Nephropathic cystinosis Pathogenic:5
This 23 bp deletion in CTNS has been previously reported in individuals with nephropathic cystinosis. This CTNS variant (rs759623796) is rare (<0.1%) in a large population dataset (gnomAD: 7/251296 total alleles; 0.003%; no homozygotes) and there is an entry in ClinVar. This frameshift variant results in a premature stop codon in exon 11 likely leading to nonsense-mediated decay and lack of protein production. We consider this variant to be pathogenic. -

The observed frameshift c.771_793del (p.Gly258SerfsTer30) variant in CTNS gene has been reported in homozygous state in individual(s) affected with cystinosis (Chkioua L et al., 2015; Ghazi F, et. al., 2017). The p.Gly258SerfsTer30 variant is present with allele frequency 0.003% in gnomAD Exomes database. This variant has been submitted to the ClinVar database as Likely Pathogenic / Pathogenic (multiple submitters). This variant causes a frameshift starting with codon Glycine 258, changes this amino acid to Serine residue, and creates a premature Stop codon at position 30 of the new reading frame, denoted p.Gly258SerfsTer30. This variant is predicted to cause loss of normal protein function through protein truncation. Loss-of-function variants in CTNS are known to be pathogenic (Elmonem MA, et. al., 2016). For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. -

Cystinosis Pathogenic:3
- -
Variant summary: The variant results in the deletion of a 23 nucleotides leading to a termination codon at position 288 of CTNS. The variant was present at a low frequency in the large and broad cohorts of the ExAC project (3/121,076 chromosomes) while it was observed in multiple CTNS patients in the literature. Considering all evidence, the variant was classified as pathogenic. -

This sequence change creates a premature translational stop signal (p.Gly258Serfs*30) in the CTNS gene. It is expected to result in an absent or disrupted protein product. Loss-of-function variants in CTNS are known to be pathogenic (PMID: 9537412, 27102039). This variant is present in population databases (rs759623796, gnomAD 0.02%). This premature translational stop signal has been observed in individuals with cystinosis (PMID: 10556299, 26266097). This variant is also known as c.1109_1131del23. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 496276). For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. -
