Genes affected
GPR179 (HGNC:31371): (G protein-coupled receptor 179) This gene encodes a member of the glutamate receptor subfamily of G protein-coupled receptors. The encoded protein has an EGF-like calcium binding domain and a seven transmembrane domain in the N-terminal region of the protein. Mutations in this gene are associated with congenital stationary night blindness type 1E. [provided by RefSeq, Apr 2012]

Submissions by phenotype

not provided Pathogenic:1
Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingInvitaeDec 05, 2023This sequence change creates a premature translational stop signal (p.Pro93Glnfs*57) in the GPR179 gene. It is expected to result in an absent or disrupted protein product. Loss-of-function variants in GPR179 are known to be pathogenic (PMID: 22325361, 22325362). This variant is not present in population databases (gnomAD no frequency). This premature translational stop signal has been observed in individual(s) with congenital stationary night blindness (PMID: 22325361). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 31201). For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. -
