Description

The OPA1 c.2873_2876delTTAG variant is predicted to result in a frameshift and premature protein termination (p.Val958Glyfs*3). This variant is also often denoted as c.2708_2711delTTAG (p.Val903Glyfs*3) in the alternate transcript NM_015560.2. This variant has been reported many times as causative for autosomal dominant optic atrophy (see for examples Delettre et al. 2000. PubMed ID: 11017079; Pretegiani et al. 2011. PubMed ID: 21646330; Gaier et al. 2017. PubMed ID: 28848318; Lin et al. 2021. PubMed ID: 34573359). This variant has also been reported in the compound heterozygous state in an individual with early-onset Behr syndrome and the unaffected mother was a carrier of this variant, suggesting there may be incomplete penetrance (Bonneau et al. 2014. PubMed ID: 25012220). This variant is reported in 0.0062% of alleles in individuals of European (Non-Finnish) descent in gnomAD (http://gnomad.broadinstitute.org/variant/3-193384956-CAGTT-C). Frameshift variants in OPA1 are expected to be pathogenic, and this variant has been classified as pathogenic by multiple independent submitters to the ClinVar database (https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/clinvar/variation/5082). Given all the evidence, we interpret c.2873_2876del (p.Val958Glyfs*3) as pathogenic.

Description

Variant summary: OPA1 c.2708_2711delTTAG (p.Val903GlyfsX3) results in a premature termination codon, predicted to cause a truncation of the encoded protein or absence of the protein due to nonsense mediated decay, which are commonly known mechanisms for disease. Several computational tools predict a significant impact on normal splicing: Three predict the variant abolishes a 3' acceptor site. Three predict the variant creates a cryptic 3' acceptor site. However, these predictions have yet to be confirmed by functional studies. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 3.2e-05 in 251242 control chromosomes (gnomAD). c.2708_2711delTTAG has been reported in the literature in multiple individuals affected with autosomal dominant optic atrophy (Cohn_2008). These data indicate that the variant is very likely to be associated with disease. At least one publication reports experimental evidence evaluating an impact on protein function and this variant showed it was more prone to cell death than controls after an exogenous oxidative stress in fibroblasts (Zanna_2008). The following publications have been ascertained in the context of this evaluation (PMID: 17306754, 18222991). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 5082). Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as pathogenic.
