Variant summary
Our verdict is Uncertain significance. The variant received 1 ACMG points: 1P and 0B. PP5
The NM_145649.5(GCNT2):c.1154G>A(p.Arg385His) variant causes a missense change. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 0.0000161 in 1,613,644 control chromosomes in the GnomAD database, with no homozygous occurrence. 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. R385C) has been classified as Uncertain significance.

Cataract 13 with adult I phenotype Pathogenic:2Uncertain:1
Algorithms developed to predict the effect of missense changes on protein structure and function are either unavailable or do not agree on the potential impact of this missense change (SIFT: "Deleterious"; PolyPhen-2: "Benign"; Align-GVGD: "Class C0"). This sequence change replaces arginine, which is basic and polar, with histidine, which is basic and polar, at codon 383 of the GCNT2 protein (p.Arg383His). This variant is present in population databases (rs55940927, gnomAD 0.06%). This missense change has been observed in individuals with congenital cataract with adult i phenotype (PMID: 29914532). It has also been observed to segregate with disease in related individuals. This variant is also known as c.1154G_x0008_>A (p.Arg385His). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 9129). Experimental studies have shown that this missense change affects GCNT2 function (PMID: 11739194, 12468428). This variant disrupts the p.Arg383 amino acid residue in GCNT2. Other variant(s) that disrupt this residue have been observed in individuals with GCNT2-related conditions (PMID: 29770612, 29914532), which suggests that this may be a clinically significant amino acid residue. In summary, the currently available evidence indicates that the variant is pathogenic, but additional data are needed to prove that conclusively. Therefore, this variant has been classified as Likely Pathogenic. -

The variant is observed at an extremely low frequency in the gnomAD v2.1.1 dataset (total allele frequency: 0.006%). Missense changes are a common disease-causing mechanism. In silico tool predictions suggest no damaging effect of the variant on gene or gene product (REVEL: 0.25; 3Cnet: 0.04). Same nucleotide change resulting in same amino acid change has been previously reported to be associated with GCNT2 related disorder (ClinVar ID: VCV000009129 / PMID: 29914532). A different missense change at the same codon (p.Arg385Cys) has been reported to be associated with GCNT2 related disorder (PMID: 29770612). However the evidence of pathogenicity is insufficient at this time. Therefore, this variant is classified as uncertain significanceaccording to the recommendation of ACMG/AMP guideline. -
