Illumina Laboratory Services, Illumina RCV000779108 SCV000915601 pathogenic Pigmentary retinal dystrophy 2018-10-11 criteria provided, single submitter clinical testing The RDH5 c.839G>A (p.Arg280His) missense variant has been reported in at least five studies in which is found in a compound heterozygous state in a total of eight individuals with fundus albipunctatus (FA) (including one set of monozygotic twins and a pair of siblings) and in a heterozygous state in three unaffected family members (Gonzalez-Fernandez et al. 1999; Nakamura et al. 2000; Kuroiwa et al. 2000; Sato et al. 2004; Nakamura et al. 2004). The p.Arg280His variant was absent from 310 control alleles but is reported at a frequency of 0.000349 in the Latino population of the Genome Aggregation Database. The p.Arg280His variant is located in the catalytic domain of the protein. Functional studies in COS-1 cells showed that the variant resulted in 2% protein expression and less than 1% enzyme activity compared to wild type (Lidén et al. 2001). Co-expression studies showed the reduction of enzyme activity was dose-dependent. The variant is suggested to have a dominant-negative effect (Lidén et al. 2001). Based on the collective evidence, the p.Arg280His variant is classified as pathogenic for fundus albipunctatus. This variant was observed by ICSL as part of a predisposition screen in an ostensibly healthy population.
Labcorp Genetics (formerly Invitae), Labcorp RCV000592822 SCV001378792 pathogenic not provided 2024-09-10 criteria provided, single submitter clinical testing This sequence change replaces arginine, which is basic and polar, with histidine, which is basic and polar, at codon 280 of the RDH5 protein (p.Arg280His). This variant is present in population databases (rs62638193, gnomAD 0.03%). This missense change has been observed in individual(s) with fundus albipunctatus (PMID: 10617778, 11053295, 15007239). In at least one individual the data is consistent with being in trans (on the opposite chromosome) from a pathogenic variant. It has also been observed to segregate with disease in related individuals. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 8005). Invitae Evidence Modeling of protein sequence and biophysical properties (such as structural, functional, and spatial information, amino acid conservation, physicochemical variation, residue mobility, and thermodynamic stability) indicates that this missense variant is expected to disrupt RDH5 protein function with a positive predictive value of 80%. Experimental studies have shown that this missense change affects RDH5 function (PMID: 11675386). For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic.
