Variant summary
Our verdict is Benign. The variant received -13 ACMG points: 3P and 16B. PM1PP3BP4_StrongBP6_Very_StrongBS1
The NM_019098.5(CNGB3):c.1405T>G(p.Tyr469Asp) variant causes a missense change. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 0.000431 in 1,614,036 control chromosomes in the GnomAD database, including 1 homozygotes. In-silico tool predicts a benign outcome for this variant. Variant has been reported in ClinVar as Likely benign (★★). Another variant affecting the same amino acid position, but resulting in a different missense (i.e. Y469N) has been classified as Likely benign.

Variant summary: CNGB3 c.1405T>G (p.Tyr469Asp) results in a non-conservative amino acid change in the encoded protein sequence. Four of five in-silico tools predict a damaging effect of the variant on protein function. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 0.00059 in 251070 control chromosomes, predominantly at a frequency of 0.0082 within the African or African-American subpopulation in the gnomAD database, including 1 homozygote. The observed variant frequency within African or African-American control individuals in the gnomAD database is approximately 1.64 fold of the estimated maximal expected allele frequency for a pathogenic variant in CNGB3 causing Achromatopsia phenotype (0.005), suggesting that the variant is a benign polymorphism found primarily in populations of African or African-American origin. c.1405T>G has been reported in the literature in settings of limited gene panel testing in heterozygous individuals with no reported second variant affected with achromatopsia (e.g. Mayer_2017, Weisschuh_2020), in at least one compound heterozygous individual affected with macular degeneration (e.g. Sun_2020, Nishiguchi_2005), or by WES in a heterozygous individual affected with severe Retinitis Pigmentosa (e.g. Ganapathi_2022). These report(s) do not provide unequivocal conclusions about association of the variant with Achromatopsia. One publication reports experimental evidence evaluating an impact on protein function, suggesting the variant may enhance the intrinsic (ligand independent) gating properties of CNG channels in vitro, however, additional evidence is necessary to allow convincing conclusions about the variant effect in disease (e.g. Meighan_2015). The following publications have been ascertained in the context of this evaluation (PMID: 35672425, 28795510, 26106334, 15712225, 32913385, 31544997). Five submitters have cited clinical-significance assessments for this variant to ClinVar after 2014, classifying the variant as benign (n=2), likely benign (n=1), uncertain significance (n=1), or likely pathogenic (n=1). Based on the conflicting evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as likely benign. -
The p.Tyr469Asp variant in CNGB3 is classified as likely benign because it has been identified in 0.8% (347/41448) of African chromosomes, including 1 homozygote by gnomAD (http://gnomad.broadinstitute.org). ACMG/AMP Criteria applied: BS1. -
