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

Specifications for RPE65 are available in the ClinGen Criteria Specification Registry and recommended for reference when assigning criteria.

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, 10 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 retinitis pigmentosa 20, RPE65-related recessive retinopathy, Leber congenital amaurosis 2, RPE65-related dominant retinopathy, Leber congenital amaurosis, retinitis pigmentosa 87 with choroidal involvement, retinitis pigmentosa, 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.
