that this missense variant is expected to disrupt RHO protein function with a positive predictive value of 95%. Experimental studies have shown that this missense change affects RHO function (PMID: 1924344). Algorithms developed to predict the effect of sequence changes on RNA splicing suggest that this variant may create or strengthen a splice site. For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. -
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: 2333895, 15823756, 21094163, 8486634, 1924344, 2215617, 36648560, 30977563, 32483926, 25408095, 32882181, 32795431, 31717845, 29847639, 33777460, 31908405, 1929926, 28981474, 32037395, 18385078, 1882937, 8328469) -
RHO-related disorder Pathogenic:1
The RHO c.173C>G variant is predicted to result in the amino acid substitution p.Thr58Arg. This variant was reported in the heterozygous state in individuals with autosomal dominant retinitis pigmentosa (see, for example, Dryja et al. 1990. PubMed ID: 2215617; Jacobson et al. 1991. PubMed ID: 1882937; supplementary data, Comander et al. 2017. PubMed ID: 28981474; Martin-Merida et al. 2018. PubMed ID: 29847639; Georgiou et al. 2020. PubMed ID: 32795431). This variant has not been reported in a large population database (http://gnomad.broadinstitute.org), indicating this variant is rare. This variant is interpreted as pathogenic. -
