Genes affected
OPA1 (HGNC:8140): (OPA1 mitochondrial dynamin like GTPase) The protein encoded by this gene is a nuclear-encoded mitochondrial protein with similarity to dynamin-related GTPases. The encoded protein localizes to the inner mitochondrial membrane and helps regulate mitochondrial stability and energy output. This protein also sequesters cytochrome c. Mutations in this gene have been associated with optic atrophy type 1, which is a dominantly inherited optic neuropathy resulting in progressive loss of visual acuity, leading in many cases to legal blindness.

OPA1-AS1 (HGNC:40421): (OPA1 antisense RNA 1)

Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingGeneDxMay 11, 2018The R247H variant in the OPA1 gene has been reported previously in an individual with optic neuropathy. Studies in fibroblasts from this affected individual demonstrated increased susceptibility to apoptosis, abnormal mitochondrial network filamentation, and altered OPA1 protein profile; however, the significance of these findings is unknown (Cornille et al., 2008). The R247H variant is observed in 9/277,158 (0.0032%) alleles in large population cohorts (Lek et al., 2016). The R247H variant is a conservative amino acid substitution, which is not likely to impact secondary protein structure as these residues share similar properties. In-silico analyses, including protein predictors and evolutionary conservation, support that this variant does not alter protein structure/function. We interpret R247H as a variant of uncertain significance. -
Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingInvitaeAug 11, 2023This missense change has been observed in individual(s) with OPA1-related conditions (PMID: 18360822). The OPA1 gene has multiple clinically relevant transcripts. This variant occurs in alternate transcript NM_130837.2, and corresponds to NM_015560.2:c.625-5459G>A in the primary transcript. This sequence change replaces arginine, which is basic and polar, with histidine, which is basic and polar, at codon 247 of the OPA1 protein (p.Arg247His). This variant is present in population databases (rs138350727, gnomAD 0.01%). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 65755). Experimental studies and prediction algorithms are not available or were not evaluated, and the functional significance of this variant is currently unknown. Algorithms developed to predict the effect of sequence changes on RNA splicing suggest that this variant is not likely to affect RNA splicing. In summary, the available evidence is currently insufficient to determine the role of this variant in disease. Therefore, it has been classified as a Variant of Uncertain Significance. -
