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]

ACMG classification

Classification made for transcript

Verdict is Benign. Variant got -12 ACMG points.

PM1
In a domain TLC (size 200) in uniprot entity CLN8_HUMAN there are 39 pathogenic changes around while only 14 benign (74%) in NM_018941.4
PM2
Very rare variant in population databases, with high coverage;
BP4
Computational evidence support a benign effect (MetaRNN=0.050075352).
BP6
Variant 8-1780431-C-T is Benign according to our data. Variant chr8-1780431-C-T is described in ClinVar as [Likely_benign]. Clinvar id is 205195.Status of the report is criteria_provided_multiple_submitters_no_conflicts, 2 stars.
BS1
Variant frequency is greater than expected in population eas. gnomad4_exome allele frequency = 0.000129 (188/1461892) while in subpopulation EAS AF= 0.00305 (121/39700). AF 95% confidence interval is 0.00261. There are 1 homozygotes in gnomad4_exome. There are 102 alleles in male gnomad4_exome subpopulation. Median coverage is 32. This position pass quality control queck.
