Genes affected

CNGA1 (HGNC:2148): (cyclic nucleotide gated channel subunit alpha 1) The protein encoded by this gene is involved in phototransduction. Along with another protein, the encoded protein forms a cGMP-gated cation channel in the plasma membrane, allowing depolarization of rod photoreceptors. This represents the last step in the phototransduction pathway. Defects in this gene are a cause of retinitis pigmentosa autosomal recessive (ARRP) disease. Multiple transcript variants have been found for this gene. [provided by RefSeq, Oct 2019]

LOC101927157 (HGNC:):

NIPAL1 (HGNC:27194): (NIPA like domain containing 1) Predicted to enable magnesium ion transmembrane transporter activity. Predicted to be involved in magnesium ion transport. Predicted to be integral component of membrane. Predicted to be active in membrane. [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Apr 2022]

ACMG classification

Verdict is Likely_benign. Variant got -2 ACMG points.

• PM2: Very rare variant in population databases, with high coverage
• BP4: This place is a probable branch point but likely benign (scored 3 / 10). Computational evidence support a benign effect (BayesDel_noAF=-0.73).
