Glaucoma VCEP
The c.1430T>G variant in MYOC is a missense variant predicted to cause substitution of Isoleucine by Serine at amino acid 477 (p.Ile477Ser). This variant was not found in any genetic ancestry group of gnomAD (v4.1.0), meeting the ≤ 0.0001 threshold set for PM2_Supporting in a genetic ancestry group of at least 10,000 alleles. The REVEL score = 0.646, which was within the 0.644-0.772 range for PP3, predicting a damaging effect on MYOC function. The Ile477Ser protein had increased instability compared to wild type myocilin protein in these studies (PMIDs: 20334347, 21612213, 23129764). The assays met the OddsPath threshold for PS3_Moderate (> 4.3), indicating that this variant did impact protein function. This protein has also been assessed in these other studies (PMIDs: 10545602, 11152659, 14688426, 16297911), however, the same level of evidence was not met. 20 segregations in 1 family, with juvenile or primary open angle glaucoma (JOAG or POAG), have been reported (PMIDs: 9328473), which fulfilled PP1_Moderate (≥5 meioses in ≥1 family, but not the ≥7 meioses in >1 family for the strong criterion). Only 1 proband with JOAG had been reported (PMID: 9328473), not meeting the ≥ 2 probands threshold required to meet PS4_Supporting. In summary, this variant met the criteria to receive a score of 6 and to be classified as likely pathogenic (likely pathogenic classification range 6 to 9, adapted from PMID: 32720330) for juvenile open angle glaucoma based on the ACMG/AMP criteria met, as specified by the ClinGen Glaucoma VCEP (v2.0.0, 5 Dec 2024): PS3_Moderate, PP1_Moderate, PP3, PM2_Supporting.
Met criteria codes
PP3
The REVEL score = 0.646, which was within the 0.644-0.772 range for PP3, predicting a damaging effect on MYOC function.
PM2_Supporting
This variant was not found in any genetic ancestry group of gnomAD (v4.1.0), meeting the ≤ 0.0001 threshold set for PM2_Supporting in a genetic ancestry group of at least 10,000 alleles.
PP1_Moderate
20 segregations in 1 family, with juvenile or primary open angle glaucoma (JOAG or POAG), have been reported (PMIDs: 9328473), which fulfilled PP1_Moderate (≥5 meioses in ≥1 family, but not the ≥7 meioses in >1 family for the strong criterion).
PS3_Moderate
The Ile477Ser protein had increased instability compared to wild type myocilin protein in these studies (PMIDs: 20334347, 21612213, 23129764). The assays met the OddsPath threshold for PS3_Moderate (> 4.3), indicating that this variant did impact protein function. This protein has also been assessed in these other studies (PMIDs: 10545602, 11152659, 14688426, 16297911), however, the same level of evidence was not met.

Not Met criteria codes
PS2
This variant has not been identified de novo.
PS1
An established LP or P variant causing this same amino acid change has not been identified.
PS4
Only 1 proband with JOAG had been reported (PMID: 9328473), not meeting the ≥ 2 probands threshold required to meet PS4_Supporting.
PM4
This criterion did not apply to this variant.
PM5
PM5_Supporting could not be applied to this novel missense variant as although it did meet PP3, the Grantham score was lower (= 142) than the score for the different missense change at the same amino acid residue determined to be likely pathogenic by the ClinGen Glaucoma VCEP (c.1430T>A, p.Ile477Asn, Grantham score = 149, ClinVar ID: 30205).
BA1
This criterion was not met as PM2_Supporting has been met.
BS3
This criterion was not met as PS3_Supporting has been met.
BS1
This criterion was not met as PM2_Supporting has been met.
BP7
This criterion did not apply to this variant.
BP4
This criterion was not met as PP3 has been met.
