Variant summary

Our verdict is Likely benign. Variant got -6 ACMG points: 0P and 6B. BP4_Moderate BS2

The ENST00000376707.4(VSX1):​c.650G>T​(p.Arg217Leu) variant causes a missense change involving the alteration of a non-conserved nucleotide. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 0.0000041 in 1,461,890 control chromosomes in the GnomAD database, with no homozygous occurrence. In-silico tool predicts a benign outcome for this variant. 13/15 in silico tools predict a benign outcome for this variant. No clinical diagnostic laboratories have submitted clinical-significance assessments for this variant to ClinVar. Another variant affecting the same amino acid position, but resulting in a different missense (i.e. R217H) has been classified as Benign.

Genes affected

VSX1 (HGNC:12723): (visual system homeobox 1) The protein encoded by this gene contains a paired-like homeodomain and binds to the core of the locus control region of the red/green visual pigment gene cluster. The encoded protein may regulate expression of the cone opsin genes early in development. Mutations in this gene can cause posterior polymorphous corneal dystrophy and keratoconus. Alternatively spliced transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been described. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]

ACMG classification

Verdict is Likely_benign. Variant got -6 ACMG points.

• BP4: Computational evidence support a benign effect (MetaRNN=0.068140596).
• BS2: High AC in GnomAdExome4 at 6 AD gene.
