X-linked Inherited Retinal Disease VCEP
NM_001034853.2(RPGR):c.154G>A (p.Gly52Arg) is an apparent missense variant encoding the substitution of glycine with arginine at amino acid 52, and is located in the final nucleotide of exon 2. The splicing impact predictor SpliceAI gives a score of 0.66 for splice donor loss, which is above the ClinGen X-linked IRD VCEP recommended threshold of ≥0.2 and predicts a damaging impact on splicing (PP3). This variant is absent from gnomAD v4.1.0 (PM2_Supporting). At least one proband harboring this variant exhibits a phenotype including diagnosis of retinitis pigmentosa with electroretinogram responses characteristic of rod-cone dystrophy (1 pt), genotyping by exome sequencing identifying no alternative basis for inherited retinal disease (2 pts), visual field changes (0.5 pts), and fundus abnormalities (0.5 pts), which together are specific for RPGR-related retinopathy (4 points, PMID: 33372982, PP4). The variant has been reported to segregate with retinal dystrophy through at least 4 affected meioses from 2 families (PP1_Strong; PMID: 22888088, DOI 10.1055/s-0044-1779398). This variant has been reported in at least 6 apparently unrelated probands meeting one of the PS4 requirements of some functional vision impairment in affected males by age 30 years, and/or decreased or absent electroretinogram responses (PMID: 16969763, PMID: 22888088, PMID: 35432464, PMID: 36445968, PMID: 28559085, DOI 10.1055/s-0044-1779398, PS4_Strong). Other publications have reported probands carrying this variant but did not meet the requirements for inclusion in the PS4 code (PMID: 34985506, PMID: 31213501, PMID: 37798099, PMID: 33372982). In summary, this variant is classified as pathogenic for RPGR-related retinopathy based on the ClinGen X-linked Inherited Retinal Disease Expert Panel Specifications to the ACMG/AMP Variant Interpretation Guidelines for RPGR Version 1.0.0; PM2_Supporting, PP3, PP4, PP1_Strong, and PS4.
Met criteria codes
PP4
At least one proband harboring this variant exhibits a phenotype including diagnosis of retinitis pigmentosa with electroretinogram responses characteristic of rod-cone dystrophy (1 pt), genotyping by exome sequencing excluding an alternative basis for inherited retinal disease (2 pts), visual field changes (0.5 pts), and fundus abnormalities (0.5 pts), which together are specific for RPGR-related retinopathy (4 points, PMID: 33372982, PP4).
PP3
The splicing impact predictor SpliceAI gives a score of 0.66 (donor loss), which is above the ClinGen X-linked IRD VCEP recommended threshold of ≥0.2 and predicts a damaging impact on splicing (PP3).
PP1_Strong
The variant has been reported to segregate with retinal dystrophy through at least 4 affected meioses from 2 families. (PP1_Strong; PMID: 22888088, DOI 10.1055/s-0044-1779398).
PS4
This variant has been reported in at least 6 apparently unrelated probands meeting the PS4 requirement of some functional vision impairment in affected males by age 30, with decreased or absent cone and/or rod ERG responses (PMIDs: 16969763, 22888088, 35432464, 36445968, 28559085, DOI 10.1055/s-0044-1779398, PS4_Strong). Other publications reported proband carrying this variant but failed to meet the requirements of the PS4 code (PMIDs: 34985506, 31213501, 37798099, 33372982).
PM2_Supporting
This variant is absent from gnomAD v4.1.0 (PM2_Supporting).
