Variant summary

Our verdict is Benign. Variant got -20 ACMG points: 0P and 20B. BP4_StrongBP6_Very_StrongBS1BS2

The NM_020989.4(CRYGC):c.143G>A(p.Arg48His) variant causes a missense change involving the alteration of a non-conserved nucleotide. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 0.0169 in 1,614,176 control chromosomes in the GnomAD database, including 365 homozygotes. In-silico tool predicts a benign outcome for this variant. 13/19 in silico tools predict a benign outcome for this variant. Variant has been reported in ClinVar as Benign (★★). Another variant affecting the same amino acid position, but resulting in a different missense (i.e. R48C) has been classified as Uncertain significance.

Genes affected
CRYGC (HGNC:2410): (crystallin gamma C) This gene encodes a member of the beta/gamma-crystallin family of proteins. Crystallins constitute the major proteins of vertebrate eye lens and maintain the transparency and refractive index of the lens. This gene and several family members are present in a gene cluster on chromosome 2. Mutations in this gene have been shown to cause multiple types of cataract, including Coppock-like cataract and zonular pulverulent cataract, among others. [provided by RefSeq, Jan 2015]

not specified Benign:1
Benign, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingLaboratory for Molecular Medicine, Mass General Brigham Personalized MedicineMar 29, 2016Variant identified in a genome or exome case(s) and assessed due to predicted null impact of the variant or pathogenic assertions in the literature or databases. Disclaimer: This variant has not undergone full assessment. The following are preliminary notes: This variant has been reported in 4/4 individuals (1 family ) affected with AD pulvurent congenital cataract and was absent from 10 healthy relatives and 230 ethnically matched healthy controls (Gonzalez-Huerta_2013). It has also been reported in 4/30 cases og congenital cataract (Kumar_2011). The exact prevalence of congenital cataract is unknown but estimated around 1-6/10,000 children. The frequency of the variant in South Asians in 5.3%. -
Usher syndrome type 2C Benign:1
Benign, criteria provided, single submitterresearchBroad Center for Mendelian Genomics, Broad Institute of MIT and Harvard-The heterozygous p.Arg48His variant in CRYGC has been identified in 4 individuals with cataracts in the literature (PMID: 21423869). However, this variant is classified as benign for autosomal dominant cataracts because it has been identified in >5% of South Asian chromosomes by ExAC (http://gnomad.broadinstitute.org/). -
