Description
For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. This variant disrupts the p.Lys296 amino acid residue in RHO. Other variant(s) that disrupt this residue have been observed in individuals with RHO-related conditions (PMID: 1765377, 28559085), which suggests that this may be a clinically significant amino acid residue. Experimental studies are conflicting or provide insufficient evidence to determine the effect of this variant on RHO function (PMID: 30977563). 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 RHO protein function. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 955802). This missense change has been observed in individual(s) with autosomal dominant retinitis pigmentosa (PMID: 11139241, 21677794, 31087526). In at least one individual the variant was observed to be de novo. This variant is not present in population databases (gnomAD no frequency). This sequence change replaces lysine, which is basic and polar, with asparagine, which is neutral and polar, at codon 296 of the RHO protein (p.Lys296Asn).
