Genes affected
PDE6B (HGNC:8786): (phosphodiesterase 6B) Photon absorption triggers a signaling cascade in rod photoreceptors that activates cGMP phosphodiesterase (PDE), resulting in the rapid hydrolysis of cGMP, closure of cGMP-gated cation channels, and hyperpolarization of the cell. PDE is a peripheral membrane heterotrimeric enzyme made up of alpha, beta, and gamma subunits. This gene encodes the beta subunit. Mutations in this gene result in retinitis pigmentosa and autosomal dominant congenital stationary night blindness. Multiple transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been found for this gene. [provided by RefSeq, Feb 2009]

Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingInvitaeNov 13, 2023This sequence change replaces arginine, which is basic and polar, with cysteine, which is neutral and slightly polar, at codon 560 of the PDE6B protein (p.Arg560Cys). The frequency data for this variant in the population databases is considered unreliable, as metrics indicate poor data quality at this position in the gnomAD database. This missense change has been observed in individuals with autosomal recessive retinitis pigmentosa (PMID: 25823529, 28041643, 30998820). It has also been observed to segregate with disease in related individuals. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 217798). Advanced modeling of protein sequence and biophysical properties (such as structural, functional, and spatial information, amino acid conservation, physicochemical variation, residue mobility, and thermodynamic stability) performed at Invitae indicates that this missense variant is expected to disrupt PDE6B protein function with a positive predictive value of 95%. Experimental studies have shown that this missense change affects PDE6B function (PMID: 17267005). For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. -
