Genes affected

CTNS (HGNC:2518): (cystinosin, lysosomal cystine transporter) This gene encodes a seven-transmembrane domain protein that functions to transport cystine out of lysosomes. Its activity is driven by the H+ electrochemical gradient of the lysosomal membrane. Mutations in this gene cause cystinosis, a lysosomal storage disorder. Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2009]

CTNS-AS1 (HGNC:56090): (CTNS antisense RNA 1)

ACMG classification

Verdict is Pathogenic. Variant got 18 ACMG points.

• PVS1: Loss of function variant, product undergoes nonsense mediated mRNA decay. LoF is a known mechanism of disease.
• PM2: Very rare variant in population databases, with high coverage
• PP5: Variant 17-3656759-C-CAA is Pathogenic according to our data. Variant chr17-3656759-C-CAA is described in ClinVar as [Likely_pathogenic]. Clinvar id is 2681024.Status of the report is criteria_provided_multiple_submitters_no_conflicts, 2 stars.

Significance: Pathogenic

Review Status: criteria provided, single submitter

Collection Method: clinical testing

This sequence change creates a premature translational stop signal (p.Thr216Lysfs*3) in the CTNS gene. It is expected to result in an absent or disrupted protein product. Loss-of-function variants in CTNS are known to be pathogenic (PMID: 9537412, 27102039). This variant is not present in population databases (gnomAD no frequency). This variant has not been reported in the literature in individuals affected with CTNS-related conditions. For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. -
