Genes affected
MYOC (HGNC:7610): (myocilin) MYOC encodes the protein myocilin, which is believed to have a role in cytoskeletal function. MYOC is expressed in many occular tissues, including the trabecular meshwork, and was revealed to be the trabecular meshwork glucocorticoid-inducible response protein (TIGR). The trabecular meshwork is a specialized eye tissue essential in regulating intraocular pressure, and mutations in MYOC have been identified as the cause of hereditary juvenile-onset open-angle glaucoma.

Glaucoma Benign:1
Benign, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingIllumina Laboratory Services, IlluminaApr 27, 2017This variant was observed as part of a predisposition screen in an ostensibly healthy population. A literature search was performed for the gene, cDNA change, and amino acid change (where applicable). Publications were found based on this search. The evidence from the literature, in combination with allele frequency data from public databases where available, was sufficient to rule this variant out of causing disease. Therefore, this variant is classified as benign. -

Glaucoma of childhood Benign:1
Likely benign, reviewed by expert panelcurationClinGen Glaucoma Variant Curation Expert PanelMay 09, 2022The c.1193A>G variant in MYOC is a missense variant predicted to cause substitution of Lysine by Arginine at amino acid 398 (p.Lys398Arg). The highest minor allele frequency of this variant was in the European (non-Finnish) population of gnomAD (v2.1.1) = 0.005978, which met the >= 0.001 threshold set for BS1 (772 alleles out of 129,138, meeting the threshold of >= 5 of at least 2,000 observed alleles). The REVEL score = 0.207, which was neither above nor below the thresholds for PP3 (>= 0.7) or BP4 (<= 0.15), predicting a damaging or benign impact on MYOC function. Previous studies (PMID: 16466712, 10545602, 11004290) demonstrated that the Lys398Arg protein had similar solubility and secretion levels to wild type myocilin protein and met the OddsPath threshold for BS3_Moderate (< 0.23), indicating that this variant did not impact protein function. As BS1 was met, PP1 did not apply and segregations were not counted. Although probands with juvenile or primary open angle glaucoma have been reported carrying this variant, PM2_Supporting was not met, therefore PS4 did not apply. In summary, this variant met the criteria to receive a score of -6 and to be classified as likely benign (likely benign classification range -2 to -6) for juvenile open angle glaucoma based on the ACMG/AMP criteria met, as specified by the ClinGen Glaucoma VCEP (v1, 12 Oct 2021): BS1, BS3_Moderate. -
