Genes affected

TTC8 (HGNC:20087): (tetratricopeptide repeat domain 8) This gene encodes a protein that has been directly linked to Bardet-Biedl syndrome. The primary features of this syndrome include retinal dystrophy, obesity, polydactyly, renal abnormalities and learning disabilities. Experimentation in non-human eukaryotes suggests that this gene is expressed in ciliated cells and that it is involved in the formation of cilia. A mutation in this gene has also been implicated in nonsyndromic retinitis pigmentosa. Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants. [provided by RefSeq, Jan 2014]

TTC8 (HGNC:):

ACMG classification

Verdict is Likely_pathogenic. Variant got 7 ACMG points.

• PVS1: Loss of function variant, product does not undergo nonsense mediated mRNA decay. Variant located near the start codon (<100nt), not predicted to undergo nonsense mediated mRNA decay. There are 14 pathogenic variants in the truncated region.
• PM2: Very rare variant in population databases, with high coverage
• PP5: Variant 14-88824759-AG-A is Pathogenic according to our data. Variant chr14-88824759-AG-A is described in ClinVar as [Likely_pathogenic]. Clinvar id is 3344780.Status of the report is no_assertion_criteria_provided, 0 stars.

The TTC8 c.54delG variant is predicted to result in a frameshift and premature protein termination (p.Lys19Serfs*35). To our knowledge, this variant has not been reported in the literature or in a large population database (http://gnomad.broadinstitute.org), indicating this variant is rare. Frameshift variants in TTC8 are expected to be pathogenic. This variant is interpreted as likely pathogenic. -
