Abstract
Retinitis pigmentosa is a phenotype with diverse genetic causes. Due to this genetic heterogeneity, genome-wide identification and analysis of protein-altering DNA variants by exome sequencing is a powerful tool for novel variant and disease gene discovery. In this study, exome sequencing analysis was used to search for potentially causal DNA variants in a two-generation pedigree with apparent dominant retinitis pigmentosa.
Variant identification and analysis of three affected members (mother and two affected offspring) was performed via exome sequencing. Parental samples of the index case were used to establish inheritance. Follow-up testing of 94 additional retinitis pigmentosa pedigrees was performed via retrospective analysis or Sanger sequencing.
A total of 136 high quality coding variants in 123 genes were identified which are consistent with autosomal dominant disease. Of these, one of the strongest genetic and functional candidates is a c.269A>G (p.Tyr90Cys) variant in

<abstract><sec id="sec001"><title>Background</title>
<p>Retinitis pigmentosa is a phenotype with diverse genetic causes. Due to this genetic heterogeneity, genome-wide identification and analysis of protein-altering DNA variants by exome sequencing is a powerful tool for novel variant and disease gene discovery. In this study, exome sequencing analysis was used to search for potentially causal DNA variants in a two-generation pedigree with apparent dominant retinitis pigmentosa.</p>
</sec>
<sec id="sec002"><title>Methods</title>
<p>Variant identification and analysis of three affected members (mother and two affected offspring) was performed via exome sequencing. Parental samples of the index case were used to establish inheritance. Follow-up testing of 94 additional retinitis pigmentosa pedigrees was performed via retrospective analysis or Sanger sequencing.</p>
</sec>
<sec id="sec003"><title>Results and Conclusions</title>
<p>A total of 136 high quality coding variants in 123 genes were identified which are consistent with autosomal dominant disease. Of these, one of the strongest genetic and functional candidates is a c.269A>G (p.Tyr90Cys) variant in <italic>ARL3</italic>
. Follow-up testing established that this variant occurred <italic>de novo</italic>
in the index case. No additional putative causal variants in <italic>ARL3</italic>
were identified in the follow-up cohort, suggesting that if <italic>ARL3</italic>
variants can cause adRP it is an extremely rare phenomenon.</p>

<body><sec sec-type="intro" id="sec004"><title>Introduction</title>
<p>Retinitis pigmentosa (RP) [MIM: 268000] is a clinical finding defined by peripheral vision loss due to impaired retinal function which affects approximately 1:3,000–1:5,000 individuals [<xref rid="pone.0150944.ref001" ref-type="bibr">1</xref>
, <xref rid="pone.0150944.ref002" ref-type="bibr">2</xref>
]. The genetic basis of RP is highly heterogeneous, with at least fifty genes identified to date as associated with non-syndromic RP [<xref rid="pone.0150944.ref003" ref-type="bibr">3</xref>
–<xref rid="pone.0150944.ref008" ref-type="bibr">8</xref>
]. Most known forms of inheritance have been demonstrated for RP, including single-gene autosomal recessive, autosomal dominant, and X-linked inheritance and digenic inheritance [<xref rid="pone.0150944.ref009" ref-type="bibr">9</xref>
–<xref rid="pone.0150944.ref011" ref-type="bibr">11</xref>
].</p>
<p>Due to this extreme heterogeneity, massively parallel DNA sequencing has become an integral part of both clinical diagnostics and research of the genetic basis of RP and other retinal dystrophies [<xref rid="pone.0150944.ref006" ref-type="bibr">6</xref>
, <xref rid="pone.0150944.ref010" ref-type="bibr">10</xref>

–<xref rid="pone.0150944.ref017" ref-type="bibr">17</xref>
]. Gene panels are now used clinically to identify variants in known retinal dystrophy genes, with a success rate of approximately 20–40% [<xref rid="pone.0150944.ref006" ref-type="bibr">6</xref>
, <xref rid="pone.0150944.ref016" ref-type="bibr">16</xref>
]. Exome sequencing, the genome-wide identification and analysis of DNA variants resulting in a predicted change in any known protein-coding gene, has been particularly powerful for variant and disease gene discovery for retinal dystrophies [<xref rid="pone.0150944.ref012" ref-type="bibr">12</xref>
, <xref rid="pone.0150944.ref017" ref-type="bibr">17</xref>
] and across nearly all areas of genetics [<xref rid="pone.0150944.ref018" ref-type="bibr">18</xref>
–<xref rid="pone.0150944.ref021" ref-type="bibr">21</xref>
]. These tools provide a cost-effective measure to ending the diagnostic odyssey so often endured in medical genetics.</p>
<p>Pedigree RP02 consists of a four-person nuclear family of reported European Caucasian descent. Three individuals in this pedigree are affected with non-syndromic retinitis pigmentosa (<xref ref-type="fig" rid="pone.0150944.g001">Fig 1</xref>
). As the trait is observed in the mother and one child of each gender, autosomal dominant inheritance was considered a strong possibility. Given the large number of genes and variants which can cause autosomal dominant retinitis pigmentosa (adRP) [<xref rid="pone.0150944.ref007" ref-type="bibr">7</xref>
, <xref rid="pone.0150944.ref008" ref-type="bibr">8</xref>
, <xref rid="pone.0150944.ref022" ref-type="bibr">22</xref>
], exome sequencing was performed on the three affected individuals to identify possible causal DNA variants.</p>

<p>As each individual exome contains 20,000–25,000 DNA variants compared to the human genome reference sequence, a series of bioninformatic analyses were performed first to identify variants within known retinal disease genes and then, if negative, to continue the search for potentially novel disease genes.</p>

<sec id="sec006"><title>Patient Samples</title>
<p>This study was conducted within an Institutional Review Board (IRB)-approved human subjects research program at the University of California Los Angeles (IRB#11–000020, "Genetic Studies in Inherited Ocular Disorders") and the study was conducted in accordance with regulations of the Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act of 1996 (HIPAA). All three individuals enrolled in the Genetics research study and signed a consent form. The UCLA HIPAA consent form specifies the use of the information for publications and research presentations. DNA samples from the nuclear family were obtained from whole blood specimens using standard protocols. DNA samples from parental samples of the index case were collected and extracted using Oragene DNA Saliva kits (DNA Genotek Inc., Ottowa, Ontario, Canada).</p>
<sec id="sec007"><title>Retrospective case report</title>
<p>Mother: At 58 years old at presented with difficulty reading with mild decreased visual acuity and bilateral visual field concentric constriction. She has a history of cataract surgery at age 41 years. Her visual acuity measured as 20/60 in the right eye and 20/80 in the left. Intraocular pressures (IOP) were 12 and 10 for the right and left eye respectively. Visual fields were “central islands” bilaterally, and the retina showed the classic pattern of mid-peripheral pattern of pigmentation with attenuated vessels. Optical coherence tomography (OCT) showed no edema. No other relevant medical problems were reported. Previous genetic testing included mutation screening in the following genes: <italic>CRX</italic>
, <italic>PRPH2</italic>
, <italic>RP1</italic>
and <italic>IMPDH1</italic>
. All were negative.</p>
<p>Daughter: At 27-years old had late onset nyctalopia, decreased vision with difficulty of reading and driving, flashes and floaters for several years and progressive loss of peripheral vision. She has also medical history of difficulties with gait, headaches, difficulties with balance, increased urinary frequency and severe ankle swelling (partially responsive to Lasix, possibly familial lymphedema).</p>
<p>Visual acuity for right and left eyes was 20/80-1 20/60-2. IOP right and left were 13 and 14. Bilateral visual field constriction was observed. A posterior subcapsular cataract (PSC) was identified in the left eye only. Intraocular lens (IOC) noted in the right eye only. Fundus examination revealed vitreous floater in the right eye only. Bilateral attenuation of retinal vessels and bone-spicules were observed in the periphery. OCT showed cystoid macular edema.</p>
<p>Son.: At 30 years-old presented with retinitis pigmentosa and related cystoid macular edema. The patient continues to be very bothered by flashes of light that are severe enough to be almost disabling. Also he has floaters and progressive loss of peripheral vision. The patient had different surgical procedures as Lasik OU (2003), cataract removal OD (2008), Yag, strabismus for exotropia 15–20Δ at 12 and 14 years old. Medical history</p>
<p>Visual acuity for right and left eyes was 20/20 and OS: 20/25+2. IOP left and right were 13 and 14. Both visual fields were constricted. A posterior subcapsular cataract PSC was identified in the left eye only and IOC noted in the right eye only, the same pattern as in his sister. No other relevant medical problems were reported.</p>

<sec id="sec008"><title>Exome Sequencing</title>
<p>Exome sequencing was performed using the Accuracy and Enhanced Content Exome (ACE) pipeline developed by Personalis (Menlo Park, CA). This pipeline is a clinically validated and published protocol including all stages of analysis including: library preparation, target capture, sequencing, alignment, variant calling, and variant annotation [<xref rid="pone.0150944.ref023" ref-type="bibr">23</xref>
]. This methodology detects single nucleotide variants and small insertions and deletions up to approximately 20 nucleotides in length. Larger genetic changes such as deletions, duplications, and copy-neutral structural rearrangements were not analyzed.</p>
<p>The following <italic>in silico</italic>
tools were used to predict the likely impact on protein function of observed DNA variants: LRT, PolyPhen2 [<xref rid="pone.0150944.ref024" ref-type="bibr">24</xref>
], SIFT [<xref rid="pone.0150944.ref025" ref-type="bibr">25</xref>

<sec id="sec009"><title>Variant Filtering</title>
<p>Variants were filtered for quality by removing any variant with a VCF flag of anything except “PASS” and/or having a QUAL score <500. The maximum of 1000 Genomes and Exome Sequencing Project (ESP5400) used as the estimate of minor allele frequency (MAF). Variants below 1% MAF were considered “rare” while variants > = 1% were filtered out of analysis. Synonymous and intronic variants not known to cause splice defects were also removed during filtering (see <xref ref-type="supplementary-material" rid="pone.0150944.s002">S1 Table</xref>

<p>Two variants were identified within genes known to be implicated in retinal degeneration, one each in <italic>RP1L1</italic>
and <italic>MFRP</italic>
. The c.3978_3979insGAA (p.Lys1326_Thr1327insGlu) variant in <italic>RP1L1</italic>
(NM_178857.5) identified as heterozygous in all three individuals has not been previously observed in the general population or in individuals with retinal dystrophy. It is an in-frame insertion of a single amino acid. This variant was considered unlikely to be pathogenic for several reasons. As <italic>RP1L1</italic>
has reduced penetrance [<xref rid="pone.0150944.ref010" ref-type="bibr">10</xref>
] and a very high non-synonymous rare variant rate in the general population [<xref rid="pone.0150944.ref033" ref-type="bibr">33</xref>
], the prior probability of identifying such a variant is quite high regardless of retinal phenotype. Additionally, the age of onset and retinal phenotype are not consistent with occult macular dystrophy, the clinical condition associated with <italic>RP1L1</italic>
. At this time, this variant must be considered a variant of uncertain clinical significance. The c.1374G>T (p.Leu458Phe) variant in <italic>MFRP</italic>
gene (NM_031433.2) is observed with a minor allele frequency of nearly 1% in Europeans [<xref rid="pone.0150944.ref033" ref-type="bibr">33</xref>
], suggesting this variant is unlikely to cause highly penetrant disease in the heterozygous state.</p>
<p>Ranking of the 96 variants passing all filters was performed using clinical keywords. Manual interpretation of variants identified one strong candidate: a c.269A>G (p.Tyr90Cys) variant in the <italic>ARL3</italic>
(ADP-ribosylation factor-like 3) gene (NM_004311.3, chr10:g.104449696T>C). It's gene product, the Arl3 protein, contains only 182 amino acids, making it a very small target for genetic variation. Likely due to the size of the gene, only 12 out of approximately 6,500 individuals (0.18%) in the Exome Sequencing Project dataset carry a rare heterozygous missense variant in <italic>ARL3</italic>
[<xref rid="pone.0150944.ref033" ref-type="bibr">33</xref>
]. None of these variants are within 10 amino acids of the p.Tyr90Cys variant identified in this study, suggesting that this interval may be relatively depleted of protein variation due to natural selection. All <italic>in silico</italic>
prediction methods used supported the hypothesis that the p.Tyr90Cys variant is likely deleterious to the function of <italic>ARL3</italic>
(<xref ref-type="table" rid="pone.0150944.t002">Table 2</xref>
). Of the vertebrate species with available data, all organisms (95 species spanning fish to primates) have a tyrosine at this aligned position in <italic>ARL3</italic>
, indicating extremely strong evolutionary conservation of this amino acid [as per the Vertebrate Multiz Alignment & Conservation (100 Species) track of the UCSC genome browser accessed November 2015] (<xref ref-type="fig" rid="pone.0150944.g002">Fig 2</xref>
). <italic>In silico</italic>
analysis of protein-protein interactions between Arl3 and two of its major binding partners—RP2 and UNC119—predicts that the p.Tyr90Cys variant has a destabilizing effect on heterodimerization (<xref ref-type="table" rid="pone.0150944.t003">Table 3</xref>

] and disruption of which may cause Joubert Syndrome 22 [MIM: 615665][<xref rid="pone.0150944.ref041" ref-type="bibr">41</xref>

is most highly expressed in the retina and pineal gland (GeneAtlas U133A, gcrma)[<xref rid="pone.0150944.ref042" ref-type="bibr">42</xref>
]. These facts are consistent with functional studies demonstrating that the Arl3 protein is involved in protein trafficking of proteins to the outer segment of photoreceptor cells [<xref rid="pone.0150944.ref034" ref-type="bibr">34</xref>
, <xref rid="pone.0150944.ref035" ref-type="bibr">35</xref>

, <xref rid="pone.0150944.ref044" ref-type="bibr">44</xref>
]. A biochemical study of the RP2-null mouse model for RP suggests that the disease mechanism includes hyperactivity of Arl3 leading to mistrafficking of prenylated cargo in photoreceptor cells [<xref rid="pone.0150944.ref045" ref-type="bibr">45</xref>
]. Given its expression pattern, binding partners, and biochemical, <italic>ARL3</italic>
is a strong <italic>a priori</italic>
candidate gene for retinitis pigmentosa in humans.</p>
<p>This candidacy is strengthened by the fact that the p.Tyr90Cys variant identified in the three affected individuals occurred <italic>de novo</italic>
and transmitted with disease to a subsequent generation in a pedigree consistent with dominant RP. The failure to identify additional <italic>ARL3</italic>
variants in our follow-up cohort suggests that even if the <italic>ARL3</italic>
variant identified in our original family is truly causal for RP, such variants are responsible for only a small fraction of RP cases. Functional studies are merited to assess the biochemical impact of the p.Tyr90Cys variant on the Arl3 protein, and future genome-wide variant identification efforts of RP patients should consider <italic>ARL3</italic>
as a gene of interest. Until functional studies are performed or additional families with <italic>ARL3</italic>
variants are identified, this gene will remain a candidate for autosomal dominant retinitis pigmentosa.</p>
