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.

Likely pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingCentre for Mendelian Genomics, University Medical Centre LjubljanaJun 10, 2019This variant was classified as: Likely pathogenic. The following ACMG criteria were applied in classifying this variant: PS3,PM3,PP3,PP5. -
Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingNeuberg Centre For Genomic Medicine, NCGM-The c.1311A>G p.Ile437Met variant in OPA1 gene has been reported in heterozygous as well as compound heterozygous state in individuals (Schaaf CP et al). Experimental studies have shown a damaging effect (Alessia Nasca et al,2017). This variant is reported with the allele frequency 0.05% in the gnomad and novel in 1000 genome database. It has been submitted to ClinVar with varying interpretations: Likely Pathogenic/Pathogenic/Uncertain Significance/Likely Benign. The amino acid Ile at position 437 is changed to a Met changing protein sequence and it might alter its composition and physico-chemical properties The variant is predicted to be damaging by both SIFT and PolyPhen2. The residue is conserved across species. The amino acid change p.Ile437Met in OPA1 is predicted as conserved by GERP++ and PhyloP across 100 vertebrates. For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. -

Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingVictorian Clinical Genetics Services, Murdoch Childrens Research InstituteJun 11, 2020Based on the classification scheme VCGS_Germline_v1.1.1, this variant is classified as 3A-VUS. Following criteria are met: 0102 - Loss-of-function is a known mechanism of disease for this gene. (N) 0108 - This gene is known to be associated with both recessive and dominant disease. Biallelic variants are associated with early-onset Behr syndrome, whereas heterozygous pathogenic variants have been associated with optic atrophy with or without syndrome (OMIM). (N) 0112 - Variants in this gene are known to have reduced penetrance (PMID: 30165240). (N) 0200 - Variant is predicted to result in a missense amino acid change from isoleucine to methionine (exon 12). (N) 0251 - Variant is heterozygous. (N) 0302 - Variant is present in gnomAD <0.001 (166 heterozygotes, 0 homozygotes). (P) 0501 - Missense variant consistently predicted to be damaging by multiple in silico tools, highly conserved with a minor amino acid change. (P) 0600 - Variant is located in an annotated domain or motif (GTPase; PMID: 24970096). (N) 0705 - No comparable variants have previous evidence for pathogenicity. (N) 0808 - Previous reports of pathogenicity are conflicting (ClinVar). The variant seems to act as a hypomorphic allele rather than causative, resulting in a more severe phenotype, such as optic atrophy plus syndrome or Behr syndrome when in trans with truncating variants (PMID: 21636302, PMID: 24970096, PMID: 25146916, PMID: 30972688, PMID: 17722006). (N) 1002 - Moderate functional evidence show mildly abnormal protein function (PMID: 25146916, PMID: 24970096, PMID: 30293569) (P) 1206 - Variant is paternally inherited.

not provided Pathogenic:2Uncertain:3
Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingLabcorp Genetics (formerly Invitae), LabcorpJan 29, 2024This sequence change replaces isoleucine, which is neutral and non-polar, with methionine, which is neutral and non-polar, at codon 382 of the OPA1 protein (p.Ile382Met). This variant is present in population databases (rs143319805, gnomAD 0.09%), and has an allele count higher than expected for a pathogenic variant. This missense change has been observed in individual(s) with Behr syndrome and/or optic atrophy plus, Behr syndrome, optic neuropathy (PMID: 21636302, 24970096, 25012220, 25146916, 28494813, 30972688, 33841295, 35741767). In at least one individual the data is consistent with being in trans (on the opposite chromosome) from a pathogenic variant. The effect of this variant on homozygous individuals has not been well documented in the literature (PMID: 24970096). Heterozygous individuals may either have mild disease symptoms or be unaffected (PMID:18496845, 19319978, 25012220, 27290639, 32040484). It has also been observed to segregate with disease in related individuals. This variant is also known as c.1311A>G/p.I437M. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 50866). Advanced modeling of protein sequence and biophysical properties (such as structural, functional, and spatial information, amino acid conservation, physicochemical variation, residue mobility, and thermodynamic stability) performed at Invitae indicates that this missense variant is expected to disrupt OPA1 protein function with a positive predictive value of 80%. Studies have shown that this missense change alters OPA1 gene expression (PMID: 24970096, 30293569). For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. -

Uncertain significance, no assertion criteria providedclinical testingPreventionGenetics, part of Exact SciencesDec 12, 2023The OPA1 c.1311A>G variant is predicted to result in the amino acid substitution p.Ile437Met. This variant (also known as c.1146A>G [p.Ile382Met] in transcript NM_015560.2) has been reported in the heterozygous state in patients with autosomal dominant optic atrophy (Schimpf et al. 2008. PubMed ID: 17722006; Ferré et al. 2009. PubMed ID: 19319978; Carelli et al. 2015. PubMed ID: 25146916). However, other individuals who carried this variant in the heterozygous or even homozygous states were reportedly asymptomatic (Bonifert et al. 2014. PubMed ID: 24970096; Bonneau et al. 2014. PubMed ID: 25012220; Carelli et al. 2015. PubMed ID: 25146916). Several reports indicate that this variant may possibly be a mild pathogenic variant that contributes to increased severity of disease when present in the compound heterozygous state with a known pathogenic variant (Bonifert et al. 2014. PubMed ID: 24970096; Bonneau et al. 2014. PubMed ID: 25012220; Nasca et al. 2017. PubMed ID: 28494813). This variant has been classified as likely benign, uncertain, likely pathogenic, and pathogenic in the ClinVar database (https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/clinvar/variation/50866). This variant is reported in 0.098% of alleles in individuals of South Asian descent in gnomAD, including >150 heterozygotes in the entire gnomAD population database. At this time, the clinical significance of this variant is uncertain due to the absence of conclusive functional and genetic evidence. -

Inborn genetic diseases Pathogenic:1
Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingAmbry GeneticsMar 16, 2020The c.1146A>G (p.I382M) alteration is located in exon 12 (coding exon 12) of the OPA1 gene. This alteration results from an A to G substitution at nucleotide position 1146, causing the isoleucine (I) at amino acid position 382 to be replaced by a methionine (M). Based on the available evidence, the OPA1 c.1146A>G (p.I382M) alteration is classified as pathogenic for autosomal recessive Behr syndrome; however, it is unlikely to be causative of autosomal dominant OPA1-related optic atrophy or autosomal dominant OPA1-related optic atrophy plus syndrome. Based on data from gnomAD, the G allele has an overall frequency of 0.06% (166/282274) total alleles studied. The highest observed frequency was 0.1% (30/30614) of South Asian alleles. This alteration has been described in trans with a pathogenic alteration in multiple families presenting with early-onset optic atrophy and variable additional abnormalities which can include neuropathy, ataxia, spasticity, hypotonia, dysphagia, gastrointestinal dysmotility, and neurodevelopmental delay. The c.1146A>G (p.I382M) alteration alone is not observed to be disease-causing in either the homozygous or heterozygous state, but has clinical implications when occurring in trans with another pathogenic allele (Bonifert, 2014; Nasca, 2017; Schaaf, 2011). This alteration is also reported as p.I437M in the literature. This alteration is predicted to be deleterious by in silico analysis. Based on the available evidence, this alteration is classified as pathogenic. -
not specified Uncertain:1
Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingWomen's Health and Genetics/Laboratory Corporation of America, LabCorpFeb 06, 2024Variant summary: OPA1 c.1146A>G (p.Ile382Met) results in a conservative amino acid change located in the Dynamin GTPase domain (IPR001401) of the encoded protein sequence. Four of five in-silico tools predict a damaging effect of the variant on protein function. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 0.00087 in 1607894 control chromosomes in the gnomAD database, including 3 homozygotes. c.1146A>G (also known as c.1311A>G/p.I437M) has been reported in the literature in multiple compound heterozygous individuals affected with Behr syndrome and/or optic atrophy (examples: Schaaf_2011, Bonifert_2014, Bonneau_2014, Nasca_2017, Carelli_2015, Zerem_2019, Othman_2022). In these studies, c.1146A>G variant was inherited from an asymptomatic parent, and at-least one parent was homozygous for this variant (Bonifert_ 2014). It has also been reported in heterozygous state in individuals affected with mitochondrial disorder (Pronicka_2016) and inherited optic neuropathy (Charif_ 2021) without strong evidence for causality. At least one publication reports experimental evidence using a yeast complementation assay that this variant has a very mild growth defect only at dilute concentrations (example: Nasca_2017). Taken together, these results suggest c.1146A>G pathogenic effect is dependent on the presence of a second pathogenic allele in trans. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 50866). The following publications have been ascertained in the context of this evaluation (PMID: 28494813, 24970096, 21636302, 25012220 , 25146916, 33841295, 30972688, 27290639, 31816670, 35741767). Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as uncertain significance for Autosomal Dominant OPA1-Related Disorders. -
