Genes affected
PROM1 (HGNC:9454): (prominin 1) This gene encodes a pentaspan transmembrane glycoprotein. The protein localizes to membrane protrusions and is often expressed on adult stem cells, where it is thought to function in maintaining stem cell properties by suppressing differentiation. Mutations in this gene have been shown to result in retinitis pigmentosa and Stargardt disease. Expression of this gene is also associated with several types of cancer. This gene is expressed from at least five alternative promoters that are expressed in a tissue-dependent manner. Multiple transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been found for this gene. [provided by RefSeq, Mar 2009]

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. -

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. ACMG/AMP Criteria applied: PVS1, PM3_Strong (Richards 2015). -

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. -
