Description
In summary, the available evidence is currently insufficient to determine the role of this variant in disease. Therefore, it has been classified as a Variant of Uncertain Significance. 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 PDE6B protein function. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 1172721). This missense change has been observed in individual(s) with autosomal recessive retinitis pigmentosa (Invitae). In at least one individual the data is consistent with being in trans (on the opposite chromosome) from a pathogenic variant. The frequency data for this variant in the population databases is considered unreliable, as metrics indicate poor data quality at this position in the gnomAD database. This sequence change replaces histidine, which is basic and polar, with arginine, which is basic and polar, at codon 561 of the PDE6B protein (p.His561Arg).
