Description
For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. Experimental studies have shown that this missense change affects RDH5 function (PMID: 11675386). 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 RDH5 protein function. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 635161). This missense change has been observed in individual(s) with fundus albipunctatus or retinitis albescens (PMID: 17476461, 22736946, 22815624; Invitae). In at least one individual the data is consistent with being in trans (on the opposite chromosome) from a pathogenic variant. This variant is present in population databases (rs377029071, gnomAD 0.002%). This sequence change replaces aspartic acid, which is acidic and polar, with asparagine, which is neutral and polar, at codon 128 of the RDH5 protein (p.Asp128Asn).
