Evidence submitted by expert panel
Glaucoma VCEP
The c.440G>A variant in MYOC is a missense variant predicted to cause substitution of Arginine by Glutamine at amino acid 147 (p.Arg147Gln). The highest minor allele frequency of this variant was in the Ashkenazi Jewish population of gnomAD (v2.1.1) = 0.009836, which met the ≥ 0.001 threshold set for BS1 (102 alleles out of 10,370, meeting the threshold of ≥ 5 of at least 2,000 observed alleles). The REVEL score = 0.082, which met the ≤ 0.15 threshold for BP4, suggesting that the variant does not impact MYOC function. There was no functional evidence predicting a damaging or benign impact of this variant on MYOC function. Only 1 proband with primary open angle glaucoma had been reported (pers. comm. F Pasutto), not meeting the ≥ 2 probands threshold required to meet PS4_Supporting. In summary, this variant met the criteria to receive a score of -5 and to be classified as likely benign (likely benign classification range -2 to -6) for primary open angle glaucoma based on the ACMG/AMP criteria met, as specified by the ClinGen Glaucoma VCEP (v1, 12 Oct 2021): BS1, BP4.
Met criteria codes
BP4
The REVEL score = 0.082, which met the ≤ 0.15 threshold for BP4, suggesting that the variant does not impact MYOC function.
BS1
The highest minor allele frequency of this variant was in the Ashkenazi Jewish population of gnomAD (v2.1.1) = 0.009836, which met the ≥ 0.001 threshold set for BS1 (102 alleles out of 10,370, meeting the threshold of ≥ 5 of at least 2,000 observed alleles).
Not Met criteria codes
PM5
No other missense variants at this amino acid residue have been identified.
PM4
This variant does not cause a protein length change.
PS2
This variant has not been identified de novo.
PS1
An established pathogenic variant causing this same amino acid change has not been identified.
PS3
No functional evidence has been found for this variant.
PS4
Only 1 proband with POAG had been reported (pers. comm. F Pasutto), not meeting the ≥ 2 probands threshold required to meet PS4_Supporting.
PM6
This variant has not been identified de novo.
PM2
This criterion was not met as BS1 has been met.
BA1
This criterion was not met as BS1 has been met.
BP7
This is not a synonymous or non-coding variant.
BS3
No functional evidence has been found for this variant.
PP1
No segregations have been reported for this variant.
PP3
This criterion was not met as BP4 has been met.
