Variant summary

Our verdict is Pathogenic. The variant received 20 ACMG points: 20P and 0B. PVS1PS3PP5_Very_Strong

The NM_001122769.3(LCA5):​c.835C>T​(p.Gln279*) variant causes a stop gained change involving the alteration of a non-conserved nucleotide. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 0.0000595 in 1,613,236 control chromosomes in the GnomAD database, including 1 homozygotes. In-silico tool predicts a pathogenic outcome for this variant. Variant has been reported in ClinVar as Pathogenic (★★). ClinVar reports functional evidence for this variant: "SCV000465592: 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. PMID:21746975" and additional evidence is available in ClinVar. Synonymous variant affecting the same amino acid position (i.e. Q279Q) has been classified as Likely benign. Variant results in nonsense mediated mRNA decay.

Genes affected
LCA5 (HGNC:31923): (lebercilin LCA5) This gene encodes a protein that is thought to be involved in centrosomal or ciliary functions. Mutations in this gene cause Leber congenital amaurosis type V. Alternatively spliced transcript variants are described. [provided by RefSeq, Oct 2009]

ACMG classification

Classification was made for transcript

Our verdict: Pathogenic. The variant received 20 ACMG points.

PVS1
Loss of function variant, product undergoes nonsense mediated mRNA decay. LoF is a known mechanism of disease.
PS3
PS3 evidence extracted from ClinVar submissions: SCV000465592: 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. PMID:21746975; SCV001805283: Published functional studies demonstrate a total loss of protein interaction with intraflagellar transport machinery (PMID: 21606596);
PP5
Variant 6-79493636-G-A is Pathogenic according to our data. Variant chr6-79493636-G-A is described in ClinVar as Pathogenic. ClinVar VariationId is 968.Status of the report is criteria_provided_multiple_submitters_no_conflicts, 2 stars.
