Genes affected
PCARE (HGNC:34383): (photoreceptor cilium actin regulator) The protein encoded by this gene is highly expressed in photoreceptors and may associate with the primary cilium of the outer segment. The encoded protein appears to undergo post-translational lipid modification. Nonsense and missense variants of this gene appear to cause a recessive form of retinitis pigmentosa.

ACMG classification

Classification made for transcript

Verdict is Pathogenic. Variant got 18 ACMG points.

PVS1
Loss of function variant, product does not undergo nonsense mediated mRNA decay. Variant is located in the 3'-most 50 bp of the penultimate exon, not predicted to undergo nonsense mediated mRNA decay. There are 43 pathogenic variants in the truncated region.
PM2
Very rare variant in population databases, with high coverage;
PP5
Variant 2-29071493-GTCCAGGGCTGGCT-G is Pathogenic according to our data. Variant chr2-29071493-GTCCAGGGCTGGCT-G is described in ClinVar as [Pathogenic]. Clinvar id is 105.Status of the report is criteria_provided_multiple_submitters_no_conflicts, 2 stars. Variant chr2-29071493-GTCCAGGGCTGGCT-G is described in Lovd as [Pathogenic]. Variant chr2-29071493-GTCCAGGGCTGGCT-G is described in Lovd as [Pathogenic]. Variant chr2-29071493-GTCCAGGGCTGGCT-G is described in Lovd as [Likely_pathogenic].

Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingInvitaeAug 17, 2022This sequence change creates a premature translational stop signal (p.Lys919Thrfs*2) in the PCARE gene. It is expected to result in an absent or disrupted protein product. Loss-of-function variants in PCARE are known to be pathogenic (PMID: 20398886, 24339724, 26496393). For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 105). This premature translational stop signal has been observed in individual(s) with PCARE-related conditions (PMID: 20398884, 28763557). This variant is not present in population databases (gnomAD no frequency). -
