Genes affected
PPT1 (HGNC:9325): (palmitoyl-protein thioesterase 1) The protein encoded by this gene is a small glycoprotein involved in the catabolism of lipid-modified proteins during lysosomal degradation. The encoded enzyme removes thioester-linked fatty acyl groups such as palmitate from cysteine residues. Defects in this gene are a cause of infantile neuronal ceroid lipofuscinosis 1 (CLN1, or INCL) and neuronal ceroid lipofuscinosis 4 (CLN4). Two transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been found for this gene.[provided by RefSeq, Dec 2008]

This sequence change affects the initiator methionine of the PPT1 mRNA. The next in-frame methionine is located at codon 41. This variant is not present in population databases (gnomAD no frequency). Disruption of the initiator codon has been observed in individual(s) with neuronal ceroid lipofuscinosis (PMID: 9664077, 11073228, 11440996). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 56193). Algorithms developed to predict the effect of variants on gene product structure and function are not available or were not evaluated for this variant. Experimental studies have shown that disruption of the initiator codon affects PPT1 function (PMID: 11440996). For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. -

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

The c.3G>A (p.M1?) alteration is located in coding exon 1 of the PPT1 gene and results from a G to A substitution at nucleotide position 1. This alters the methionine residue at the initiation codon (ATG). Sequence variations that modify the initiation codon are expected to result in either loss of translation initiation, N-terminal truncation, or cause a shift in the mRNA reading frame. This mutation was identified in two individuals with neuronal ceroid lipofuscinosis in conjunction with a second PPT1 variant (Das, 1998). Based on the available evidence, this alteration is classified as pathogenic. -

Published functional studies demonstrate a damaging effect suggesting a partial defect in protein expression (Lyly et al., 2007); Not observed at significant frequency in large population cohorts (gnomAD); This variant is associated with the following publications: (PMID: 10191107, 33561134, 9664077, 17565660, 11440996, 29631617, 11073228) -

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

Variant summary: PPT1 c.3G>A (p.Met1Ile) alters the initiation codon and is predicted to result either in absence of the protein or truncation of the encoded protein due to translation initiation at a downstream codon. Two of four in-silico tools predict a benign effect of the variant on protein function. The variant was absent in 247912 control chromosomes (gnomAD, v2). c.3G>A has been reported in the literature in at least three individuals affected with late-infantile or juvenile-onset Neuronal Ceroid-Lipofuscinosis (Batten Disease) (Das_1998, Hofmann_1999). These data indicate that the variant is likely to be associated with disease. Publications also reported experimental evidence evaluating an impact on protein function, and demonstrated a greatly reduced protein expression, with a largely preserved specific activity in transfected cells, which was in accordance with the significantly reduced enzyme activity in patient derived cell lines (Das_2001, Lyly_2007, Sima_2018). Three clinical diagnostic laboratories have submitted clinical-significance assessments for this variant to ClinVar after 2014 and classified the variant as pathogenic/likely pathogenic. Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as pathogenic. -
