Genes affected
CLN6 (HGNC:2077): (CLN6 transmembrane ER protein) This gene is one of eight which have been associated with neuronal ceroid lipofuscinoses (NCL). Also referred to as Batten disease, NCL comprises a class of autosomal recessive, neurodegenerative disorders affecting children. The genes responsible likely encode proteins involved in the degradation of post-translationally modified proteins in lysosomes. The primary defect in NCL disorders is thought to be associated with lysosomal storage function. [provided by RefSeq, Oct 2008]

Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingGeneDxJul 12, 2024Reported in an individual with Kufs disease type B; however a second variant was not identified in CLN6 and authors suggested A34T may be non-pathogenic (PMID: 21549341); In silico analysis indicates that this missense variant does not alter protein structure/function; This variant is associated with the following publications: (PMID: 21549341) -

Neuronal ceroid lipofuscinosis Uncertain:2
Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingLabcorp Genetics (formerly Invitae), LabcorpAug 29, 2022This sequence change replaces alanine, which is neutral and non-polar, with threonine, which is neutral and polar, at codon 34 of the CLN6 protein (p.Ala34Thr). This variant is present in population databases (rs146198681, gnomAD 0.04%). This missense change has been observed in individual(s) with Kufs disease type B (adult neuronal ceroid lipofuscinosis) (PMID: 21549341). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 205152). Algorithms developed to predict the effect of missense changes on protein structure and function output the following: SIFT: "Tolerated"; PolyPhen-2: "Benign"; Align-GVGD: "Class C0". The threonine amino acid residue is found in multiple mammalian species, which suggests that this missense change does not adversely affect protein function. In summary, the available evidence is currently insufficient to determine the role of this variant in disease. Therefore, it has been classified as a Variant of Uncertain Significance. -
Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingIllumina Laboratory Services, IlluminaApr 27, 2017This variant was observed as part of a predisposition screen in an ostensibly healthy population. A literature search was performed for the gene, cDNA change, and amino acid change (where applicable). Publications were found based on this search. However, the evidence from the literature, in combination with allele frequency data from public databases where available, was not sufficient to rule this variant in or out of causing disease. Therefore, this variant is classified as a variant of unknown significance. -
not specified Uncertain:1
Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingWomen's Health and Genetics/Laboratory Corporation of America, LabCorpMay 02, 2024Variant summary: CLN6 c.100G>A (p.Ala34Thr) results in a non-conservative amino acid change in the encoded protein sequence. Four of five in-silico tools predict a benign effect of the variant on protein function. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 0.00023 in 251170 control chromosomes (gnomAD). This frequency is not significantly higher than estimated for a pathogenic variant in CLN6 causing Neuronal Ceroid-Lipofuscinosis (Batten Disease) (0.00023 vs 0.0011), allowing no conclusion about variant significance. c.100G>A has been reported in the literature in a heterozygous individual affected with Kufs disease type B (Arsov_2011). This report does not provide unequivocal conclusions about association of the variant with Neuronal Ceroid-Lipofuscinosis (Batten Disease). To our knowledge, no experimental evidence demonstrating an impact on protein function has been reported. The following publication has been ascertained in the context of this evaluation (PMID: 21549341). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 205152). Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as uncertain significance. -
