The LCA5 c.835C>T (p.Gln279Ter) variant is a stop-gained variant that is described in four studies, in which it was found in a homozygous state in five patients with Leber congenital amaurosis (LCA) and in a compound heterozygous state in three patients with LCA (den Hollander et al. 2007; Jacobson et al. 2009; MacKay et al. 2013; Farwell et al. 2015). The variant was absent from 180 total controls but is reported at a frequency of 0.00035 in the European American population of the Exome Sequencing Project. Functional studies by Boldt et al. (2011) showed that the p.Gln279Ter variant resulted in a total loss of the protein interactions shown by wild type libercilin with the intraflagellar transport (IFT) machinery. IFT-dependent protein transport is an evolutionarily conserved basic mechanism found in all cilia. The variant also caused a loss of additional protein binding capabilities. Based on the collective evidence, the p.Gln279Ter variant is classified as pathogenic for Leber congenital amaurosis. This variant was observed by ICSL as part of a predisposition screen in an ostensibly healthy population. -

The LCA5 c.835C>T variant was identified in an individual with retinitis pigmentosa with a presumed recessive inheritance pattern. Through a review of available evidence we were able to apply the following criteria: PVS1, PM2, PM3, PP1-S. Based on this evidence we have classified this variant as Pathogenic. -

Significance: Pathogenic

Review Status: criteria provided, single submitter

Collection Method: clinical testing

This sequence change creates a premature translational stop signal (p.Gln279*) in the LCA5 gene. It is expected to result in an absent or disrupted protein product. Loss-of-function variants in LCA5 are known to be pathogenic (PMID: 17546029, 23946133). This variant is present in population databases (rs121918165, gnomAD 0.2%), including at least one homozygous and/or hemizygous individual. This premature translational stop signal has been observed in individuals with Leber congenital amaurosis (PMID: 17546029, 23946133). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 968). For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. -
