RCV001004993 | SCV001164551 | likely pathogenic | Leber congenital amaurosis 8 | 2018-12-03 | criteria provided, single submitter | research | The heterozygous p.Gly850ValfsTer5 variant in CRB1 was identified by our study in the compound heterozygous state, confirmed in trans with a likely pathogenic variant, in two siblings with Leber congenital amaurosis. The p.Gly850ValfsTer5 variant in CRB1 has not been previously reported in individuals with Leber Congenital Amaurosis and was absent from large population studies. This variant is predicted to cause a frameshift, which alters the protein's amino acid sequence beginning at position 850 and leads to a premature termination codon 5 amino acids downstream. This alteration is then predicted to lead to a truncated or absent protein. Loss of function of the CRB1 gene is an established disease mechanism for Leber Congenital Amaurosis. In summary, although additional studies are required to fully establish its clinical significance, this variant is likely pathogenic. Criteria applied: PM2, PVS1 (Richards 2015). |
