Variant summary

Our verdict is Pathogenic. Variant got 12 ACMG points: 12P and 0B. PM1 PM2 PM5 PP3_Strong PP5_Moderate

The NM_004183.4(BEST1):​c.652C>G​(p.Arg218Gly) variant causes a missense change involving the alteration of a non-conserved nucleotide. The variant was absent in control chromosomes in GnomAD project. In-silico tool predicts a pathogenic outcome for this variant. Variant has been reported in ClinVar as Pathogenic (★). Another variant affecting the same amino acid position, but resulting in a different missense (i.e. R218Q) has been classified as Likely pathogenic.

Genes affected

BEST1 (HGNC:12703): (bestrophin 1) This gene encodes a member of the bestrophin gene family. This small gene family is characterized by proteins with a highly conserved N-terminus with four to six transmembrane domains. Bestrophins may form chloride ion channels or may regulate voltage-gated L-type calcium-ion channels. Bestrophins are generally believed to form calcium-activated chloride-ion channels in epithelial cells but they have also been shown to be highly permeable to bicarbonate ion transport in retinal tissue. Mutations in this gene are responsible for juvenile-onset vitelliform macular dystrophy (VMD2), also known as Best macular dystrophy, in addition to adult-onset vitelliform macular dystrophy (AVMD) and other retinopathies. Alternative splicing results in multiple variants encoding distinct isoforms.[provided by RefSeq, Nov 2008]

BEST1 (HGNC:):

ACMG classification

Verdict is Pathogenic. Variant got 12 ACMG points.

• PM1: In a topological_domain Extracellular (size 28) in uniprot entity BEST1_HUMAN there are 50 pathogenic changes around while only 1 benign (98%) in NM_004183.4
• PM2: Very rare variant in population databases, with high coverage
• PM5: Other missense variant is known to change same aminoacid residue: Variant chrnull-null-null-null is described in UniProt as null.
• PP3: MetaRNN computational evidence supports a deleterious effect, 0.993
• PP5: Variant 11-61957402-C-G is Pathogenic according to our data. Variant chr11-61957402-C-G is described in ClinVar as [Pathogenic]. Clinvar id is 1070185.Status of the report is criteria_provided_single_submitter, 1 stars. Variant chr11-61957402-C-G is described in Lovd as [Likely_pathogenic].

This variant has been observed in individual(s) with autosomal dominant Best vitelliform macular dystrophy (PMID: 23213274, 17646752). It has also been observed to segregate with disease in related individuals. This sequence change replaces arginine with glycine at codon 218 of the BEST1 protein (p.Arg218Gly). The arginine residue is highly conserved and there is a moderate physicochemical difference between arginine and glycine. This variant is not present in population databases (ExAC no frequency). 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 BEST1 protein function. This variant disrupts the p.Arg218 amino acid residue in BEST1. Other variant(s) that disrupt this residue have been determined to be pathogenic (PMID: 28687848, 29781975). This suggests that this residue is clinically significant, and that variants that disrupt this residue are likely to be disease-causing. For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. -
