Invitae | RCV001204102 | SCV001375293 | pathogenic | Leber congenital amaurosis 13 | 2019-06-22 | criteria provided, single submitter | clinical testing | For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. Algorithms developed to predict the effect of missense changes on protein structure and function (SIFT, PolyPhen-2, Align-GVGD) all suggest that this variant is likely to be tolerated, but these predictions have not been confirmed by published functional studies and their clinical significance is uncertain. This variant has been observed to segregate with RDH12-related conditions in a family and has also been observed in several individuals affected with RDH12-related conditions (PMID: 30134391, 28471114). This variant is not present in population databases (ExAC no frequency). This sequence change replaces histidine with aspartic acid at codon 179 of the RDH12 protein (p.His179Asp). The histidine residue is moderately conserved and there is a moderate physicochemical difference between histidine and aspartic acid. |
