Genes affected
EYS (HGNC:21555): (eyes shut homolog) The product of this gene contains multiple epidermal growth factor (EGF)-like and LamG domains. The protein is expressed in the photoreceptor layer of the retina, and the gene is mutated in autosomal recessive retinitis pigmentosa. Multiple transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been found for this gene. [provided by RefSeq, Dec 2008]

Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submittercurationBroad Center for Mendelian Genomics, Broad Institute of MIT and HarvardApr 01, 2021The p.Ile2239SerfsTer17 variant in EYS was identified in an individual with Retinitis pigmentosa, via a collaborative study between the Broad Institute's Center for Mendelian Genomics and the Pierce lab (https://oculargenomics.meei.harvard.edu/labs/pierce-lab/lab-members/). Through a review of available evidence we were able to apply the following criteria: PVS1, PM2, PP5. Based on this evidence we have classified this variant as Pathogenic.

Likely pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingIllumina Laboratory Services, IlluminaAug 28, 2016The EYS c.6714delT (p.Ile2239SerfsTer17) variant results in a frameshift and is predicted to result in premature termination of the protein. The p.Ile2239SerfsTer17 variant has been reported in a total of four individuals with autosomal recessive retinitis pigmentosa, including two homozygotes and two compound heterozygotes (Collin et al. 2008; Barragan et al. 2010; Katagiri et al. 2014; Ge et al. 2015). The variant was absent from the 1051 controls and is not found in the 1000 Genomes Project, the Exome Sequencing Project, or the Exome Aggregation Consortium. The Ile2239 residue is highly conserved. Based on the evidence from the literature and due to the potential impact of frameshift variants, the p.Ile2239SerfsTer17 variant is classified as likely pathogenic for the autosomal recessive form of retinitis pigmentosa. This variant was observed by ICSL as part of a predisposition screen in an ostensibly healthy population. -
Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingWomen's Health and Genetics/Laboratory Corporation of America, LabCorpDec 13, 2022Variant summary: EYS c.6714delT (p.Ile2239SerfsX17) results in a premature termination codon, predicted to cause a truncation of the encoded protein or absence of the protein due to nonsense mediated decay, which are commonly known mechanisms for disease. At least one truncation downstream of this position has been classified as pathogenic by our laboratory. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 3.8e-05 in 157482 control chromosomes (gnomAD). c.6714delT has been reported in the literature as a biallelic genotype in multiple individuals affected with Retinitis Pigmentosa and has been shown to segregate with the disease phenotype in at least one family (e.g. Collin_2008, Barragan_2010, Weisschuh_2020). These data indicate that the variant is very likely to be associated with disease. To our knowledge, no experimental evidence demonstrating an impact on protein function has been reported. Fourteen submitters have provided clinical-significance assessments for this variant to ClinVar after 2014 and all classified the variant as either pathogenic (n= 13) or likely pathogenic (n=1). Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as pathogenic. -

not provided Pathogenic:3
Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingInvitaeJan 08, 2024This sequence change creates a premature translational stop signal (p.Ile2239Serfs*17) in the EYS gene. It is expected to result in an absent or disrupted protein product. Loss-of-function variants in EYS are known to be pathogenic (PMID: 18836446, 20333770). This variant is present in population databases (rs752953889, gnomAD 0.01%). This premature translational stop signal has been observed in individual(s) with retinitis pigmentosa (PMID: 18976725, 21069908, 26667666, 29550188). This variant is also known as p.Pro2238ProfsX16. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 357699). For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. -
