Description
For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. This variant disrupts the p.Ala10 amino acid residue in BEST1. Other variant(s) that disrupt this residue have been observed in individuals with BEST1-related conditions (PMID: 10394929), which suggests that this may be a clinically significant amino acid residue. 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 BEST1 protein function. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 99706). This missense change has been observed in individuals with autosomal dominant Best vitelliform macular dystrophy (PMID: 9700209, 10854112, 25082885, 25174897). It has also been observed to segregate with disease in related individuals. This variant is not present in population databases (gnomAD no frequency). This sequence change replaces alanine, which is neutral and non-polar, with threonine, which is neutral and polar, at codon 10 of the BEST1 protein (p.Ala10Thr).
