Variant summary

Our verdict is Likely pathogenic. Variant got 8 ACMG points: 8P and 0B. PM1PM2PM5PP3PP5

The NM_000329.3(RPE65):​c.1087C>T​(p.Pro363Ser) variant causes a missense change involving the alteration of a conserved nucleotide. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 0.00000684 in 1,461,686 control chromosomes in the GnomAD database, with no homozygous occurrence. In-silico tool predicts a pathogenic outcome for this variant. Variant has been reported in ClinVar as Conflicting classifications of pathogenicity (no stars). Another variant affecting the same amino acid position, but resulting in a different missense (i.e. P363T) has been classified as Pathogenic.

Genes affected
RPE65 (HGNC:10294): (retinoid isomerohydrolase RPE65) The protein encoded by this gene is a component of the vitamin A visual cycle of the retina which supplies the 11-cis retinal chromophore of the photoreceptors opsin visual pigments. It is a member of the carotenoid cleavage oxygenase superfamily. All members of this superfamily are non-heme iron oxygenases with a seven-bladed propeller fold and oxidatively cleave carotenoid carbon:carbon double bonds. However, the protein encoded by this gene has acquired a divergent function that involves the concerted O-alkyl ester cleavage of its all-trans retinyl ester substrate and all-trans to 11-cis double bond isomerization of the retinyl moiety. As such, it performs the essential enzymatic isomerization step in the synthesis of 11-cis retinal. Mutations in this gene are associated with early-onset severe blinding disorders such as Leber congenital. [provided by RefSeq, Oct 2017]

Leber congenital amaurosis 2 Uncertain:1
Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingNeuberg Centre For Genomic Medicine, NCGMMay 20, 2023The observed missense c.1087C>T (p.Pro363Ser) variant in RPE65 gene has not been reported previously as a pathogenic variant nor as a benign variant, to our knowledge. The p.Pro363Ser variant is absent in gnomAD Exomes. This variant has been submitted to the ClinVar database as Likely Pathogenic. Computational evidence (Polyphen - Pssibly Damaging, SIFT - Tolerated and MutationTaster - Disease Causing) predicts conflicting evidence on protein structure and function for this variant. The amino acid change p.Pro363Ser in RPE65 is predicted as conserved by GERP++ and PhyloP across 100 vertebrates. The amino acid Pro at position 363 is changed to a Ser changing protein sequence and it might alter its composition and physico-chemical properties. However, additional functional studies will be required to prove the pathogenicity of this variant. For these reasons, this variant has been classified as a Variant of Uncertain Significance (VUS). -
