Labcorp Genetics (formerly Invitae), Labcorp RCV001049952 SCV001214035 pathogenic Senior-Loken syndrome 7; Bardet-Biedl syndrome 16 2024-07-23 criteria provided, single submitter clinical testing This sequence change creates a premature translational stop signal (p.Tyr232*) in the SDCCAG8 gene. It is expected to result in an absent or disrupted protein product. Loss-of-function variants in SDCCAG8 are known to be pathogenic (PMID: 20835237, 22190896). This variant is present in population databases (rs772544112, gnomAD 0.01%). This premature translational stop signal has been observed in individual(s) with clinical features of Senior-Loken syndrome (PMID: 20835237, 21866095). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 846611). For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic.
Women's Health and Genetics/Laboratory Corporation of America, LabCorp RCV002469330 SCV002766327 pathogenic Bardet-Biedl syndrome 2022-11-18 criteria provided, single submitter clinical testing Variant summary: SDCCAG8 c.696T>G (p.Tyr232X) results in a premature termination codon, predicted to cause a truncation of the encoded protein or absence of the protein due to nonsense mediated decay, which are commonly known mechanisms for disease. Truncations downstream of this position have been classified as pathogenic in ClinVar. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 5.6e-05 in 250874 control chromosomes. This frequency is not higher than predicted for a pathogenic variant in SDCCAG8 causing Bardet-Biedl Syndrome (5.6e-05 vs 0.00062), allowing no conclusion about variant significance. c.696T>G has been reported in the literature in individuals affected with Bardet-Biedl Syndrome (examples: Halbritter_2013, and Otto_2010). These data indicate that the variant is likely to be associated with disease. One clinical diagnostic laboratory has submitted clinical-significance assessments for this variant to ClinVar after 2014 and classified the variant as pathogenic. Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as pathogenic.

PreventionGenetics, part of Exact Sciences RCV004735940 SCV005346266 pathogenic SDCCAG8-related disorder 2024-08-04 no assertion criteria provided clinical testing The SDCCAG8 c.696T>G variant is predicted to result in premature protein termination (p.Tyr232*). This variant in homozygous and compound heterozygous state has been reported in patients with Bardet-Biedl syndrome, retinal-renal ciliopathy, and an individual with features suggestive of Senior-Løken syndrome (Otto et al. 2010. PubMed ID: 20835237; Schaefer et al. 2011. PubMed ID: 22190896; Chaki et al. 2011. PubMed ID: 21866095). This variant is reported in 0.012% of alleles in individuals of European (Non-Finnish) descent in gnomAD. Nonsense variants in SDCCAG8 are expected to be pathogenic. This variant is interpreted as pathogenic.
