Variant summary
Our verdict is Benign. The variant received -13 ACMG points: 0P and 13B. BP4_StrongBP6BS1BS2
The NM_001201543.2(FAM161A):c.1133T>G(p.Leu378Arg) variant causes a missense change involving the alteration of a non-conserved nucleotide. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 0.00352 in 1,614,172 control chromosomes in the GnomAD database, including 29 homozygotes. In-silico tool predicts a benign outcome for this variant. 13/22 in silico tools predict a benign outcome for this variant. Variant has been reported in ClinVar as Conflicting classifications of pathogenicity (no stars). Synonymous variant affecting the same amino acid position (i.e. L378L) has been classified as Likely benign.

Retinitis pigmentosa Uncertain:1
This variant was observed as part of a predisposition screen in an ostensibly healthy population. A literature search was performed for the gene, cDNA change, and amino acid change (where applicable). Publications were found based on this search. However, the evidence from the literature, in combination with allele frequency data from public databases where available, was not sufficient to rule this variant in or out of causing disease. Therefore, this variant is classified as a variant of unknown significance. -

Variant summary: FAM161A c.1133T>G (p.Leu378Arg) results in a non-conservative amino acid change in the encoded protein sequence. Three of five in-silico tools predict a damaging effect of the variant on protein function. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 0.003 in 248790 control chromosomes, predominantly within the Non-Finnish European subpopulation in the gnomAD database at a frequency of 0.0042, including 3 homozygotes. The observed variant frequency within Non-Finnish European control individuals in the gnomAD database (v2.1 dataset) is approximately 6.7-fold of the estimated maximal expected allele frequency for a pathogenic variant in FAM161A causing Retinitis Pigmentosa phenotype (0.00063). The variant was also observed in the Amish subpopulation in 66/910 alleles, including 7 homozygotes, with an allele frequency of 0.0725 in the gnomAD v3.1 dataset. These data strongly suggest that the variant is a benign polymorphism. Six submitters have provided clinical-significance assessments for this variant in ClinVar after 2014 without evidence for independent evaluation, and classified the variant as VUS (n=3), likely benign (n=2) / benign (n=1). Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as benign. -
FAM161A-related disorder Benign:1
This variant is classified as likely benign based on ACMG/AMP sequence variant interpretation guidelines (Richards et al. 2015 PMID: 25741868, with internal and published modifications). -
