Genes affected
GRM6 (HGNC:4598): (glutamate metabotropic receptor 6) L-glutamate is the major excitatory neurotransmitter in the central nervous system and activates both ionotropic and metabotropic glutamate receptors. Glutamatergic neurotransmission is involved in most aspects of normal brain function and can be perturbed in many neuropathologic conditions. The metabotropic glutamate receptors are a family of G protein-coupled receptors, that have been divided into 3 groups on the basis of sequence homology, putative signal transduction mechanisms, and pharmacologic properties. Group I includes GRM1 and GRM5 and these receptors have been shown to activate phospholipase C. Group II includes GRM2 and GRM3 while Group III includes GRM4, GRM6, GRM7 and GRM8. Group II and III receptors are linked to the inhibition of the cyclic AMP cascade but differ in their agonist selectivities. Mutations in this gene result in congenital stationary night blindness type 1B. [provided by RefSeq, May 2018]

Submissions by phenotype

not provided Pathogenic:1
Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingInvitaeNov 01, 2022For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 437970). This premature translational stop signal has been observed in individual(s) with congenital stationary night blindness (PMID: 28041643). This variant is present in population databases (rs781463257, gnomAD 0.02%). This sequence change creates a premature translational stop signal (p.Val193Trpfs*16) in the GRM6 gene. It is expected to result in an absent or disrupted protein product. Loss-of-function variants in GRM6 are known to be pathogenic (PMID: 15781871, 16622103, 22008250). -
