Genes affected
CERKL (HGNC:21699): (ceramide kinase like) This gene was initially identified as a locus (RP26) associated with an autosomal recessive form of retinitis pigmentosa (arRP) disease. This gene encodes a protein with ceramide kinase-like domains, however, the protein does not phosphorylate ceramide and its target substrate is currently unknown. This protein may be a negative regulator of apoptosis in photoreceptor cells. Mutations in this gene cause a form of retinitis pigmentosa characterized by autosomal recessive cone and rod dystrophy (arCRD). Alternative splicing of this gene results in multiple transcript variants encoding different isoforms and non-coding transcripts.[provided by RefSeq, May 2010]

Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingInvitaeNov 28, 2023This sequence change creates a premature translational stop signal (p.Lys200*) in the CERKL gene. It is expected to result in an absent or disrupted protein product. Loss-of-function variants in CERKL are known to be pathogenic (PMID: 14681825, 23591405, 24043777). This variant is present in population databases (rs398122963, gnomAD 0.0009%). This premature translational stop signal has been observed in individual(s) with inherited retinal dystrophy (PMID: 24043777, 25097241). In at least one individual the data is consistent with being in trans (on the opposite chromosome) from a pathogenic variant. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 91393). For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. -
Retinitis pigmentosa Pathogenic:1
Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submittercurationBroad Center for Mendelian Genomics, Broad Institute of MIT and HarvardApr 01, 2021The p.Lys200Ter variant in CERKL was identified in an individual with Retinitis pigmentosa, via a collaborative study between the Broad Institute's Center for Mendelian Genomics and the Pierce lab (https://oculargenomics.meei.harvard.edu/labs/pierce-lab/lab-members/). Through a review of available evidence we were able to apply the following criteria: PVS1, PM2, PM3-P. Based on this evidence we have classified this variant as Pathogenic. If you have any questions about the classification please reach out to the Pierce Lab. -
