Genes affected

MERTK (HGNC:7027): (MER proto-oncogene, tyrosine kinase) This gene is a member of the MER/AXL/TYRO3 receptor kinase family and encodes a transmembrane protein with two fibronectin type-III domains, two Ig-like C2-type (immunoglobulin-like) domains, and one tyrosine kinase domain. Mutations in this gene have been associated with disruption of the retinal pigment epithelium (RPE) phagocytosis pathway and onset of autosomal recessive retinitis pigmentosa (RP).

ACMG classification

Verdict is Benign. Variant got -12 ACMG points.

• BP4: Computational evidence support a benign effect (BayesDel_noAF=-0.91).
• BA1: GnomAd4 highest subpopulation (SAS) allele frequency at 95% confidence interval = 0.311 is higher than 0.05.
