RCV000481864 | SCV000566896 | pathogenic | not provided | 2015-07-18 | criteria provided, single submitter | clinical testing | The c.2969delC deletion in the CEP290 gene has not been reported previously as a pathogenic variant nor as a benign polymorphism, to our knowledge. The c.2969delC deletion is predictedto cause loss of normal protein function either through protein truncation or nonsense-mediated mRNAdecay. Protein truncating variants downstream of this deletion have been reported in the Human GeneMutation Database in association with CEP290-related disorders (Stenson et al., 2014), supporting thepathogenicity of more upstream truncating variants. The c.2969delC variant was not observed inapproximately 5900 individuals of European and African American ancestry in the NHLBI ExomeSequencing Project, indicating it is not a common benign variant in these populations. We interpretc.2969delC as a pathogenic variant. |
