Genes affected
CLN3 (HGNC:2074): (CLN3 lysosomal/endosomal transmembrane protein, battenin) This gene encodes a protein that is involved in lysosomal function. Mutations in this, as well as other neuronal ceroid-lipofuscinosis (CLN) genes, cause neurodegenerative diseases commonly known as Batten disease or collectively known as neuronal ceroid lipofuscinoses (NCLs). Many alternatively spliced transcript variants have been found for this gene. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]

Variant summary: The CLN3 c.944dupA (p.His315GlufsX67) variant results in a premature termination codon, predicted to cause a truncated or absent CLN3 protein due to nonsense mediated decay, which are commonly known mechanisms for disease. One in silico tool predicts a damaging outcome for this variant. This variant was found in 1/245564 control chromosomes (gnomAD) at a frequency of 0.0000041, which does not exceed the estimated maximal expected allele frequency of a pathogenic CLN3 variant (0.0006124). The variant has been reported in affected individuals in the literature (Munroe_1997, Santorelli_2013, Kwon_2011). In addition, multiple clinical diagnostic laboratories/reputable databases classified this variant as pathogenic/likely pathogenic. Taken together, this variant is classified as pathogenic. -

This sequence change creates a premature translational stop signal (p.His315Glnfs*67) in the CLN3 gene. It is expected to result in an absent or disrupted protein product. Loss-of-function variants in CLN3 are known to be pathogenic (PMID: 9311735, 28542676). This variant is present in population databases (rs386833740, gnomAD 0.0009%). This premature translational stop signal has been observed in individuals with juvenile neuronal ceroid lipofuscinoses (PMID: 9311735, 23374165). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 56292). For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. -
