Genes affected
BEST1 (HGNC:12703): (bestrophin 1) This gene encodes a member of the bestrophin gene family. This small gene family is characterized by proteins with a highly conserved N-terminus with four to six transmembrane domains. Bestrophins may form chloride ion channels or may regulate voltage-gated L-type calcium-ion channels. Bestrophins are generally believed to form calcium-activated chloride-ion channels in epithelial cells but they have also been shown to be highly permeable to bicarbonate ion transport in retinal tissue. Mutations in this gene are responsible for juvenile-onset vitelliform macular dystrophy (VMD2), also known as Best macular dystrophy, in addition to adult-onset vitelliform macular dystrophy (AVMD) and other retinopathies. Alternative splicing results in multiple variants encoding distinct isoforms.[provided by RefSeq, Nov 2008]

This sequence change creates a premature translational stop signal (p.Arg200*) in the BEST1 gene. It is expected to result in an absent or disrupted protein product. Loss-of-function variants in BEST1 are known to be pathogenic (PMID: 21825197). This variant is present in population databases (rs121918286, gnomAD 0.02%). This premature translational stop signal has been observed in individuals with autosomal recessive bestrophinopathy (PMID: 18179881, 21412020). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 2741). Algorithms developed to predict the effect of sequence changes on RNA splicing suggest that this variant may disrupt the consensus splice site. For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. -
