Variant summary

Our verdict is Pathogenic. Variant got 10 ACMG points: 10P and 0B. PM1PM2PM5PP3_ModeratePP5_Moderate

The NM_004183.4(BEST1):​c.535A>G​(p.Asn179Asp) variant causes a missense change. The variant was absent in control chromosomes in GnomAD project. In-silico tool predicts a pathogenic outcome for this variant. Variant has been reported in ClinVar as Likely pathogenic (★). Another variant affecting the same amino acid position, but resulting in a different missense (i.e. N179H) has been classified as Likely pathogenic.

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]

PM1
In a transmembrane_region Helical (size 20) in uniprot entity BEST1_HUMAN there are 18 pathogenic changes around while only 0 benign (100%) in NM_004183.4
PM2
Very rare variant in population databases, with high coverage;
PM5
Other missense variant is known to change same aminoacid residue: Variant chr11-61956897-A-C is described in Lovd as [Likely_pathogenic].
PP3
MetaRNN computational evidence supports a deleterious effect, 0.885
PP5
Variant 11-61956897-A-G is Pathogenic according to our data. Variant chr11-61956897-A-G is described in ClinVar as [Likely_pathogenic]. Clinvar id is 438484.Status of the report is criteria_provided_single_submitter, 1 stars. Variant chr11-61956897-A-G is described in Lovd as [Likely_pathogenic].
