Variant summary
Our verdict is Pathogenic. The variant received 12 ACMG points: 12P and 0B. PM5PP3_ModeratePP5_Very_Strong
The NM_018941.4(CLN8):c.208C>T(p.Arg70Cys) variant causes a missense change. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 0.0000116 in 1,461,512 control chromosomes in the GnomAD database, with no homozygous occurrence. In-silico tool predicts a pathogenic outcome for this variant. Variant has been reported in ClinVar as Likely pathogenic (★★). Another variant affecting the same amino acid position, but resulting in a different missense (i.e. R70P) has been classified as Likely pathogenic.

Neuronal ceroid lipofuscinosis Pathogenic:2
This sequence change replaces arginine, which is basic and polar, with cysteine, which is neutral and slightly polar, at codon 70 of the CLN8 protein (p.Arg70Cys). This variant is present in population databases (rs765097897, gnomAD 0.007%). This missense change has been observed in individual(s) with clinical features of neuronal ceroid lipofuscinosis (PMID: 31069529, 37074398). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 242453). Invitae Evidence Modeling of protein sequence and biophysical properties (such as structural, functional, and spatial information, amino acid conservation, physicochemical variation, residue mobility, and thermodynamic stability) indicates that this missense variant is expected to disrupt CLN8 protein function with a positive predictive value of 95%. This variant disrupts the p.Arg70 amino acid residue in CLN8. Other variant(s) that disrupt this residue have been determined to be pathogenic (PMID: 21990111, 31130284; internal data). This suggests that this residue is clinically significant, and that variants that disrupt this residue are likely to be disease-causing. In summary, the currently available evidence indicates that the variant is pathogenic, but additional data are needed to prove that conclusively. Therefore, this variant has been classified as Likely Pathogenic. -
