Genes affected

CEP78 (HGNC:25740): (centrosomal protein 78) This gene encodes a centrosomal protein that is both required for the regulation of centrosome-related events during the cell cycle, and required for ciliogenesis. The encoded protein has an N-terminal leucine-rich repeat (LRR) domain with six consecutive LRR repeats, and a C-terminal coiled-coil domain. It interacts with the N-terminal catalytic domain of polo-like kinase 4 (PLK4) and colocalizes with PLK4 to the distal end of the centriole. Naturally occurring mutations in this gene cause defects in primary cilia that result in retinal degeneration and sensorineural hearing loss which are associated with cone-rod degeneration disease as well as Usher syndrome. Low expression of this gene is associated with poor prognosis of colorectal cancer patients. [provided by RefSeq, Mar 2017]

ACMG classification

Verdict is Pathogenic. Variant got 15 ACMG points.

• PVS1: Splicing +-2 bp (donor or acceptor) variant, LoF is a know mechanism of disease, No cryptic splice site detected. Exon removal results in frameshift change.
• PM2: Very rare variant in population databases, with high coverage
• PP3: Splicing scoreres supports a deletorius effect: Scorers claiming Pathogenic: dbscSNV1_ADA, dbscSNV1_RF, max_spliceai. No scorers claiming Uncertain. No scorers claiming Benign.
• PP5: Variant 9-78248290-G-A is Pathogenic according to our data. Variant chr9-78248290-G-A is described in ClinVar as [Pathogenic]. Clinvar id is 372269.Status of the report is no_assertion_criteria_provided, 0 stars. Variant chr9-78248290-G-A is described in Lovd as [Pathogenic]. Variant chr9-78248290-G-A is described in Lovd as [Likely_pathogenic]. Variant chr9-78248290-G-A is described in Lovd as [Pathogenic].
