Genes affected
CLN6 (HGNC:2077): (CLN6 transmembrane ER protein) This gene is one of eight which have been associated with neuronal ceroid lipofuscinoses (NCL). Also referred to as Batten disease, NCL comprises a class of autosomal recessive, neurodegenerative disorders affecting children. The genes responsible likely encode proteins involved in the degradation of post-translationally modified proteins in lysosomes. The primary defect in NCL disorders is thought to be associated with lysosomal storage function. [provided by RefSeq, Oct 2008]

Neuronal ceroid lipofuscinosis Uncertain:1
Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingInvitaeSep 07, 2022This sequence change replaces arginine, which is basic and polar, with cysteine, which is neutral and slightly polar, at codon 252 of the CLN6 protein (p.Arg252Cys). This variant is present in population databases (rs145746878, gnomAD 0.01%). This variant has not been reported in the literature in individuals affected with CLN6-related conditions. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 457976). Algorithms developed to predict the effect of missense changes on protein structure and function output the following: SIFT: "Tolerated"; PolyPhen-2: "Benign"; Align-GVGD: "Class C0". The cysteine amino acid residue is found in multiple mammalian species, which suggests that this missense change does not adversely affect protein function. 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. -
