Genes affected
GNAT2 (HGNC:4394): (G protein subunit alpha transducin 2) Transducin is a 3-subunit guanine nucleotide-binding protein (G protein) which stimulates the coupling of rhodopsin and cGMP-phoshodiesterase during visual impulses. The transducin alpha subunits in rods and cones are encoded by separate genes. This gene encodes the alpha subunit in cones. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]

Review Status:criteria provided, single submitter
Collection Method:clinical testing

This premature translational stop signal has been observed in individual(s) with GNAT2-related conditions (PMID: 31058429, 31144483). For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 522772). This variant is present in population databases (rs745308973, gnomAD 0.008%). This sequence change creates a premature translational stop signal (p.Arg161*) in the GNAT2 gene. It is expected to result in an absent or disrupted protein product. Loss-of-function variants in GNAT2 are known to be pathogenic (PMID: 12077706). -
