Variant summary
Our verdict is Pathogenic. Variant got 16 ACMG points: 16P and 0B. PM1PM2PM5PP3_ModeratePP5_Very_Strong
The NM_001298.3(CNGA3):c.1688G>A(p.Arg563His) variant causes a missense change involving the alteration of a conserved nucleotide. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 0.0000427 in 1,614,056 control chromosomes in the GnomAD database, with no homozygous occurrence. In-silico tool predicts a pathogenic outcome for this variant. 13/21 in silico tools predict a damaging 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. R563C) has been classified as Likely pathogenic.

The R563H pathogenic variant in the CNGA3 gene has been reported previously in two individuals with incomplete achromatopsia and one individual with cone dystrophy who were compound heterozygous for the R563H variant and another missense variant (Wissinger et al., 2001). Functional studies in Xenopus oocytes with the R563H variant show that this variant impacts the function of cyclic nucleotide-gated channels (Liu et al., 2005); additional functional studies in 661W cells with the R563H variant also confirm that the variant impacts the function of the protein (Duricka et al., 2012). The R563H variant was not observed in approximately 6500 individuals of European and African American ancestry in the NHLBI Exome Sequencing Project, indicating it is not a common benign variant in these populations. The R563H variant is a conservative amino acid substitution, which occurs within the cGMP-binding domain at a position that is conserved across species. In silico analysis predicts this variant is probably damaging to the protein structure/function. We interpret R563H as a pathogenic variant. -

This sequence change replaces arginine, which is basic and polar, with histidine, which is basic and polar, at codon 563 of the CNGA3 protein (p.Arg563His). This variant is present in population databases (rs552069173, gnomAD 0.03%). This missense change has been observed in individual(s) with inherited retinal dystrophy (PMID: 11536077; internal data). In at least one individual the data is consistent with being in trans (on the opposite chromosome) from a pathogenic variant. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 265467). Invitae Evidence Modeling of protein sequence and biophysical properties (such as structural, functional, and spatial information, amino acid conservation, physicochemical variation, residue mobility, and thermodynamic stability) indicates that this missense variant is expected to disrupt CNGA3 protein function with a positive predictive value of 95%. Experimental studies have shown that this missense change affects CNGA3 function (PMID: 15743887, 17693388). For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. -

Achromatopsia 2 Pathogenic:2
Variant summary: CNGA3 c.1688G>A (p.Arg563His) results in a non-conservative amino acid change located in the Cyclic nucleotide-binding domain (IPR000595) of the encoded protein sequence. Five of five in-silico tools predict a damaging effect of the variant on protein function. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 7.6e-05 in 251250 control chromosomes (gnomAD). The available data on variant occurrences in the general population are insufficient to allow any conclusion about variant significance. c.1688G>A has been reported in the literature in both homozygous and compound heterozygous individuals affected with Achromatopsia (e.g., Wissinger_2001, Weisschuh_2020, Andersen_2023). These data indicate that the variant is very likely to be associated with disease. The following publications have been ascertained in the context of this evaluation (PMID: 36980963, 32531858, 11536077). Six submitters have reported clinical-significance assessments for this variant to ClinVar after 2014. All submitters classified the variant as pathogenic/likely pathogenic. Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as pathogenic. -
