Variant summary
Our verdict is Likely pathogenic. Variant got 7 ACMG points: 7P and 0B. PM3_StrongPP3PP4PM2_Supporting
This summary comes from the ClinGen Evidence Repository: The NM_000329.3(RPE65):c.982C>T (p.Leu328Phe) variant is a missense variant causing a substitution of leucine with phenylalanine at position 328. This variant is present in gnomAD v.4.1.0 at a Grpmax allele frequency of 0.000003650, with 2/91076 in the South Asian population, which is lower than the ClinGen LCA/eoRD VCEP PM2_Supporting threshold of <0.0002 (PM2_Supporting). The computational predictor REVEL gives a score of 0.737, which is above the ClinGen LCA/eoRD VCEP threshold of ≥ 0.644 and predicts a damaging effect on RPE65 function (PP3). This variant has been reported in at least 4 probands with early-onset severe retinal dystrophy who were compound heterozygous with either the p.Tyr275Ter variant confirmed in trans (Pathogenic by VCEP, 1 point, PMID:31630094); the NM_000329.3(RPE65):c.639dup (p.Ala214SerfsTer20) variant suspected in trans (Pathogenic by VCEP, 0.5 pt, PMID:28393863); the p.Glu254Asp variant suspected in trans (LP by VCEP, 0.25 pt, PMID:35129589 with additional information presented in ARVO meeting abstract https://iovs.arvojournals.org/article.aspx?articleid=2767855); or the p.Leu447Pro variant confirmed in trans (VUS by VCEP, 0.25 pt, PMID:38002999), all of which were previously classified as described above by the ClinGen LCA/eoRD VCEP (2 total points, PM3_Strong). At least one proband harboring this variant exhibits a phenotype including clinical diagnosis of Leber congenital amaurosis (0.5 pt), congenital night blindness (0.5 pt), White/yellow dot deposits (2 pt), previous exome testing that did not provide an alternative explanation for visual impairment (2 pt), and symptomatic onset between birth and 5 years (1 pt), which together are specific for RPE65-related recessive retinopathy (6 points, PMIDs: 31630094, 34830511, PP4). In summary, this variant meets the criteria to be classified as Likely Pathogenic for RPE65-related recessive retinopathy based on the ACMG/AMP criteria applied, as specified by the ClinGen LCA/eoRD VCEP: PM2_Supporting, PP3, PP4, PM3_Strong (VCEP specifications version 1.0.0; date of approval 09/21/2023).

Leber congenital amaurosis 2;C3151086:Retinitis pigmentosa 20 Pathogenic:1Uncertain:1
This sequence change replaces leucine, which is neutral and non-polar, with phenylalanine, which is neutral and non-polar, at codon 328 of the RPE65 protein (p.Leu328Phe). This variant is present in population databases (no rsID available, gnomAD 0.0009%). This missense change has been observed in individual(s) with autosomal recessive early onset retinal dystrophy (PMID: 28393863, 31630094, 35129589). In at least one individual the data is consistent with being in trans (on the opposite chromosome) from a pathogenic variant. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 556178). 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 not expected to disrupt RPE65 protein function with a negative predictive value of 80%. For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. -
