Genes affected
RPGR (HGNC:10295): (retinitis pigmentosa GTPase regulator) This gene encodes a protein with a series of six RCC1-like domains (RLDs), characteristic of the highly conserved guanine nucleotide exchange factors. The encoded protein is found in the Golgi body and interacts with RPGRIP1. This protein localizes to the outer segment of rod photoreceptors and is essential for their viability. Mutations in this gene have been associated with X-linked retinitis pigmentosa (XLRP). Multiple alternatively spliced transcript variants that encode different isoforms of this gene have been reported, but the full-length natures of only some have been determined.

Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingInvitaeSep 30, 2023This sequence change creates a premature translational stop signal (p.Glu1060Argfs*18) in the RPGR (ORF15) gene. While this is not anticipated to result in nonsense mediated decay, it is expected to disrupt the last 93 amino acid(s) of the RPGR (ORF15) protein. This variant is present in population databases (rs771214648, gnomAD 0.001%). This premature translational stop signal has been observed in individuals with retinitis pigmentosa (PMID: 16936086, 25097241). This variant is also known as ORF15+1422_1423delAG. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 216990). This variant disrupts a region of the RPGR (ORF15) protein in which other variant(s) (p.Leu1130Lysfs*13) have been determined to be pathogenic (PMID: 22264887; Invitae). This suggests that this is a clinically significant region of the protein, and that variants that disrupt it are likely to be disease-causing. For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. -
