The NM_000391.4(TPP1):c.225A>G (p.Gln75Gln) variant causes a synonymous change involving the alteration of a non-conserved nucleotide. The variant allele was found at a cumulative frequency of 0.0000105 (AC=17) in the gnomAD database across 1,613,724 control chromosomes (no homozygotes observed). The grpmax filtering allele frequency (95% CI) is 0.000236. In-silico predictor (BayesDel (noAF)) classifies this variant as likely benign. Variant has been reported in ClinVar as Pathogenic/Likely Pathogenic (★★). ClinVar reports functional evidence for this variant: "SCV002768068: "This variant has strong functional evidence supporting abnormal protein function. Individuals either compound heterozygous or homozygous for this variant, have been consistently demonstrated to have reduced Tpp1 enzyme activity, considered to be the gold standard of diagnosing individuals with neuronal ceroid lipofuscinosis 2 (PMID:10330339, PMID:32329550, PMID:23418007, Nunes, A. et al. (2020))."".

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.
