Variant summary
Our verdict is Likely pathogenic. The variant received 7 ACMG points: 7P and 0B. PM1PM5PP2PP3PP5
The NM_000394.4(CRYAA):c.161G>A(p.Arg54His) variant causes a missense change involving the alteration of a conserved nucleotide. In-silico tool predicts a pathogenic outcome for this variant. Variant has been reported in Lovd as Pathogenic (no stars). Another variant affecting the same amino acid position, but resulting in a different missense (i.e. R54P) has been classified as Likely pathogenic.

Genes affected
CRYAA (HGNC:2388): (crystallin alpha A) Mammalian lens crystallins are divided into alpha, beta, and gamma families. Alpha crystallins are composed of two gene products: alpha-A and alpha-B, for acidic and basic, respectively. Alpha crystallins can be induced by heat shock and are members of the small heat shock protein (HSP20) family. They act as molecular chaperones although they do not renature proteins and release them in the fashion of a true chaperone; instead they hold them in large soluble aggregates. Post-translational modifications decrease the ability to chaperone. These heterogeneous aggregates consist of 30-40 subunits; the alpha-A and alpha-B subunits have a 3:1 ratio, respectively. Two additional functions of alpha crystallins are an autokinase activity and participation in the intracellular architecture. The encoded protein has been identified as a moonlighting protein based on its ability to perform mechanistically distinct functions. Alpha-A and alpha-B gene products are differentially expressed; alpha-A is preferentially restricted to the lens and alpha-B is expressed widely in many tissues and organs. Defects in this gene cause autosomal dominant congenital cataract (ADCC). [provided by RefSeq, Jan 2014]

ACMG classification
Classification was made for transcript
Our verdict: Likely_pathogenic. The variant received 7 ACMG points.
PM1
In a chain Alpha-crystallin A(1-168) (size 167) in uniprot entity CRYAA_HUMAN there are 44 pathogenic changes around while only 1 benign (98%) in NM_000394.4
PM5
Other missense variant is known to change same aminoacid residue: Variant chr21-43169259-C-T is described in ClinVar as [Pathogenic]. Clinvar id is 68457.Status of the report is criteria_provided_multiple_submitters_no_conflicts, 2 stars.
PP2
Missense variant in the gene, where a lot of missense mutations are associated with disease in ClinVar. The gene has 11 curated pathogenic missense variants (we use a threshold of 10). The gene has 0 curated benign missense variants. Gene score misZ: 0.34778 (below the threshold of 3.09). GenCC associations: The gene is linked to early-onset lamellar cataract, early-onset anterior polar cataract, total early-onset cataract, cataract - microcornea syndrome, early-onset nuclear cataract, cataract 9 multiple types.
PP3
MetaRNN computational evidence supports a deleterious effect, 0.748
PP5
Variant 21-43169260-G-A is Pathogenic according to our data. Variant chr21-43169260-G-A is described in Lovd as [Pathogenic].
