Nonsense variant predicted to result in protein truncation or nonsense mediated decay in a gene for which loss-of-function is a known mechanism of disease; Not observed at significant frequency in large population cohorts (gnomAD); This variant is associated with the following publications: (PMID: 17345604, 27104957, 28829391, 17964524, 20683928, 25920555, 28497568, 28559085, 31091803, 17564967, 26766544, 28181551, 26092869, 31734136, 32208788, 32865313, 34426522, 31589614, 29398085, 25525159) -

CEP290-related disorder Pathogenic:2
The CEP290 c.4723A>T variant is predicted to result in premature protein termination (p.Lys1575*). This variant has been reported to be causative for Leber congenital amaurosis and Joubert syndrome (Perrault et al. 2007. PubMed ID: 17345604; Bachmann-Gagescu et al. 2015. PubMed ID: 26092869; Roosing et al. 2017. PubMed ID: 28829391). This variant is reported in 0.011% of alleles in individuals of European (Non-Finnish) descent in gnomAD. Nonsense variants in CEP290 are expected to be pathogenic, and this variant has been classified as pathogenic in ClinVar (https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/clinvar/variation/1339/). Given the evidence, we interpret c.4723A>T (p.Lys1575*) as pathogenic. -
Variant summary: CEP290 c.4723A>T (p.Lys1575X) results in a premature termination codon, predicted to cause a truncation of the encoded protein or absence of the protein due to nonsense mediated decay, which are commonly known mechanisms for disease. Truncations downstream of this position have been classified as pathogenic by our laboratory. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 5.5e-05 in 216510 control chromosomes (gnomAD). c.4723A>T has been reported in the literature as a biallelic genotype in multiple individuals affected with CEP290-Related Disorders (e.g. Perrault_2007, Halbritter_2012). These data indicate that the variant is very likely to be associated with disease. To our knowledge, no experimental evidence demonstrating an impact on protein function has been reported. Twelve ClinVar submitters have assessed the variant since 2014: all have classified the variant as pathogenic. Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as pathogenic. -

The CEP290 c.4723A>T variant was identified in an individual with retinitis pigmentosa with a presumed recessive inheritance pattern. Through a review of available evidence we were able to apply the following criteria: PVS1, PM2, PM3. Based on this evidence we have classified this variant as Pathogenic. -

Inborn genetic diseases Pathogenic:1
The c.4723A>T (p.K1575*) alteration, located in exon 36 (coding exon 35) of the CEP290 gene, consists of a A to T substitution at nucleotide position 4723. This changes the amino acid from a lysine (K) to a stop codon at amino acid position 1575. This alteration is expected to result in loss of function by premature protein truncation or nonsense-mediated mRNA decay. Based on data from gnomAD, the T allele has an overall frequency of 0.006% (15/247902) total alleles studied. The highest observed frequency was 0.015% (1/6510) of Other alleles. This variant has been identified in the homozygous state and in conjunction with other CEP290 variants in individuals with features consistent with CEP290-related ciliopathy; in at least one instance, the variants were identified in trans (Feldhaus, 2020; Yohe, 2020; Sallum, 2020; Skorczyk-Werner, 2020; Barny, 2019; Sheck, 2018; Duijkers, 2018; Summers, 2017; Roosing, 2017; Stone, 2017; Bachmann-Gagescu, 2015; Coppieters, 2010; Perrault, 2007). Based on the available evidence, this alteration is classified as pathogenic. -

This sequence change creates a premature translational stop signal (p.Lys1575*) in the CEP290 gene. It is expected to result in an absent or disrupted protein product. Loss-of-function variants in CEP290 are known to be pathogenic (PMID: 16909394, 17345604, 20690115). This variant is present in population databases (rs137852834, gnomAD 0.01%). This premature translational stop signal has been observed in individual(s) with CEP290-related disorders (PMID: 17345604, 20683928, 23188109, 25920555, 26092869, 28497568, 28829391, 29398085). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 1339). Algorithms developed to predict the effect of sequence changes on RNA splicing suggest that this variant may disrupt the consensus splice site. For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. -
