Genes affected
OPA1 (HGNC:8140): (OPA1 mitochondrial dynamin like GTPase) The protein encoded by this gene is a nuclear-encoded mitochondrial protein with similarity to dynamin-related GTPases. The encoded protein localizes to the inner mitochondrial membrane and helps regulate mitochondrial stability and energy output. This protein also sequesters cytochrome c. Mutations in this gene have been associated with optic atrophy type 1, which is a dominantly inherited optic neuropathy resulting in progressive loss of visual acuity, leading in many cases to legal blindness.

Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingInvitaeDec 04, 2023This sequence change creates a premature translational stop signal (p.Arg711*) in the OPA1 gene. It is expected to result in an absent or disrupted protein product. Loss-of-function variants in OPA1 are known to be pathogenic (PMID: 11440988, 20157015, 20952381, 25012220). This variant is not present in population databases (gnomAD no frequency). This premature translational stop signal has been observed in individual(s) with optic atrophy (PMID: 11810270). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 216979). For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. -
Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingARUP Laboratories, Molecular Genetics and Genomics, ARUP LaboratoriesMay 18, 2018The OPA1 c.2296C>T; p.Arg766Ter variant (rs863224906; ClinVar Variation ID: 216979) has been previously identified in an individual with a personal and family consistent with dominantly inherited optic atrophy (Delettre 2001). Located in exon 23 (of 31) is variant is expected to result in a truncated or absent protein product. Additionally, this variant is absent from general population databases (1000 Genomes Project, Exome Variant Server, and Genome Aggregation Database). As loss of function is an established disease mechanism in OPA1-mediated optic atrophy, based on the available information, this variant is considered pathogenic. Pathogenic variants in OPA1 are associated with autosomal dominant optic atrophy 1 (MIM: 165500) and autosomal recessive Behr syndrome (MIM: 210000). -
Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingAthena DiagnosticsMay 11, 2021This variant is expected to result in the loss of a functional protein. This variant has not been reported in large, multi-ethnic general populations (http://gnomad.broadinstitute.org). This variant has been identified in at least one individual with dominant optic atrophy (DOA). -

OPA1-Related Disorders Pathogenic:1
Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingWomen's Health and Genetics/Laboratory Corporation of America, LabCorpJan 09, 2024Variant summary: OPA1 c.2131C>T (p.Arg711X) results in a premature termination codon, predicted to cause a truncation of the encoded protein or absence of the protein due to nonsense mediated decay, which are commonly known mechanisms for disease. The variant was absent in 251228 control chromosomes (gnomAD). c.2131C>T has been reported in the literature in individuals affected with OPA1-Related Disorders (examples: Delettre_2001, Reis_2013, Li_2017). These data indicate that the variant is likely to be associated with disease. The following publications have been ascertained in the context of this evaluation (PMID: 11810270, 28081242, 22865259). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 216979). Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as pathogenic. -

OPA1-related condition Pathogenic:1
Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingPreventionGenetics, part of Exact SciencesJan 30, 2024The OPA1 c.2296C>T variant is predicted to result in premature protein termination (p.Arg766*). This variant, also reported as p.R711*, was previously reported in individuals with autosomal dominant optic atrophy (see, for example, Delettre et al. 2001. PubMed ID: 11810270; Weisschuh et al. 2021. PubMed ID: 34242285). This variant has not been reported in a large population database (http://gnomad.broadinstitute.org), indicating this variant is rare. Nonsense variants in OPA1 are expected to be pathogenic. This variant is interpreted as pathogenic. -
