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]
FTH1 (HGNC:3976): (ferritin heavy chain 1) This gene encodes the heavy subunit of ferritin, the major intracellular iron storage protein in prokaryotes and eukaryotes. It is composed of 24 subunits of the heavy and light ferritin chains. Variation in ferritin subunit composition may affect the rates of iron uptake and release in different tissues. A major function of ferritin is the storage of iron in a soluble and nontoxic state. Defects in ferritin proteins are associated with several neurodegenerative diseases. This gene has multiple pseudogenes. Several alternatively spliced transcript variants have been observed, but their biological validity has not been determined. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]

Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingLabcorp Genetics (formerly Invitae), LabcorpOct 29, 2023This sequence change creates a premature translational stop signal (p.His490Glnfs*24) in the BEST1 gene. It is expected to result in an absent or disrupted protein product. Loss-of-function variants in BEST1 are known to be pathogenic (PMID: 21825197). This variant is present in population databases (rs764984804, gnomAD 0.007%). This premature translational stop signal has been observed in individual(s) with autosomal recessive BEST1-related disease (PMID: 21203346, 21273940). This variant has been reported in individual(s) with autosomal dominant BEST1-related disease (PMID: 10331951; Invitae); however, the role of the variant in this condition is currently unclear. This variant is also known as 1574delCA and His490del2CTTCA. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 2739). For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. -

Autosomal recessive bestrophinopathy Pathogenic:1
Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testing3billionFeb 23, 2023The variant is observed at an extremely low frequency in the gnomAD v2.1.1 dataset (total allele frequency: 0.002%). This homozygous variant was predicted to result in a loss or disruption of normal protein function through nonsense-mediated decay (NMD) or protein truncation. Multiple pathogenic variants are reported downstream of the variant. The variant has been reported at least twice as pathogenic with clinical assertions and evidence for the classification (ClinVar ID: VCV000002739 / PMID: 10331951). Therefore, this variant is classified as Pathogenic according to the recommendation of ACMG/AMP guideline. -
BEST1-related disorder Pathogenic:1
Pathogenic, no assertion criteria providedclinical testingPreventionGenetics, part of Exact SciencesSep 25, 2024The BEST1 c.1470_1471delCA variant is predicted to result in a frameshift and premature protein termination (p.His490Glnfs*24). This variant has been reported in a families and patients with both dominant and recessive forms of BEST1-related retinal disease (autosomal dominant: referred to as 1574delCA in Family I, Caldwell et al. 1999. PubMed ID: 10331951) (autosomal recessive: Kinnick et al. 2011. PubMed ID: 21273940; Subject 2, Davidson et al. 2010. PubMed ID: 21203346). In a functional study, this variant did not impact proper localization of the protein to the plasma membrane (Johnson et al. 2015. PubMed ID: 24560797). This variant is reported in 0.012% of alleles in individuals of African descent in gnomAD. Frameshift variants in BEST1 are expected to be pathogenic. This variant is interpreted as pathogenic. -
