Ocular Genomics Institute, Massachusetts Eye and Ear RCV001376204 SCV001573261 pathogenic Retinitis pigmentosa 38 2021-04-08 criteria provided, single submitter research The MERTK c.1090G>T variant was identified in an individual with retinitis pigmentosa with a presumed recessive inheritance pattern. Through a review of available evidence we were able to apply the following criteria: PVS1, PM2, PM3. Based on this evidence we have classified this variant as Pathogenic.
Labcorp Genetics (formerly Invitae), Labcorp RCV002550230 SCV003226773 pathogenic not provided 2022-08-05 criteria provided, single submitter clinical testing For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. Algorithms developed to predict the effect of sequence changes on RNA splicing suggest that this variant may disrupt the consensus splice site. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 1065647). This variant has not been reported in the literature in individuals affected with MERTK-related conditions. This variant is not present in population databases (gnomAD no frequency). This sequence change creates a premature translational stop signal (p.Glu364*) in the MERTK gene. It is expected to result in an absent or disrupted protein product. Loss-of-function variants in MERTK are known to be pathogenic (PMID: 24265693, 29659094).
