Genes affected

RPE65 (HGNC:10294): (retinoid isomerohydrolase RPE65) The protein encoded by this gene is a component of the vitamin A visual cycle of the retina which supplies the 11-cis retinal chromophore of the photoreceptors opsin visual pigments. It is a member of the carotenoid cleavage oxygenase superfamily. All members of this superfamily are non-heme iron oxygenases with a seven-bladed propeller fold and oxidatively cleave carotenoid carbon:carbon double bonds. However, the protein encoded by this gene has acquired a divergent function that involves the concerted O-alkyl ester cleavage of its all-trans retinyl ester substrate and all-trans to 11-cis double bond isomerization of the retinyl moiety. As such, it performs the essential enzymatic isomerization step in the synthesis of 11-cis retinal. Mutations in this gene are associated with early-onset severe blinding disorders such as Leber congenital. [provided by RefSeq, Oct 2017]

ACMG classification

Our verdict: Likely_pathogenic. The variant received 8 ACMG points.

• PM1: In a hotspot region, there are 7 aminoacids with missense pathogenic changes in the window of +-8 aminoacids around while only 0 benign, 9 uncertain in NM_000329.3
• PP2: Missense variant in the gene, where a lot of missense mutations are associated with disease in ClinVar. The gene has 97 curated pathogenic missense variants (we use a threshold of 10). The gene has 15 curated benign missense variants. Gene score misZ: -0.24008 (below the threshold of 3.09). Trascript score misZ: 0.28272 (below the threshold of 3.09). GenCC associations: The gene is linked to Leber congenital amaurosis 2, retinitis pigmentosa 87 with choroidal involvement, Leber congenital amaurosis, RPE65-related recessive retinopathy, retinitis pigmentosa, retinitis pigmentosa 20, RPE65-related dominant retinopathy, severe early-childhood-onset retinal dystrophy.
• PP3: MetaRNN computational evidence supports a deleterious effect, 0.957
• PP5: Variant 1-68446740-A-G is Pathogenic according to our data. Variant chr1-68446740-A-G is described in ClinVar as Conflicting_classifications_of_pathogenicity. ClinVar VariationId is 467826.

This sequence change replaces phenylalanine, which is neutral and non-polar, with serine, which is neutral and polar, at codon 72 of the RPE65 protein (p.Phe72Ser). This variant is not present in population databases (gnomAD no frequency). This missense change has been observed in individual(s) with autosomal recessive inherited retinal dystrophy (internal data). In at least one individual the data is consistent with being in trans (on the opposite chromosome) from a pathogenic variant. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 467826). Invitae Evidence Modeling of protein sequence and biophysical properties (such as structural, functional, and spatial information, amino acid conservation, physicochemical variation, residue mobility, and thermodynamic stability) has been performed for this missense variant. However, the output from this modeling did not meet the statistical confidence thresholds required to predict the impact of this variant on RPE65 protein function. 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. -
