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.

ACMG classification

Classification was made for transcript

Our verdict: Pathogenic. The variant received 11 ACMG points.

PM1
In a hotspot region, there are 10 aminoacids with missense pathogenic changes in the window of +-8 aminoacids around while only 1 benign, 15 uncertain in NM_000539.3
PM2
Very rare variant in population databases, with high coverage;
PM5
Other missense variant is known to change same aminoacid residue: Variant chr3-129531026-C-G is described in ClinVar as Pathogenic/Likely_pathogenic. ClinVar VariationId is 938969.Status of the report is criteria_provided_multiple_submitters_no_conflicts, 2 stars.
PP2
Missense variant in the gene, where a lot of missense mutations are associated with disease in ClinVar. The gene has 125 curated pathogenic missense variants (we use a threshold of 10). The gene has 8 curated benign missense variants. Gene score misZ: 0.24182 (below the threshold of 3.09). Trascript score misZ: 1.4363 (below the threshold of 3.09). GenCC associations: The gene is linked to congenital stationary night blindness, congenital stationary night blindness autosomal dominant 1, retinitis pigmentosa 4, fundus albipunctatus, retinitis pigmentosa.
PP3
MetaRNN computational evidence supports a deleterious effect, 0.995

In summary, the available evidence is currently insufficient to determine the role of this variant in disease. Therefore, it has been classified as a Variant of Uncertain Significance. 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 RHO protein function. This variant disrupts the p.Pro171 amino acid residue in RHO. Other variant(s) that disrupt this residue have been determined to be pathogenic (PMID: 8088850, 26962691; Invitae). This suggests that this residue is clinically significant, and that variants that disrupt this residue are likely to be disease-causing. This variant has not been reported in the literature in individuals affected with RHO-related conditions. This sequence change replaces proline, which is neutral and non-polar, with threonine, which is neutral and polar, at codon 171 of the RHO protein (p.Pro171Thr). This variant is not present in population databases (gnomAD no frequency). -
