Variant summary

Our verdict is Benign. The variant received -7 ACMG points: 1P and 8B. BA1PS3_Supporting

This summary comes from the ClinGen Evidence Repository: NM_001034853.2(RPGR):c.865A>G (p.Ile289Val) is a missense variant predicted to cause substitution of isoleucine by valine at amino acid 289. This variant is present in gnomAD v.4.1.0 at a frequency of 0.0001308 among hemizygous individuals, with 51 variant alleles / 389,832 total hemizygous alleles, which is higher than the ClinGen X-linked IRD VCEP BA1 threshold of >0.00005 (BA1). The variant co-segregates with X-linked retinitis pigmentosa or milder phenotypes in female carriers across 5 meioses in a single family, however, the description of phenotypes is insufficiently detailed to meet PP4 or PP1 (PMID:10482958). This variant has been reported in at least 2 apparently unrelated probands meeting one of the PS4 requirements of a male with some functional vision impairment by age 30 and/or decreased or absent ERG responses, or a female with functional visual abnormality and documentation of a male relative affected with retinitis pigmentosa (PMIDs: 32531858, 28863407). However, because the variant meets BA1, PS4_Supporting cannot be met. The variant protein exhibits decreased interaction with RPGRIP1 in a yeast-2-hybrid assay (PMID:23213406, PS3_Supporting). The computational predictor REVEL gives the variant a score of 0.553, which is above the ClinGen X-linked IRD VCEP BP4 threshold of <0.290 and below the PP3 threshold of >0.644, so BP4 and PP3 are not met. The computational splicing predictor SpliceAI gives the variant a delta score of 0.01 for acceptor gain, which is below the ClinGen X-linked IRD VCEP BP4 threshold of <0.2 and indicates that the variant has no predicted impact on splicing. In summary, this variant meets the criteria to be 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 and PS3_Supporting.

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.

Variant summary: RPGR c.865A>G (p.Ile289Val) results in a conservative amino acid change in the encoded protein sequence. Five of five in-silico tools predict a benign effect of the variant on protein function. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 0.00014 in 181885 control chromosomes. This frequency is not significantly higher than expected for a pathogenic variant in RPGR causing Retinitis Pigmentosa, X-Linked (0.00014 vs 0.005), however 8 hemizygotes are present in the gnomad population database, suggesting the variant may benign. c.865A>G has been reported in the literature in individuals affected with Retinitis Pigmentosa, X-Linked including in a family with 2 affected males and 3 female carriers, where only the RPGR gene was tested (Miano_1999, Churchill_2013, Weisschuh_2020). These reports do not provide unequivocal conclusions about association of the variant with Retinitis Pigmentosa, X-Linked. To our knowledge, no experimental evidence demonstrating an impact on protein function has been reported. Two clinical diagnostic laboratories have submitted clinical-significance assessments for this variant to ClinVar after 2014 without evidence for independent evaluation. All laboratories classified the variant as benign/likely benign. Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as uncertain significance.

NM_001034853.2(RPGR):c.865A>G (p.Ile289Val) is a missense variant predicted to cause substitution of isoleucine by valine at amino acid 289. This variant is present in gnomAD v.4.1.0 at a frequency of 0.0001308 among hemizygous individuals, with 51 variant alleles / 389,832 total hemizygous alleles, which is higher than the ClinGen X-linked IRD VCEP BA1 threshold of >0.00005 (BA1). The variant co-segregates with X-linked retinitis pigmentosa or milder phenotypes in female carriers across 5 meioses in a single family, however, the description of phenotypes is insufficiently detailed to meet PP4 or PP1 (PMID: 10482958). This variant has been reported in at least 2 apparently unrelated probands meeting one of the PS4 requirements of a male with some functional vision impairment by age 30 and/or decreased or absent ERG responses, or a female with functional visual abnormality and documentation of a male relative affected with retinitis pigmentosa (PMIDs: 32531858, 28863407). However, because the variant meets BA1, PS4_Supporting cannot be met. The variant protein exhibits decreased interaction with RPGRIP1 in a yeast-2-hybrid assay (PMID: 23213406, PS3_Supporting). The computational predictor REVEL gives the variant a score of 0.553, which is above the ClinGen X-linked IRD VCEP BP4 threshold of <0.290 and below the PP3 threshold of >0.644, so BP4 and PP3 are not met. The computational splicing predictor SpliceAI gives the variant a delta score of 0.01 for acceptor gain, which is below the ClinGen X-linked IRD VCEP BP4 threshold of <0.2 and indicates that the variant has no predicted impact on splicing. In summary, this variant meets the criteria to be 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 and PS3_Supporting.
