Invitae | RCV001196672 | SCV002117540 | pathogenic | Neuronal ceroid lipofuscinosis 7 | 2023-09-15 | criteria provided, single submitter | clinical testing | For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. This variant disrupts a region of the MFSD8 protein in which other variant(s) (p.Arg482*) have been determined to be pathogenic (PMID: 19177532, 25976102, 28708303; 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. 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. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 930771). This variant has not been reported in the literature in individuals affected with MFSD8-related conditions. This variant is not present in population databases (gnomAD no frequency). This sequence change affects a donor splice site in intron 12 of the MFSD8 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. |
