Variant summary

Our verdict is Uncertain significance. The variant received 3 ACMG points: 5P and 2B. PM1 PM2 PP2 BP4_Moderate

The NM_000322.5(PRPH2):​c.929G>C​(p.Arg310Thr) 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 benign outcome for this variant. 14/19 in silico tools predict a benign outcome for this variant. No clinical diagnostic laboratories have submitted clinical-significance assessments for this variant to ClinVar. Another variant affecting the same amino acid position, but resulting in a different missense (i.e. R310K) has been classified as Benign.

Genes affected

PRPH2 (HGNC:9942): (peripherin 2) The protein encoded by this gene is a member of the transmembrane 4 superfamily, also known as the tetraspanin family. Most of these members are cell-surface proteins that are characterized by the presence of four hydrophobic domains. The proteins mediate signal transduction events that play a role in the regulation of cell development, activation, growth and motility. This encoded protein is a cell surface glycoprotein found in the outer segment of both rod and cone photoreceptor cells. It may function as an adhesion molecule involved in stabilization and compaction of outer segment disks or in the maintenance of the curvature of the rim. This protein is essential for disk morphogenesis. Defects in this gene are associated with both central and peripheral retinal degenerations. Some of the various phenotypically different disorders are autosomal dominant retinitis pigmentosa, progressive macular degeneration, macular dystrophy and retinitis pigmentosa digenic.

ACMG classification

Our verdict: Uncertain_significance. The variant received 3 ACMG points.

• PM1: In a hotspot region, there are 2 aminoacids with missense pathogenic changes in the window of +-8 aminoacids around while only 2 benign, 14 uncertain in NM_000322.5
• PM2: Very rare variant in population databases, with high coverage
• PP2: Missense variant in the gene, where a lot of missense mutations are associated with disease in ClinVar. The gene has 126 curated pathogenic missense variants (we use a threshold of 10). The gene has 10 curated benign missense variants. Gene score misZ: 0.10182 (below the threshold of 3.09). Trascript score misZ: 0.57529 (below the threshold of 3.09). GenCC associations: The gene is linked to inherited retinal dystrophy, fundus albipunctatus, retinitis pigmentosa 7, choroidal dystrophy, central areolar 2, adult-onset foveomacular vitelliform dystrophy, retinitis punctata albescens, hereditary macular dystrophy, central areolar choroidal dystrophy, Leber congenital amaurosis, vitelliform macular dystrophy 3, multifocal pattern dystrophy simulating fundus flavimaculatus, PRPH2-related retinopathy, cone-rod dystrophy, retinitis pigmentosa, patterned macular dystrophy.
• BP4: Computational evidence support a benign effect (MetaRNN=0.14437094).
