Description
This sequence change replaces glycine, which is neutral and non-polar, with glutamic acid, which is acidic and polar, at codon 61 of the CYP1B1 protein (p.Gly61Glu). This variant is present in population databases (rs28936700, gnomAD 0.04%), including at least one homozygous and/or hemizygous individual. This missense change has been observed in individuals with primary congenital glaucoma (PMID: 9463332, 12372064, 19234632). It is commonly reported in individuals of Saudi and Moroccan ancestry (PMID: 9463332, 12372064, 19234632). This variant is also known as c.3987G>A. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 7730). Advanced modeling of protein sequence and biophysical properties (such as structural, functional, and spatial information, amino acid conservation, physicochemical variation, residue mobility, and thermodynamic stability) performed at Invitae indicates that this missense variant is expected to disrupt CYP1B1 protein function with a positive predictive value of 80%. Experimental studies have shown that this missense change affects CYP1B1 function (PMID: 18470941, 19793111, 27243976). For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic.
