Variant summary

Our verdict is Benign. The variant received -9 ACMG points: 0P and 9B. BP4BA1

This summary comes from the ClinGen Evidence Repository: The NM_001034853.2(RPGR):c.1697G>A (p.Gly566Glu) variant is a missense variant encoding the substitution of Glycine with Glutamic acid at amino acid 566. This variant is present in gnomAD v.4.1.0 at a frequency of 0.06732 among hemizygous individuals, with 26691 variant alleles / 396470 total alleles, which is higher than the ClinGen X-linked IRD VCEP BA1 threshold of >0.00005 (BA1). This variant was shown to have normal protein function and localization (PMID:30622176). The computational predictor REVEL gives a score of 0.063, which is below the ClinGen X-linked IRD VCEP threshold of < 0.183 and predicts a non-damaging effect on RPGR function. Additionally, the splicing impact predictor SpliceAI gives a delta score of 0.05, which is below the ClinGen X-linked IRD VCEP recommended threshold of <0.1 and does not strongly predict an impact on splicing (BP4_moderate).In summary, this variant is classified as likely benign for RPGR-related retinopathy based on the ClinGen X-linked Inherited Retinal Disease Expert Panel Specifications to the ACMG/AMP Variant Interpretation Guidelines for RPGR Version 1.0.0: BA1 and BP4_moderate (date of approval 05/15/2025).

Genes affected
RPGR (HGNC:10295): (retinitis pigmentosa GTPase regulator) This gene encodes a protein with a series of six RCC1-like domains (RLDs), characteristic of the highly conserved guanine nucleotide exchange factors. The encoded protein is found in the Golgi body and interacts with RPGRIP1. This protein localizes to the outer segment of rod photoreceptors and is essential for their viability. Mutations in this gene have been associated with X-linked retinitis pigmentosa (XLRP). Multiple alternatively spliced transcript variants that encode different isoforms of this gene have been reported, but the full-length natures of only some have been determined.

This alteration is classified as benign based on a combination of the following: seen in unaffected individuals, population frequency, intact protein function, lack of segregation with disease, co-occurrence, RNA analysis, in silico models, amino acid conservation, lack of disease association in case-control studies, and/or the mechanism of disease or impacted region is inconsistent with a known cause of pathogenicity. -

The NM_001034853.2(RPGR):c.1697G>A (p.Gly566Glu) variant is a missense variant encoding the substitution of Glycine with Glutamic acid at amino acid 566. This variant is present in gnomAD v.4.1.0 at a frequency of 0.06732 among hemizygous individuals, with 26691 variant alleles / 396470 total alleles, which is higher than the ClinGen X-linked IRD VCEP BA1 threshold of >0.00005 (BA1). This variant was shown to have normal protein function and localization (PMID: 30622176). The computational predictor REVEL gives a score of 0.063, which is below the ClinGen X-linked IRD VCEP threshold of < 0.183 and predicts a non-damaging effect on RPGR function. Additionally, the splicing impact predictor SpliceAI gives a delta score of 0.05, which is below the ClinGen X-linked IRD VCEP recommended threshold of <0.1 and does not strongly predict an impact on splicing (BP4_moderate).In summary, this variant is classified as likely benign for RPGR-related retinopathy based on the ClinGen X-linked Inherited Retinal Disease Expert Panel Specifications to the ACMG/AMP Variant Interpretation Guidelines for RPGR Version 1.0.0: BA1 and BP4_moderate (date of approval 05/15/2025). -
