Invitae | RCV001043063 | SCV001206776 | pathogenic | Cerebral cavernous malformation | 2023-07-14 | criteria provided, single submitter | clinical testing | This sequence change creates a premature translational stop signal (p.Phe708*) in the KRIT1 gene. While this is not anticipated to result in nonsense mediated decay, it is expected to disrupt the last 29 amino acid(s) of the KRIT1 protein. This variant is not present in population databases (gnomAD no frequency). This premature translational stop signal has been observed in individual(s) with clinical features of KRIT1-related disorder (Invitae). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 840942). Experimental studies and prediction algorithms are not available or were not evaluated, and the functional significance of this variant is currently unknown. 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 KRIT1 protein in which other variant(s) (p.Thr712Glnfs*8) have been determined to be pathogenic (PMID: 16321204, 18380023; 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. |
