12 One homozygous mutation was not detected by dHPLC; however, the p.Cys2137Tyr homozygote was distinguished from the wild-type by HRM technique. In the same way, one novel change in exon 5 (p.Arg187His) was found only by means of the HRM technique. In addition, dHPLC identified the mutation p.Trp1724Cys in one sample; however, HRM detected the mutation in two samples.

111 In contrast, dHPLC depends on a specific temperature that requires optimization.19 It generally is accepted that routine dHPLC scanning does not detect homozygous sequence alterations, but the situation for melting analyses is less clear.20 In this study, a homozygous mutation (p.Cys2137Tyr) was detected by HRM.

100 In previous studies of the Spanish population, the p.Arg1129Leu variant was identified as a major mutant allele which accounted for 24% of the STGD alleles.14 This variant has been postulated to have a moderately severe effect and has predominantly been associated with a STGD phenotype.14 In contrast, the prevalence of this mutation in patients from North America was less than 1%.15 Interestingly, we identified one 30-year-old patient (ARDM-247), double heterozygous for the p.Arg1129Leu and p.Cys2137Tyr alleles, who presented a CRD phenotype.

101 This p.Cys2137Tyr change was located more towards the amino terminus.

102 Moreover, in other study, the results showed that the changes located in this zone appear to result in altered processing of the protein and to be associated with an earlier onset of disease.16 The p.Cys2137Tyr change in combination with the p.Arg1129Leu allele produced a CRD phenotype.

103 Therefore, we speculate that the novel p.Cys2137Tyr variant could be a severe allele which is modifying the patient`s phenotype.
