Variant summary

Our verdict is Benign. The variant received -13 ACMG points: 0P and 13B. BP4BA1BS2

This summary comes from the ClinGen Evidence Repository: NM_001034853.2(RPGR):c.2341G>A (p.Ala781Thr) is a missense variant encoding the substitution of alanine with threonine at amino acid 781. This variant is present in gnomAD v.4.1.0 at a frequency of 0.1538 among hemizygous individuals, with 54,741 variant alleles / 356,024 total alleles, which is higher than the ClinGen X-linked IRD VCEP BA1 threshold of >0.00005 (BA1). This variant has been identified in 13 healthy individuals meeting the BS2 requirement of no electroretinogram defects by the age of 30 years (PMIDs: 12657579, 18552978, 18552978, 32679846, BS2). The computational predictor REVEL gives a score of 0.059, which is below the ClinGen X-linked IRD VCEP threshold of <0.183 and predicts a non-damaging effect on RPGR function. Additionally, the splicing impact predictor SpliceAI gives a delta score of 0.00, which is below the ClinGen X-linked IRD VCEP recommended threshold of <0.1 and does not strongly predict an impact on splicing (BP4_moderate). In summary, this variant is classified as benign for RPGR-related retinopathy based on the ClinGen X-linked Inherited Retinal Disease Expert Panel Specifications to the ACMG/AMP Variant Interpretation Guidelines for RPGR Version 1.0.0; BA1, BS2, and BP4_moderate.

Genes affected
RPGR (HGNC:10295): (retinitis pigmentosa GTPase regulator) This gene encodes a protein with a series of six RCC1-like domains (RLDs), characteristic of the highly conserved guanine nucleotide exchange factors. The encoded protein is found in the Golgi body and interacts with RPGRIP1. This protein localizes to the outer segment of rod photoreceptors and is essential for their viability. Mutations in this gene have been associated with X-linked retinitis pigmentosa (XLRP). Multiple alternatively spliced transcript variants that encode different isoforms of this gene have been reported, but the full-length natures of only some have been determined.
