Cataract 13 with adult I phenotype Pathogenic:2
This sequence change replaces glycine, which is neutral and non-polar, with glutamic acid, which is acidic and polar, at codon 348 of the GCNT2 protein (p.Gly348Glu). This variant is present in population databases (rs56141211, gnomAD 0.08%). This missense change has been observed in individuals with cataract and the adult i phenotype (PMID: 11739194, 29914532). It has also been observed to segregate with disease in related individuals. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 9128). Advanced modeling of protein sequence and biophysical properties (such as structural, functional, and spatial information, amino acid conservation, physicochemical variation, residue mobility, and thermodynamic stability) performed at Invitae indicates that this missense variant is expected to disrupt GCNT2 protein function with a positive predictive value of 80%. Experimental studies have shown that this missense change affects GCNT2 function (PMID: 11739194). For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. -
