RCV002847075 | SCV003224429 | pathogenic | Leber congenital amaurosis 2; Retinitis pigmentosa 20 | 2022-07-24 | criteria provided, single submitter | clinical testing | For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. This variant disrupts a region of the RPE65 protein in which other variant(s) (p.Tyr501Profs*10) have been determined to be pathogenic (PMID: 17964524; Invitae). This suggests that this is a clinically significant region of the protein, and that variants that disrupt it are likely to be disease-causing. This variant has not been reported in the literature in individuals affected with RPE65-related conditions. This variant is not present in population databases (gnomAD no frequency). This sequence change creates a premature translational stop signal (p.Leu487*) in the RPE65 gene. While this is not anticipated to result in nonsense mediated decay, it is expected to disrupt the last 47 amino acid(s) of the RPE65 protein. |
