RCV001041242 | SCV001204845 | likely pathogenic | not provided | 2024-05-04 | criteria provided, single submitter | clinical testing | This sequence change replaces glycine, which is neutral and non-polar, with arginine, which is basic and polar, at codon 314 of the CHM protein (p.Gly314Arg). This variant also falls at the last nucleotide of exon 7, which is part of the consensus splice site for this exon. This variant is not present in population databases (gnomAD no frequency). This missense change has been observed in individuals with clinical features of choroideremia (PMID: 31181178; Invitae). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 839475). An algorithm developed to predict the effect of missense changes on protein structure and function (PolyPhen-2) suggests that this variant is likely to be tolerated. Variants that disrupt the consensus splice site are a relatively common cause of aberrant splicing (PMID: 17576681, 9536098). Algorithms developed to predict the effect of sequence changes on RNA splicing suggest that this variant may disrupt the consensus splice site. In summary, the currently available evidence indicates that the variant is pathogenic, but additional data are needed to prove that conclusively. Therefore, this variant has been classified as Likely Pathogenic. |
