RCV001975177 | SCV002240193 | pathogenic | Primary open angle glaucoma; Amyotrophic lateral sclerosis type 12; Glaucoma 1, open angle, E | 2023-12-26 | criteria provided, single submitter | clinical testing | This variant is a gross deletion of the genomic region encompassing exon(s) 5 of the OPTN gene. This deletion is out-of-frame, and is expected to create a premature termination codon and result in an absent or disrupted protein product. Loss-of-function variants in OPTN are known to be pathogenic (PMID: 20428114). A similar copy number variant has been observed in individual(s) with amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (PMID: 20428114). It has also been observed to segregate with disease in related individuals. For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. |
