Illumina Laboratory Services, Illumina RCV001164470 SCV001326602 uncertain significance Retinitis pigmentosa 2018-01-13 criteria provided, single submitter clinical testing This variant was observed in the ICSL laboratory as part of a predisposition screen in an ostensibly healthy population. It had not been previously curated by ICSL or reported in the Human Gene Mutation Database (HGMD: prior to June 1st, 2018), and was therefore a candidate for classification through an automated scoring system. Utilizing variant allele frequency, disease prevalence and penetrance estimates, and inheritance mode, an automated score was calculated to assess if this variant is too frequent to cause the disease. Based on the score, this variant could not be ruled out of causing disease and therefore its association with disease required further investigation. A literature search was performed for the gene, cDNA change, and amino acid change (if applicable). No publications were found based on this search. This variant was therefore classified as a variant of unknown significance for this disease.

Three of five in-silico tools predict a benign effect of the variant on protein function. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 0.00023 in 187570 control chromosomes, predominantly at a frequency of 0.0035 within the East Asian subpopulation in the gnomAD database. The observed variant frequency within East Asian control individuals in the gnomAD database is approximately 1.02 fold of the estimated maximal expected allele frequency for a pathogenic variant in EYS causing Retinitis Pigmentosa phenotype (0.0035 vs 0.0034), strongly suggesting that the variant is a benign polymorphism found primarily in populations of East Asian origin. c.8860T>C has been reported in the literature in individuals affected with Retinitis Pigmentosa (Ge_2015, Numa_2020). These reports do not provide unequivocal conclusions about association of the variant with Retinitis Pigmentosa. To our knowledge, no experimental evidence demonstrating an impact on protein function has been reported. Three ClinVar submitters (evaluation after 2014) cite the variant as uncertain significance (n=2) and likely benign (n=1). Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as likely benign.
