It is expected to result in an absent or disrupted protein product. Loss-of-function variants in CEP290 are known to be pathogenic (PMID: 16909394, 17345604, 20690115). This variant is present in population databases (no rsID available, gnomAD 0.006%). This premature translational stop signal has been observed in individual(s) with cone-rod dystrophy (PMID: 30718709). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 281411). Algorithms developed to predict the effect of sequence changes on RNA splicing suggest that this variant may disrupt the consensus splice site. For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic.
Women's Health and Genetics/Laboratory Corporation of America, LabCorp RCV002222465 SCV002500761 pathogenic CEP290-related disorder 2022-03-29 criteria provided, single submitter clinical testing Variant summary: CEP290 c.2722C>T (p.Arg908X) 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 by our laboratory. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 1.2e-05 in 242780 control chromosomes (gnomAD). c.2722C>T has been reported in the literature in individuals affected with CEP290-Related Disorders (examples: Huang_2018 and Sallum_2020). These data indicate that the variant is likely to be associated with disease. To our knowledge, no experimental evidence demonstrating an impact on protein function has been reported. Five clinical diagnostic laboratories have submitted clinical-significance assessments for this variant to ClinVar after 2014 and all classified the variant as pathogenic (n=4)/likely pathogenic (n=1). Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as pathogenic.

Neuberg Centre For Genomic Medicine, NCGM RCV003447521 SCV004175751 pathogenic Joubert syndrome 5 2023-03-01 criteria provided, single submitter clinical testing The stop gained c.2722C>T(p.Arg908Ter) variant in CEP290 gene has been reported previously in homozygous or compound heterozygous state in individual(s) affected with retinal dystrophy (Jespersgaard et al., 2019). This variant is reported with the allele frequency of 0.001% in the gnomAD Exomes and novel in 1000 Genomes. This variant has been reported to the ClinVar database as Likely Pathogenic / Pathogenic (multiple submitters). This variant is predicted to cause loss of normal protein function through protein truncation. It is expected to result in an absent or disrupted protein product. Loss-of-function variants in CEP290 are known to be pathogenic (Coppieters et al., 2010). For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. In the absence of another reportable variant, the molecular diagnosis is not confirmed.

PreventionGenetics, part of Exact Sciences RCV002222465 SCV004115508 pathogenic CEP290-related disorder 2024-08-11 no assertion criteria provided clinical testing The CEP290 c.2722C>T variant is predicted to result in premature protein termination (p.Arg908*). This variant has been reported along with a second plausible causative variant in three patients, one diagnosed with Leber congenital amaurosis and two diagnosed with Joubert syndrome (Sallum et al. 2020. PubMed ID: 32865313). This variant is reported in 0.0057% of alleles in individuals of East Asian descent in gnomAD. Nonsense variants in CEP290 are expected to be pathogenic. This variant is interpreted as pathogenic.
