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.

The RPGR c.3096_3097del variant was identified in an individual with retinitis pigmentosa with a presumed X-linked inheritance pattern. Through a review of available evidence we were able to apply the following criteria: PVS1, PS1, PM2. Based on this evidence we have classified this variant as Pathogenic. -

Review Status:criteria provided, single submitter

The RPGR c.3096_3097delGG variant is predicted to result in a frameshift and premature protein termination (p.Glu1033Argfs*45). This variant can also be designated as g.ORF15+1343_1344del. This variant has been reported in several individuals with retinitis pigmentosa (Yang et al. 2002. PubMed ID: 11875055; Demirci et al. 2002. PubMed ID: 11857109; Table S1 in Maeda et al. 2018. PubMed ID: 29785639; Tuupanen et al. 2022. PubMed ID: 34985506). This variant has not been reported in a large population database (http://gnomad.broadinstitute.org), indicating this variant is rare. Frameshift variants in RPGR are expected to be pathogenic, and this variant has been classified as pathogenic by multiple independent submitters to the ClinVar database (https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/clinvar/variation/9910). Given the evidence, we interpret c.3096_3097del (p.Glu1033Argfs*45) as pathogenic. -

Review Status:criteria provided, single submitter
Collection Method:clinical testing

This sequence change creates a premature translational stop signal (p.Glu1033Argfs*45) in the RPGR (ORF15) gene. While this is not anticipated to result in nonsense mediated decay, it is expected to disrupt the last 120 amino acid(s) of the RPGR (ORF15) protein. This variant is not present in population databases (gnomAD no frequency). This premature translational stop signal has been observed in individual(s) with cone dystrophy (PMID: 11875055, 29785639). This variant is also known as ORF15+1343_1344delGG. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 9910). This variant disrupts a region of the RPGR (ORF15) protein in which other variant(s) (p.Leu1130Lysfs*13) have been determined to be pathogenic (PMID: 22264887; internal data). This suggests that this is a clinically significant region of the protein, and that variants that disrupt it are likely to be disease-causing. For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. -

Review Status:criteria provided, single submitter
Collection Method:curation

The homozygous p.Glu1033ArgfsTer45 variant in RPGR was identified by our study in one (female) individual with retinitis pigmentosa. The p.Glu1033ArgfsTer45 variant in RPGR has been previously reported in 9 unrelated individuals with RPGR-related retinopathy (PMID: 14564670, PMID: 34985506, PMID: 11857109, PMID: 29785639, PMID: 11875055, ClinVar SCV000606851.1) and segregated with disease in 22 affected relatives from three families (PMID: 11857109, PMID: 11875055). The number of reported affected individuals with this variant is greater than expected compared to non-affected individuals with this variant. This variant has also been reported in ClinVar (Variation ID: 9910) and has been interpreted as pathogenic by multiple submitters. This variant was absent from large population studies. This variant is predicted to cause a frameshift, which alters the protein’s amino acid sequence beginning at position 1033 and leads to a premature termination codon 45 amino acids downstream. This termination codon occurs within the last exon and is more likely to escape nonsense mediated decay (NMD) and result in a truncated protein. Loss of function of the RPGR gene is an established disease mechanism in X-linked retinitis pigmentosa 3. In summary, this variant meets criteria to be classified as pathogenic for X-linked retinitis pigmentosa 3. ACMG/AMP Criteria applied: PVS1_Moderate, PS4, PM2_Supporting, PP1_Strong (Richards 2015). -
