Variant summary
Our verdict is Pathogenic. The variant received 16 ACMG points: 16P and 0B. PVS1PP5_Very_Strong
The NM_006204.4(PDE6C):c.712C>T(p.Arg238*) variant causes a stop gained change involving the alteration of a non-conserved nucleotide. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 0.00000479 in 1,460,988 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 Likely pathogenic (★★). Variant results in nonsense mediated mRNA decay.

This sequence change creates a premature translational stop signal (p.Arg238*) in the PDE6C gene. It is expected to result in an absent or disrupted protein product. Loss-of-function variants in PDE6C are known to be pathogenic (PMID: 19887631, 23776498, 26103963, 30080950). This variant is present in population databases (rs762426409, gnomAD 0.006%). This premature translational stop signal has been observed in individual(s) with achromatopsia and/or retinal dystrophy (PMID: 27124789). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 191009). For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. -
Cone dystrophy 4    Pathogenic:1 
The variant is observed at an extremely low frequency in the gnomAD v2.1.1 dataset (total allele frequency: <0.001%). 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 to be associated with PDE6C related disorder (ClinVar ID: VCV000191009 / PMID: 27124789). Therefore, this variant is classified as pathogenic according to the recommendation of ACMG/AMP guideline. -
