Genes affected
NRL (HGNC:8002): (neural retina leucine zipper) This gene encodes a basic motif-leucine zipper transcription factor of the Maf subfamily. The encoded protein is conserved among vertebrates and is a critical intrinsic regulator of photoceptor development and function. Mutations in this gene have been associated with retinitis pigmentosa and retinal degenerative diseases. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]

ACMG classification

Classification made for transcript

Verdict is Likely_pathogenic. Variant got 6 ACMG points.

PVS1
Loss of function variant, product does not undergo nonsense mediated mRNA decay. Variant is located in the 3'-most exon, not predicted to undergo nonsense mediated mRNA decay. There are 12 pathogenic variants in the truncated region.
PM2
Very rare variant in population databases, with high coverage;

Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingLabcorp Genetics (formerly Invitae), LabcorpSep 13, 2022This sequence change creates a premature translational stop signal (p.Glu156Alafs*71) in the NRL gene. While this is not anticipated to result in nonsense mediated decay, it is expected to disrupt the last 82 amino acid(s) of the NRL protein. This variant is not present in population databases (gnomAD no frequency). This variant has not been reported in the literature in individuals affected with NRL-related conditions. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 523490). This variant disrupts a region of the NRL protein in which other variant(s) (p.Cys219Valfs*4) have been observed in individuals with NRL-related conditions (PMID: 29385733). This suggests that this is a clinically significant region of the protein, and that variants that disrupt it are likely to be disease-causing. 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. -
