Variant summary

Our verdict is Benign. The variant received -10 ACMG points: 0P and 10B. BP4BA1BP7

This summary comes from the ClinGen Evidence Repository: The c.39T>G variant in MYOC is a synonymous variant (p.Pro13=). The highest minor allele frequency of this variant was in the African/African-American population of gnomAD (v2.1.1) = 0.07477, which met the ≥ 0.01 threshold set for BA1 (1,865 alleles out of 24,942, meeting the threshold of ≥ 5 of at least 2,000 observed alleles). This variant was not predicted to affect splicing, as assessed with SpliceAI (≤ 0.2), with a CADD score (v1.6) = 0.647 which met the ≤ 10 threshold for BP4, and the GERP score = -1.38 (threshold < 0), indicating a lack of conservation at this site (BP7). This evidence suggests that the variant did not impact MYOC function. As BA1 was met, PP1 did not apply and segregations were not counted. Although probands with juvenile or primary open angle glaucoma have been reported carrying this variant, PM2_Supporting was not met, therefore PS4 did not apply. In summary, this variant was classified as benign (BA1 is a stand-alone criterion for a benign level of pathogenicity) for juvenile open angle glaucoma based on the ACMG/AMP criteria met, as specified by the ClinGen Glaucoma VCEP (v1, 12 Oct 2021): BA1, BP4, BP7.

Genes affected
MYOC (HGNC:7610): (myocilin) MYOC encodes the protein myocilin, which is believed to have a role in cytoskeletal function. MYOC is expressed in many occular tissues, including the trabecular meshwork, and was revealed to be the trabecular meshwork glucocorticoid-inducible response protein (TIGR). The trabecular meshwork is a specialized eye tissue essential in regulating intraocular pressure, and mutations in MYOC have been identified as the cause of hereditary juvenile-onset open-angle glaucoma.

Illumina Laboratory Services, Illumina
Significance:Benign
Review Status:criteria provided, single submitter
Collection Method:clinical testing

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 and internal cut-off values, a variant classified as benign is not then subjected to further curation. The score for this variant resulted in a classification of benign for this disease. -

The c.39T>G variant in MYOC is a synonymous variant (p.Pro13=). The highest minor allele frequency of this variant was in the African/African-American population of gnomAD (v2.1.1) = 0.07477, which met the >= 0.01 threshold set for BA1 (1,865 alleles out of 24,942, meeting the threshold of >= 5 of at least 2,000 observed alleles). This variant was not predicted to affect splicing, as assessed with SpliceAI (<= 0.2), with a CADD score (v1.6) = 0.647 which met the <= 10 threshold for BP4, and the GERP score = -1.38 (threshold < 0), indicating a lack of conservation at this site (BP7). This evidence suggests that the variant did not impact MYOC function. As BA1 was met, PP1 did not apply and segregations were not counted. Although probands with juvenile or primary open angle glaucoma have been reported carrying this variant, PM2_Supporting was not met, therefore PS4 did not apply. In summary, this variant was classified as benign (BA1 is a stand-alone criterion for a benign level of pathogenicity) for juvenile open angle glaucoma based on the ACMG/AMP criteria met, as specified by the ClinGen Glaucoma VCEP (v1, 12 Oct 2021): BA1, BP4, BP7. -
