Genes affected
KCNJ13 (HGNC:6259): (potassium inwardly rectifying channel subfamily J member 13) This gene encodes a member of the inwardly rectifying potassium channel family of proteins. Members of this family form ion channel pores that allow potassium ions to pass into a cell. The encoded protein belongs to a subfamily of low signal channel conductance proteins that have a low dependence on potassium concentration. Mutations in this gene are associated with snowflake vitreoretinal degeneration. Alternate splicing results in multiple transcript variants.[provided by RefSeq, Feb 2010]
GIGYF2 (HGNC:11960): (GRB10 interacting GYF protein 2) This gene contains CAG trinucleotide repeats and encodes a protein containing several stretches of polyglutamine residues. The encoded protein may be involved in the regulation of tyrosine kinase receptor signaling. This gene is located in a chromosomal region that was genetically linked to Parkinson disease type 11, and mutations in this gene were thought to be causative for this disease. However, more recent studies in different populations have been unable to replicate this association. Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants. [provided by RefSeq, May 2013]

Snowflake vitreoretinal degeneration Pathogenic:3

Significance:Likely pathogenic
Review Status:criteria provided, single submitter
Collection Method:clinical testing

This sequence change is predicted to replace arginine with tryptophan at codon 162 of the KCNJ13 protein, p.(Arg162Trp). The arginine residue is evolutionarily conserved in vertebrates (100 vertebrates, UCSC), and is located inward rectifier potassium channel transmembrane domain. There is a large physicochemical difference between arginine and tryptophan. The variant is present in a single individual in a large population cohort (rs121918542, 1/247,900 alleles in gnomAD v2.1). The variant is present in at least three individuals with snowflake vitreoretinal degeneration (SVD) or macular dystrophy, and segregates with SVD over four generations (PMID: 18179896, 15557460, 33546218; Royal Melbourne Hospital). Additionally, in vitro functional assays demonstrate that the variant suppresses the potassium channel activity with a dominant-negative effect (PMID: 18179896, 23255580). Multiple lines of computational evidence predict a deleterious effect for the missense substitution (6/6 algorithms). Based on the classification scheme RMH ACMG Guidelines v1.5.1, this variant is classified as LIKELY PATHOGENIC. Following criteria are met: PP1_Strong, PS3_Supporting, PS4_Supporting, PM2_Supporting, PP3. -

This sequence change replaces arginine, which is basic and polar, with tryptophan, which is neutral and slightly polar, at codon 162 of the KCNJ13 protein (p.Arg162Trp). This variant is present in population databases (rs121918542, gnomAD 0.006%). This missense change has been observed in individual(s) with snowflake vitreoretinal degeneration (PMID: 18179896). It has also been observed to segregate with disease in related individuals. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 6585). Advanced modeling of protein sequence and biophysical properties (such as structural, functional, and spatial information, amino acid conservation, physicochemical variation, residue mobility, and thermodynamic stability) performed at Invitae indicates that this missense variant is expected to disrupt KCNJ13 protein function. Experimental studies have shown that this missense change affects KCNJ13 function (PMID: 18179896, 23255580, 23977131). For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. -
