Genes affected

FAM161A (HGNC:25808): (FAM161 centrosomal protein A) This gene belongs to the FAM161 family. It is expressed mainly in the retina. Mouse studies suggested that this gene is involved in development of retinal progenitors during embryogenesis, and that its activity is restricted to mature photoreceptors after birth. Mutations in this gene cause autosomal recessive retinitis pigmentosa-28. Alternatively spliced transcript variants have been identified.[provided by RefSeq, Jan 2011]

Review Status: criteria provided, single submitter

Collection Method: clinical testing

This sequence change creates a premature translational stop signal (p.Arg523*) in the FAM161A gene. It is expected to result in an absent or disrupted protein product. Loss-of-function variants in FAM161A are known to be pathogenic (PMID: 20705278, 20705279, 24651477). 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 premature translational stop signal has been observed in individuals with retinitis pigmentosa (PMID: 20705279, 28945494). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 38). For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. -

Significance: Pathogenic

Review Status: criteria provided, single submitter

Collection Method: clinical testing

Variant summary: FAM161A c.1567C>T (p.Arg523X) results in a premature termination codon, predicted to cause a truncation of the encoded protein or absence of the protein due to nonsense mediated decay, which are commonly known mechanisms for disease. Truncations downstream of this position have been classified as pathogenic by our laboratory. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 4.8e-05 in 249446 control chromosomes. This frequency is not significantly higher than expected for a pathogenic variant in FAM161A causing Retinitis Pigmentosa (4.8e-05 vs 0.00063), allowing no conclusion about variant significance. c.1567C>T has been reported in the literature in multiple individuals affected with Retinitis Pigmentosa. These data indicate that the variant is very likely to be associated with disease. Eight clinical diagnostic laboratories have submitted clinical-significance assessments for this variant to ClinVar after 2014 without evidence for independent evaluation. All laboratories classified the variant as pathogenic. Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as pathogenic. -

Significance: Pathogenic

Review Status: criteria provided, single submitter

Collection Method: curation

The p.Arg523Ter variant in FAM161A was identified in an individual with Retinitis pigmentosa, via a collaborative study between the Broad Institute's Center for Mendelian Genomics and the Pierce lab (https://oculargenomics.meei.harvard.edu/labs/pierce-lab/lab-members/). Through a review of available evidence we were able to apply the following criteria: PVS1, PM2, PM3-P. Based on this evidence we have classified this variant as Pathogenic. If you have any questions about the classification please reach out to the Pierce Lab. -
