Genes affected
CRX (HGNC:2383): (cone-rod homeobox) The protein encoded by this gene is a photoreceptor-specific transcription factor which plays a role in the differentiation of photoreceptor cells. This homeodomain protein is necessary for the maintenance of normal cone and rod function. Mutations in this gene are associated with photoreceptor degeneration, Leber congenital amaurosis type III and the autosomal dominant cone-rod dystrophy 2. Several alternatively spliced transcript variants of this gene have been described, but the full-length nature of some variants has not been determined. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]

ACMG classification

Classification made for transcript

Verdict is Pathogenic. Variant got 18 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 25 pathogenic variants in the truncated region.
PM2
Very rare variant in population databases, with high coverage;
PP5
Variant 19-47839677-TC-T is Pathogenic according to our data. Variant chr19-47839677-TC-T is described in ClinVar as [Pathogenic]. Clinvar id is 99618.Status of the report is criteria_provided_multiple_submitters_no_conflicts, 2 stars.

Leber congenital amaurosis 7;C3489532:Cone-rod dystrophy 2 Pathogenic:1
Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingInvitaeAug 28, 2023This sequence change creates a premature translational stop signal (p.Ser206Profs*13) in the CRX gene. While this is not anticipated to result in nonsense mediated decay, it is expected to disrupt the last 94 amino acid(s) of the CRX protein. This variant is not present in population databases (gnomAD no frequency). This premature translational stop signal has been observed in individuals with clinical features of cone-rod dystrophy (PMID: 15531334; Invitae). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 99618). Experimental studies and prediction algorithms are not available or were not evaluated, and the functional significance of this variant is currently unknown. This variant disrupts a region of the CRX protein in which other variant(s) (p.Tyr258*) have been determined to be pathogenic (PMID: 22968130, 25270190). This suggests that this is a clinically significant region of the protein, and that variants that disrupt it are likely to be disease-causing. For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. -
