Variant summary

Our verdict is Benign. Variant got -9 ACMG points: 0P and 9B. BS3_SupportingBA1

This summary comes from the ClinGen Evidence Repository: NM_000329.3(RPE65):c.394G>A is a missense variant that replaces alanine with threonine at codon 132. This variant is present in gnomAD v.2.1.1 at a GrpMax allele frequency of 0.01113, with 372 alleles / 30614 total alleles in the South Asian population (with 6 homozygotes), which is higher than the ClinGen LCA / eoRD VCEP BA1 threshold of >0.008 (BA1). The computational predictor REVEL gives a score of 0.548, which is above the ClinGen LCA / eoRD VCEP threshold of <0.3 and does not strongly predict a non-damaging effect on RPE65 function. The splicing impact predictor SpliceAI gives a score of 0.03 for splice acceptor loss, which is below the ClinGen LCA / eoRD VCEP recommended threshold of ≥0.2 and does not strongly predict an impact on splicing. The variant exhibited 50% enzymatic activity in an isomerohydrolase assay relative to the wild-type control, which is higher than the ClinGen LCA / eoRD BS3_Supporting threshold of >50% activity, indicating that it largely preserves] normal protein function (PMID:16150724, BS3_Supporting). In summary, this variant meets the criteria to be classified as benign for RPE65-related recessive retinopathy based on the ACMG/AMP criteria applied, as specified by the ClinGen LCA/eoRD VCEP: BA1, BS3_Supporting. (VCEP specifications version 1.0.0; date of approval 09/21/2023). LINK:https://erepo.genome.network/evrepo/ui/classification/CA226547/MONDO:0100368/120

Genes affected

RPE65 (HGNC:10294): (retinoid isomerohydrolase RPE65) The protein encoded by this gene is a component of the vitamin A visual cycle of the retina which supplies the 11-cis retinal chromophore of the photoreceptors opsin visual pigments. It is a member of the carotenoid cleavage oxygenase superfamily. All members of this superfamily are non-heme iron oxygenases with a seven-bladed propeller fold and oxidatively cleave carotenoid carbon:carbon double bonds. However, the protein encoded by this gene has acquired a divergent function that involves the concerted O-alkyl ester cleavage of its all-trans retinyl ester substrate and all-trans to 11-cis double bond isomerization of the retinyl moiety. As such, it performs the essential enzymatic isomerization step in the synthesis of 11-cis retinal. Mutations in this gene are associated with early-onset severe blinding disorders such as Leber congenital. [provided by RefSeq, Oct 2017]

Likely benign, criteria provided, single submitter	research	Broad Center for Mendelian Genomics, Broad Institute of MIT and Harvard	-	The p.Ala132Thr variant in RPE65 has been identified in 2 homozygous siblings from 1 family with retinitis pigmentosa (PMID: 9501220), and in the heterozygous state in 2 unrelated individuals with retinitis pigmentosa from India and Dubai respectively (PMID: 24066033, 24265693). In vitro functional studies provide some evidence that the p.Ala132Thr variant may slightly impact protein function (PMID: 16150724). However, these types of assays may not accurately represent biological function and this variant has been identified in >1% of South Asian chromosomes and 4 homozygotes by ExAC (http://gnomad.broadinstitute.org/). In summary, although additional studies are required to fully establish its clinical significance, this variant meets criteria to be classified as likely benign for autosomal recessive retinitis pigmentosa. -

The splicing impact predictor SpliceAI gives a score of 0.03 for splice acceptor loss, which is below the ClinGen LCA / eoRD VCEP recommended threshold of greater than or equal to 0.2 and does not strongly predict an impact on splicing.
