Variant summary

Our verdict is Pathogenic. The variant received 19 ACMG points: 19P and 0B. PM1 PM2 PM5 PP2 PP3_Strong PP5_Very_Strong

The NM_004183.4(BEST1):​c.680A>G​(p.Tyr227Cys) variant causes a missense change involving the alteration of a conserved nucleotide. 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. Y227N) has been classified as 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]

ACMG classification

Our verdict: Pathogenic. The variant received 19 ACMG points.

• PM1: In a hotspot region, there are 24 aminoacids with missense pathogenic changes in the window of +-8 aminoacids around while only 0 benign, 8 uncertain 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 chr11-61957429-T-A is described in ClinVar as Pathogenic. ClinVar VariationId is 2731.Status of the report is criteria_provided_multiple_submitters_no_conflicts, 2 stars.
• PP2: Missense variant in the gene, where a lot of missense mutations are associated with disease in ClinVar. The gene has 209 curated pathogenic missense variants (we use a threshold of 10). The gene has 23 curated benign missense variants. Gene score misZ: 0.61695 (below the threshold of 3.09). Trascript score misZ: 0.88358 (below the threshold of 3.09). GenCC associations: The gene is linked to vitelliform macular dystrophy 2, MRCS syndrome, autosomal recessive bestrophinopathy, autosomal dominant vitreoretinochoroidopathy, retinitis pigmentosa, retinitis pigmentosa 50, inherited retinal dystrophy, adult-onset foveomacular vitelliform dystrophy, nanophthalmia.
• PP3: MetaRNN computational evidence supports a deleterious effect, 0.99
• PP5: Variant 11-61957430-A-G is Pathogenic according to our data. Variant chr11-61957430-A-G is described in ClinVar as Pathogenic/Likely_pathogenic. ClinVar VariationId is 2749.Status of the report is criteria_provided_multiple_submitters_no_conflicts, 2 stars.
