Genes affected

IFT140 (HGNC:29077): (intraflagellar transport 140) This gene encodes one of the subunits of the intraflagellar transport (IFT) complex A. Intraflagellar transport is involved in the genesis, resorption and signaling of primary cilia. The primary cilium is a microtubule-based sensory organelle at the surface of most quiescent mammalian cells, that receives signals from its environment, such as the flow of fluid, light or odors, and transduces those signals to the nucleus. Loss of the corresponding protein in mouse results in renal cystic disease. [provided by RefSeq, Jun 2012]

Review Status:no assertion criteria provided

Collection Method:clinical testing

The IFT140 c.1377G>A variant is predicted to result in premature protein termination (p.Trp459*). This variant has been reported to be pathogenic for autosomal recessive retinitis pigmentosa and the autosomal dominant polycystic kidney-spectrum phenotype (Xu et al. 2015. PubMed ID: 26216056; Senum et al. 2022. PubMed ID: 34890546). This variant is reported in 0.22% of alleles in individuals of Ashkenazi Jewish descent in gnomAD. Nonsense variants in IFT140 are expected to be pathogenic. This variant is interpreted as pathogenic for both autosomal dominant and autosomal recessive IFT140-related disorders. -

Significance:Pathogenic

Review Status:criteria provided, single submitter

Collection Method:clinical testing

This sequence change creates a premature translational stop signal (p.Trp459*) in the IFT140 gene. It is expected to result in an absent or disrupted protein product. Loss-of-function variants in IFT140 are known to be pathogenic (PMID: 22503633, 23418020, 24009529, 26216056). This variant is present in population databases (rs140039128, gnomAD 0.2%). This premature translational stop signal has been observed in individual(s) with retinitis pigmentosa (PMID: 26216056). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 580815). For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. -

Significance:Pathogenic

Review Status:criteria provided, single submitter

Collection Method:clinical testing

Based on the classification scheme VCGS_Germline_v1.3.4, this variant is classified as Pathogenic. Following criteria are met: 0102 - Loss of function is a known mechanism of disease in this gene and is associated with retinitis pigmentosa 80 (MIM#617781), short-rib thoracic dysplasia 9 with or without polydactyly (MIM#266920) and cystic kidney disease (MONDO:0002473), IFT140-related (PMID: 34890546). (I) 0108 - This gene is associated with both recessive and dominant disease. Retinitis pigmentosa 80 (MIM#617781) and short-rib thoracic dysplasia 9 with or without polydactyly (MIM#266920) are inherited in an autosomal recessive manner, while cystic kidney disease (MONDO#0002473), IFT140-related is inherited in an autosomal dominant manner (OMIM, PMID: 34890546). (I) 0112 - The dominant condition associated with this gene may have incomplete penetrance. Parents of children with short-rib thoracic dysplasia 9 with or without polydactyly, who carry a single pathogenic variant that has also previously been associated with the dominant cystic kidney disease phenotype, have been reported as unaffected (PMID: 34890546). However these parents weren't specifically assessed for cystic kidney disease. (I) 0201 - Variant is predicted to cause nonsense-mediated decay (NMD) and loss of protein (premature termination codon is located at least 54 nucleotides upstream of the final exon-exon junction). (SP) 0251 - This variant is heterozygous. (I) 0304 - Variant is present in gnomAD (v2) <0.01 (22 heterozygotes, 0 homozygotes). (SP) 0701 - Other NMD predicted variants comparable to the one identified in this case have very strong previous evidence for pathogenicity (DECIPHER). These variants have been reported for both dominant and recessive disease (PMID: 34890546). (SP) 0801 - This variant has strong previous evidence of pathogenicity in unrelated individuals. This variant has been classified as pathogenic by clinical laboratories in ClinVar and has been observed as compound heterozygous in at least one individual with retinitis pigmentosa, and as a single heterozygous variant in several families with autosomal dominant cystic kidney disease (PMIDs: 26216056, 31736247, 34890546). (SP) 0906 - Segregation evidence for this variant is inconclusive. This variant has been observed in two affected individuals from one family with autosomal dominant cystic kidney disease (PMID: 34890546). (I) 1208 - Inheritance information for this variant is not currently available in this individual. (I) Legend: (SP) - Supporting pathogenic, (I) - Information, (SB) - Supporting benign -

Collection Method:curation

The p.Trp459Ter variant in IFT140 was identified in an individual with Retinitis pigmentosa, via a collaborative study between the Broad Institute's Center for Mendelian Genomics and the Pierce lab (https://oculargenomics.meei.harvard.edu/labs/pierce-lab/lab-members/). Through a review of available evidence we were able to apply the following criteria: PVS1, PM2. Based on this evidence we have classified this variant as Likely Pathogenic. If you have any questions about the classification please reach out to the Pierce Lab. -
