Genes affected
RHO (HGNC:10012): (rhodopsin) The protein encoded by this gene is found in rod cells in the back of the eye and is essential for vision in low-light conditions. The encoded protein binds to 11-cis retinal and is activated when light hits the retinal molecule. Defects in this gene are a cause of congenital stationary night blindness.

This sequence change replaces asparagine, which is neutral and polar, with serine, which is neutral and polar, at codon 15 of the RHO protein (p.Asn15Ser). This variant is not present in population databases (gnomAD no frequency). This missense change has been observed in individual(s) with autosomal dominant retinitis pigmentosa (PMID: 8353500, 9483582). It has also been observed to segregate with disease in related individuals. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 13042). 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: 31100078). 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. -

Variant is located in a mutational hotspot where >50% of variants are pathogenic (PM1). Homozygous allele count in gnomAD exomes and genomse are less than 0, and variant is not found in genomes (PM2). Other variats at this amino acid residue have been classified as pathogenic (PM5, p.Asn15Lys; p.Asn15Ile). REVEL score is 0.788 (PP3_mod). + Experimental studies have shown that this missense change affects RHO function (PS3, PMID: 31100078) -
