Genes affected
TPP1 (HGNC:2073): (tripeptidyl peptidase 1) This gene encodes a member of the sedolisin family of serine proteases. The protease functions in the lysosome to cleave N-terminal tripeptides from substrates, and has weaker endopeptidase activity. It is synthesized as a catalytically-inactive enzyme which is activated and auto-proteolyzed upon acidification. Mutations in this gene result in late-infantile neuronal ceroid lipofuscinosis, which is associated with the failure to degrade specific neuropeptides and a subunit of ATP synthase in the lysosome.

This variant was observed in the ICSL laboratory as part of a predisposition screen in an ostensibly healthy population. It had not been previously curated by ICSL or reported in the Human Gene Mutation Database (HGMD: prior to June 1st, 2018), and was therefore a candidate for classification through an automated scoring system. Utilizing variant allele frequency, disease prevalence and penetrance estimates, and inheritance mode, an automated score was calculated to assess if this variant is too frequent to cause the disease. Based on the score, this variant could not be ruled out of causing disease and therefore its association with disease required further investigation. A literature search was performed for the gene, cDNA change, and amino acid change (if applicable). No publications were found based on this search. This variant was therefore classified as a variant of unknown significance for this disease. -

Variant summary: TPP1 c.101G>A (p.Gly34Asp) results in a non-conservative amino acid change in the encoded protein sequence. Three of five in-silico tools predict a damaging effect of the variant on protein function. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 0.00038 in 250448 control chromosomes. This frequency is not significantly higher than estimated for a pathogenic variant in TPP1 causing Neuronal ceroid lipofuscinosis 2 (0.00038 vs 0.0011), allowing no conclusion about variant significance. To our knowledge, no occurrence of c.101G>A in individuals affected with Neuronal ceroid lipofuscinosis 2 and no experimental evidence demonstrating its impact on protein function have been reported. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 207560). Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as uncertain significance. -

Significance:Uncertain significance
Review Status:criteria provided, single submitter
Collection Method:clinical testing

The c.101G>A (p.G34D) alteration is located in exon 3 (coding exon 3) of the TPP1 gene. This alteration results from a G to A substitution at nucleotide position 101, causing the glycine (G) at amino acid position 34 to be replaced by an aspartic acid (D). Based on insufficient or conflicting evidence, the clinical significance of this alteration remains unclear. -
