Variant summary: CEP55 c.1274C>A (p.Ser425X) results in a premature termination codon, predicted to cause a truncation of the encoded protein. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 1.2e-05 in 251382 control chromosomes, predominantly at a frequency of 2.6e-05 within the Non-Finnish European subpopulation in the gnomAD database. c.1274C>A has been reported in the literature in multiple individuals affected with MARCH syndrome (Barrie_2020, Frosk_2017). These data indicate that the variant is very likely to be associated with disease. At least one publication reports experimental evidence evaluating an impact on protein function. The most pronounced variant effect results in failure to rescue the jaw/cerebellar phenotypes in CEP55 null zebrafish using complementation assays (Frosk_2017). The following publications have been ascertained in the context of this evaluation (PMID: 32100459, 28264986). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 437874). Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as pathogenic. -

PVS1, PS3, PM2, PP1; This paternally-inherited nonsense variant [c.1274C>A, (p.Ser425Ter)] is predicted to be a truncating alteration in a gene where loss-of-function is a known mechanism of disease (ACMG: PVS1). In vitro studies of this variant demonstrated decreased mRNA expression and mislocalization of the protein (PMID: 28264986) (ACMG: PS3). The variant is rare in large-scale population databases (ACMG: PM2), yet homozygosity for this variant has been observed to cosegregate with disease (MARCH syndrome) in a family with multiple affected children (PMID: 28264986)(ACMG: PP1). No evidence was found to support any of the Benign ACMG criteria, therefore this alteration meets ACMG guidelines for classification as a Pathogenic variant. Of note, a maternally-inherited missense variant of uncertain significance [c.70G>A, (p.Glu24Lys)] in CEP55 was also detected in this individual. This second alteration, presumably in trans (ACMG: PM3), was also rare in large-scale population databases (ACMG: PM2); however, insufficient evidence was available to warrant pathogenic or likely pathogenic classification using ACMG criteria. -
