Invitae | RCV003558528 | SCV004295343 | pathogenic | not provided | 2023-02-05 | criteria provided, single submitter | clinical testing | Disruption of this splice site has been observed in individual(s) with neuronal ceroid lipofuscinosis (PMID: 26032578). In at least one individual the data is consistent with being in trans (on the opposite chromosome) from a pathogenic variant. This variant is not present in population databases (gnomAD no frequency). This sequence change affects a donor splice site in intron 12 of the TPP1 gene. While this variant is not anticipated to result in nonsense mediated decay, it likely alters RNA splicing and results in a disrupted protein product. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 558183). Variants that disrupt the consensus splice site are a relatively common cause of aberrant splicing (PMID: 17576681, 9536098). Algorithms developed to predict the effect of sequence changes on RNA splicing suggest that this variant may disrupt the consensus splice site. This variant disrupts a region of the TPP1 protein in which other variant(s) (p.Trp542*) have been determined to be pathogenic (PMID: 31283065; Invitae). This suggests that this is a clinically significant region of the protein, and that variants that disrupt it are likely to be disease-causing. For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. |
