Genes affected
EYS (HGNC:21555): (eyes shut homolog) The product of this gene contains multiple epidermal growth factor (EGF)-like and LamG domains. The protein is expressed in the photoreceptor layer of the retina, and the gene is mutated in autosomal recessive retinitis pigmentosa. Multiple transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been found for this gene. [provided by RefSeq, Dec 2008]

This variant was observed in the ICSL laboratory as part of a predisposition screen in an ostensibly healthy population. It had not been previously curated by ICSL or reported in the Human Gene Mutation Database (HGMD: prior to June 1st, 2018), and was therefore a candidate for classification through an automated scoring system. Utilizing variant allele frequency, disease prevalence and penetrance estimates, and inheritance mode, an automated score was calculated to assess if this variant is too frequent to cause the disease. Based on the score, this variant could not be ruled out of causing disease and therefore its association with disease required further investigation. A literature search was performed for the gene, cDNA change, and amino acid change (if applicable). No publications were found based on this search. This variant was therefore classified as a variant of unknown significance for this disease. -

Variant summary: EYS c.977G>A (p.Ser326Asn) results in a conservative amino acid change located in the EGF-like domain (IPR000742) of the encoded protein sequence. Five of five in-silico tools predict a benign effect of the variant on protein function. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 0.0018 in 250760 control chromosomes, predominantly at a frequency of 0.0082 within the African or African-American subpopulation in the gnomAD database. The observed variant frequency within African or African-American control individuals in the gnomAD database is approximately 2 fold of the estimated maximal expected allele frequency for a pathogenic variant in EYS causing Retinitis Pigmentosa phenotype (0.0034), strongly suggesting that the variant is a benign polymorphism found primarily in populations of African or African-American origin. c.977G>A has been reported in the literature in individuals affected with Retinitis Pigmentosa (Audo_2010, Wang_2014, El Shamieh_2015, Dieiro_2020). These reports do not provide unequivocal conclusions about association of the variant with Retinitis Pigmentosa. To our knowledge, no experimental evidence demonstrating an impact on protein function has been reported. The following publications have been ascertained in the context of this evaluation (PMID: 20333770, 32483926, 25692139, 32581362, 25097241). Ten submitters have cited clinical-significance assessments for this variant to ClinVar after 2014 and classified this variant as likely pathogenic (n=1), uncertain significance (n=5), likely benign (n=3) and benign (n=1). Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as likely benign. -
