The NM_000329.3(RPE65):c.825C>A (p.Tyr275Ter) variant is a nonsense variant that introduces a premature stop codon into exon 8 of 14, and is predicted to lead to nonsense-mediated decay in a gene in which loss-of-function is an established mechanism of disease (PVS1). This variant is absent from gnomAD v2.1.1 (PM2_Supporting). At least one proband harboring this variant exhibits a phenotype including congenital night blindness (0.5 pts), extinguished rod ERG responses (0.5 pts), previous exome sequencing that did not provide an alternative explanation for visual impairment (2 pts), symptomatic onset between birth and age five years (1 pt), retinal degeneration with attenuated vessels (0.5 pts), and extinguished cone ERG responses (1 pt), which together are specific for RPE65-related recessive retinopathy (5.5 points, PMID: 31273949, PP4). In summary, this variant meets the criteria to be classified as pathogenic for RPE65-related recessive retinopathy based on the ACMG/AMP criteria applied, as specified by the ClinGen LCA / eoRD VCEP: PVS1, PM2_Supporting, PP4. (VCEP specifications version 1.0.0; date of approval 09/21/2023).
