Variant summary
Our verdict is Likely pathogenic. The variant received 8 ACMG points: 8P and 0B. PP5_Very_Strong
The NM_024741.3(ZNF408):c.1621C>T(p.Arg541Cys) variant causes a missense change involving the alteration of a non-conserved nucleotide. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 0.0000151 in 1,459,592 control chromosomes in the GnomAD database, with no homozygous occurrence. Variant has been reported in ClinVar as Likely pathogenic (★★). Another variant affecting the same amino acid position, but resulting in a different missense (i.e. R541H) has been classified as Uncertain significance.

This sequence change replaces arginine, which is basic and polar, with cysteine, which is neutral and slightly polar, at codon 541 of the ZNF408 protein (p.Arg541Cys). This variant is present in population databases (rs781192528, gnomAD 0.009%). This missense change has been observed in individuals with retinitis pigmentosa (PMID: 25882705; internal data). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 204317). An algorithm developed to predict the effect of missense changes on protein structure and function (PolyPhen-2) suggests that this variant is likely to be disruptive. Experimental studies have shown that this missense change affects ZNF408 function (PMID: 25882705). For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. -
