This sequence change creates a premature translational stop signal (p.Tyr519*) in the PROM1 gene. It is expected to result in an absent or disrupted protein product. Loss-of-function variants in PROM1 are known to be pathogenic (PMID: 17605048, 19718270, 24154662, 25474345). This variant is present in population databases (rs137853907, gnomAD 0.007%). This premature translational stop signal has been observed in individual(s) with retinal dystrophy (PMID: 22025579, 28041643). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 100577). For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. -

Nonsense variant predicted to result in protein truncation or nonsense mediated decay in a gene for which loss of function is a known mechanism of disease; This variant is associated with the following publications: (PMID: 31589614, 22025579, 38219857, 28041643, 31136651, 32783370, 32879782, 38642551, 30926958, 32531858, 31964843, 32581362) -

The homozygous p.Tyr519Ter variant in PROM1 was identified by our study in one individual with cone-rod dystrophy. The p.Tyr519Ter variant in PROM1 has been previously reported in four unrelated individuals with PROM1-associated retinopathy (PMID: 32783370, PMID: 30926958, PMID: 28041643, PMID: 22025579) but has been identified in 0.015% (10/68036) of European (non-Finnish) chromosomes by the Genome Aggregation Database (gnomAD, http://gnomad.broadinstitute.org; dbSNP ID: rs137853907). Although this variant has been seen in the general population in a heterozygous state, its frequency is not high enough to rule out a pathogenic role. Of these previously reported four unrelated individuals (PMID: 32783370, PMID: 30926958, PMID: 28041643, PMID: 22025579), one was a homozygote (PMID: 32783370) and one was a compound heterozygote who carried a reported pathogenic variant in trans (PMID: 30926958, ClinVar Variation ID: 253326), which increases the likelihood that the p.Tyr519Ter variant in PROM1 is pathogenic. This variant has also been reported in ClinVar (Variation ID: 100577) and has been interpreted as pathogenic by multiple submitters. This nonsense variant leads to a premature termination codon at position 519, which is predicted to lead to a truncated or absent protein. Loss of function of the PROM1 gene is an established disease mechanism in autosomal recessive PROM1-associated retinal disease. In summary, this variant meets criteria to be classified as pathogenic for autosomal recessive neuronal PROM1-associated retinal disease.

PROM1-related disorder Pathogenic:1
The PROM1 c.1557C>A variant is predicted to result in premature protein termination (p.Tyr519*). This variant has been reported in the compound heterozygous state in an individual with cone-rod dystrophy (Table S2, Carss et al. 2017. PubMed ID: 28041643; Table S1, Weisschuh et al. 2020. PubMed ID: 32531858). This variant is reported in 0.0070% of alleles in individuals of European (Non-Finnish) descent in gnomAD. Nonsense variants in PROM1 are expected to be pathogenic. Given the evidence, we interpret this variant as pathogenic for autosomal recessive disease. -
