Variant summary

Our verdict is Pathogenic. Variant got 12 ACMG points: 12P and 0B. PVS1 PM2 PP5_Moderate

The NM_000180.4(GUCY2D):​c.1371C>A​(p.Cys457*) variant causes a stop gained change involving the alteration of a non-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 Pathogenic (★). Synonymous variant affecting the same amino acid position (i.e. C457C) has been classified as Likely benign. Variant results in nonsense mediated mRNA decay.

Genes affected

GUCY2D (HGNC:4689): (guanylate cyclase 2D, retinal) This gene encodes a retina-specific guanylate cyclase, which is a member of the membrane guanylyl cyclase family. Like other membrane guanylyl cyclases, this enzyme has a hydrophobic amino-terminal signal sequence followed by a large extracellular domain, a single membrane spanning domain, a kinase homology domain, and a guanylyl cyclase catalytic domain. In contrast to other membrane guanylyl cyclases, this enzyme is not activated by natriuretic peptides. Mutations in this gene result in Leber congenital amaurosis and cone-rod dystrophy-6 diseases.

ACMG classification

Verdict is Pathogenic. Variant got 12 ACMG points.

• PVS1: Loss of function variant, product undergoes nonsense mediated mRNA decay. LoF is a known mechanism of disease.
• PM2: Very rare variant in population databases, with high coverage
• PP5: Variant 17-8006707-C-A is Pathogenic according to our data. Variant chr17-8006707-C-A is described in ClinVar as [Pathogenic]. Clinvar id is 2938421.Status of the report is criteria_provided_single_submitter, 1 stars.

This sequence change creates a premature translational stop signal (p.Cys457*) in the GUCY2D gene. It is expected to result in an absent or disrupted protein product. Loss-of-function variants in GUCY2D are known to be pathogenic (PMID: 10951519, 11328726). This variant is not present in population databases (gnomAD no frequency). This variant has not been reported in the literature in individuals affected with GUCY2D-related conditions. For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. -
