Variant summary
Our verdict is Benign. The variant received -7 ACMG points: 2P and 9B. PM4BP6BS1BS2
The NM_130837.3(OPA1):c.113_130delGAAGCATTTATCATTCAC(p.Arg38_Ser43del) variant causes a disruptive inframe deletion change. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 0.00222 in 1,613,980 control chromosomes in the GnomAD database, including 10 homozygotes. It is difficult to determine the true allele frequency of this variant because it is of type DEL_BIG, and the frequency of such variant types in population databases may be underestimated and unreliable. Variant has been reported in ClinVar as Conflicting classifications of pathogenicity (no stars).

Variant summary: OPA1 c.113_130del18 (p.Arg38_Ser43del) results in an in-frame deletion that is predicted to remove 6 amino acids from the encoded protein. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 0.0022 in 1613980 control chromosomes in the gnomAD database, including 10 homozygotes. The available data on variant occurrences in the general population are insufficient to allow any conclusion about variant significance, although are not suggestive of a variant associated with highly penetrant autosomal dominant or recessive disease. c.113_130del18 has been reported in the literature in individuals affected with OPA1-Related Disorders (e.g., Thiselton_2002, Milone_2009, Barboni_2013, vandeWarrenburg_2016, Tingaud-Sequeira_2017, Heighton_2019, Marcos_2020, Rots_2023), although the variant was also found in healthy homozygous and heterozygous controls (e.g., vandeWarrenburg_2016) and found not to segregate with disease in several families (e.g., Tingaud-Sequeira_2017, Marcos_2020). To our knowledge, no experimental evidence demonstrating an impact on protein function has been reported. The following publications have been ascertained in the context of this evaluation (PMID: 12036970, 19303950, 23388408, 27165006, 27890673, 31521625, 32420686, 37196654). Nine submitters have reported clinical-significance assessments for this variant to ClinVar after 2014. Multiple submitters reported the variant with conflicting assessments (benign/likely benign, n = 3; VUS, n = 6). Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as likely benign. -

Abortive cerebellar ataxia    Uncertain:1 
This variant was classified as: Uncertain significance. The following ACMG criteria were applied in classifying this variant: PM4. -
Optic atrophy with or without deafness, ophthalmoplegia, myopathy, ataxia, and neuropathy    Uncertain:1 
This variant has been identified at an allele frequency of 0.22% in both ExAC overall and in European Americans in ESP; three homozygous individuals have been identified in these databases combined. However, this condition exhibits marked variable expressivity and incomplete penetrance, and compound heterozygous individuals have been reported with milder pathogenic variants. A previously reported patient (Milone, 2009) had a similar presentation to the patient observed in our clinic, but family segregation studies were not done in that case. The patient tested in our clinic presented with fatigue, ataxia, muscle weakness, peripheral neuropathy, ptosis, and external ophthalmoplegia. She did not have optic atrophy at age 51. Her mother had a similar clinical presentation and was deceased. The patient is also an FMR1 premutation carrier. This OPA1 variant was inherited from her father, who at age 74, had no clinical symptoms of neurological or mitochondrial dysfunction, although he had a history of migraines. -
