Genes affected
CLN8 (HGNC:2079): (CLN8 transmembrane ER and ERGIC protein) This gene encodes a transmembrane protein belonging to a family of proteins containing TLC domains, which are postulated to function in lipid synthesis, transport, or sensing. The protein localizes to the endoplasmic reticulum (ER), and may recycle between the ER and ER-Golgi intermediate compartment. Mutations in this gene are associated with a disorder characterized by progressive epilepsy with cognitive disabilities (EPMR), which is a subtype of neuronal ceroid lipofuscinoses (NCL). Patients with mutations in this gene have altered levels of sphingolipid and phospholipids in the brain. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2017]

Neuronal ceroid lipofuscinosis 8 Pathogenic:2
Mar 28, 2024
Women's Health and Genetics/Laboratory Corporation of America, LabCorp
Significance:Pathogenic
Review Status:criteria provided, single submitter
Collection Method:clinical testing

Variant summary: CLN8 c.70C>G (p.Arg24Gly) results in a non-conservative amino acid change in the encoded protein sequence. Five of five in-silico tools predict a damaging effect of the variant on protein function. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 0.0001 in 251484 control chromosomes. c.70C>G has been reported in the literature in multiple individuals affected with Neuronal Ceroid-Lipofuscinosis, CLN8-Related (Northern Epilepsy) (Ranta_1999). These data indicate that the variant is very likely to be associated with disease. At least one publication reports experimental evidence demonstrates that variant does not affect protein localization (Lonka_2004) . The following publications have been ascertained in the context of this evaluation (PMID: 15160397, 10508524). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 2802). Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as pathogenic. -

Neuronal ceroid lipofuscinosis Pathogenic:1
Mar 29, 2023
Labcorp Genetics (formerly Invitae), Labcorp
Significance:Pathogenic
Review Status:criteria provided, single submitter
Collection Method:clinical testing

For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. This missense change has been observed in individuals with progressive epilepsy with mental retardation, also known as Northern epilepsy (PMID: 10508524, 16828266). It is commonly reported in individuals of Finnish ancestry (PMID: 10508524, 16828266). This sequence change replaces arginine, which is basic and polar, with glycine, which is neutral and non-polar, at codon 24 of the CLN8 protein (p.Arg24Gly). This variant is present in population databases (rs104894064, gnomAD 0.1%). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 2802). Advanced modeling of protein sequence and biophysical properties (such as structural, functional, and spatial information, amino acid conservation, physicochemical variation, residue mobility, and thermodynamic stability) has been performed at Invitae for this missense variant, however the output from this modeling did not meet the statistical confidence thresholds required to predict the impact of this variant on CLN8 protein function. Experimental studies have shown that this missense change does not substantially affect CLN8 function (PMID: 10861296, 15160397). -
