Variant summary
Our verdict is Pathogenic. The variant received 16 ACMG points: 16P and 0B. PVS1PP5_Very_Strong
The NM_000440.3(PDE6A):c.1957C>T(p.Arg653*) variant causes a stop gained change involving the alteration of a non-conserved nucleotide. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 0.000018 in 1,613,584 control chromosomes in the GnomAD database, with no homozygous occurrence. In-silico tool predicts a pathogenic outcome for this variant. Variant has been reported in ClinVar as Pathogenic (★★). Synonymous variant affecting the same amino acid position (i.e. R653R) has been classified as Likely benign. Variant results in nonsense mediated mRNA decay.

The R653X variant has been published as a homozygous pathogenic variant in a patient diagnosed with autosomal recessive retinitis pigmentosa (Perez-Carro et al., 2016). The R653X variant is not observed at a significant frequency in large population cohorts (Lek et al., 2016). The R653X nonsense variant in the PDE6A gene is predicted to cause loss of normal protein function either through protein truncation or nonsense-mediated mRNA decay. This variant is interpreted to be pathogenic. -

This sequence change creates a premature translational stop signal (p.Arg653*) in the PDE6A gene. It is expected to result in an absent or disrupted protein product. Loss-of-function variants in PDE6A are known to be pathogenic (PMID: 7493036, 22128245, 23847139). This variant is present in population databases (rs753942596, gnomAD 0.009%). This premature translational stop signal has been observed in individual(s) with retinitis pigmentosa (PMID: 26806561, 29693493, 30619975). In at least one individual the data is consistent with being in trans (on the opposite chromosome) from a pathogenic variant. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 437983). For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. -

Retinitis pigmentosa 43 Pathogenic:1
The variant is observed at an extremely low frequency in the gnomAD v2.1.1 dataset (total allele frequency: 0.003%). Predicted Consequence/Location: Stop-gained (nonsense): predicted to result in a loss or disruption of normal protein function through nonsense-mediated decay (NMD) or protein truncation. Multiple pathogenic variants are reported downstream of the variant. The variant has been reported at least twice as pathogenic with clinical assertions and evidence for the classification (ClinVar ID: VCV000437983 /PMID: 26806561 /3billion dataset). Therefore, this variant is classified as Pathogenic according to the recommendation of ACMG/AMP guideline. -
