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]

Variant summary: CLN8 c.661G>A (p.Gly221Ser) results in a non-conservative amino acid change located in the TRAM/LAG1/CLN8 homology domain (IPR006634) of the encoded protein sequence. Four of five in-silico tools predict a benign effect of the variant on protein function. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 4.4e-05 in 251482 control chromosomes (gnomAD). This frequency is lower than the maximum expected for a pathogenic variant in CLN8 causing Neuronal Ceroid-Lipofuscinosis (Batten Disease) (0.00087), allowing no conclusion about variant significance. c.661G>A has been reported in the literature in an individual affected with Neuronal Ceroid-Lipofuscinosis (Batten Disease), however no phenotype details were provided (Kousi_2012). This report does not provide unequivocal conclusions about association of the variant with Neuronal Ceroid-Lipofuscinosis (Batten Disease). To our knowledge, no experimental evidence demonstrating an impact on protein function has been reported. Three clinical diagnostic laboratories have submitted clinical-significance assessments for this variant to ClinVar after 2014 without evidence for independent evaluation. All laboratories classified the variant as uncertain significance. Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as uncertain significance. -

This sequence change replaces glycine, which is neutral and non-polar, with serine, which is neutral and polar, at codon 221 of the CLN8 protein (p.Gly221Ser). This variant is present in population databases (rs386834136, gnomAD 0.01%). This missense change has been observed in individual(s) with late infantile neuronal ceroid lipofucinosis (PMID: 21990111). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 56717). 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) performed at Invitae indicates that this missense variant is not expected to disrupt CLN8 protein function. Algorithms developed to predict the effect of sequence changes on RNA splicing suggest that this variant may create or strengthen a splice site. In summary, the available evidence is currently insufficient to determine the role of this variant in disease. Therefore, it has been classified as a Variant of Uncertain Significance. -
