Genes affected
CEP152 (HGNC:29298): (centrosomal protein 152) This gene encodes a protein that is thought to be involved with centrosome function. Mutations in this gene have been associated with primary microcephaly (MCPH4). Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants. [provided by RefSeq, Aug 2010]

Stop-gained (nonsense): predicted to result in a loss or disruption of normal protein function through nonsense-mediated decay (NMD) or protein truncation. Multiple pathogenic variants are reported downstream of the variant (PVS1_VS). It is observed at an extremely low frequency in the gnomAD v2.1.1 dataset (total allele frequency: 0.000295, PM2). The variant was observed in trans with a pathogenic variant (NM_001194998.1:c.314G>A) as compound heterozygous (3billion dataset, PM3).The variant has been reported as pathogenic (ClinVar ID: VCV000158240.10). Therefore, this variant is classified as pathogenic according to the recommendation of ACMG/AMP guideline. -

This sequence change creates a premature translational stop signal (p.Tyr678*) in the CEP152 gene. It is expected to result in an absent or disrupted protein product. Loss-of-function variants in CEP152 are known to be pathogenic (PMID: 21131973). This variant is present in population databases (rs182018947, gnomAD 0.1%). This premature translational stop signal has been observed in individual(s) with CEP152-related conditions (PMID: 21131973). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 158240). For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. -

The stop gained c.2034T>G(p.Tyr678Ter) variant in CEP152 gene has been reported previously in compound heterozygous state in individual(s) affected with Seckel syndrome (Kalay E, et. al., 2011; Fujikura K., 2016). The p.Tyr678Ter variant has been reported with allele frequency of 0.03% in gnomAD Exomes. This variant has been reported to the ClinVar database as Uncertain Signifiance / Likely Pathogenic / Pathogenic (multiple submissions). The nucleotide change c.2034T>G in CEP152 is predicted as conserved by GERP++. This sequence change creates a premature translational stop signal (p.Tyr678Ter) in the CEP152 gene. This variant is predicted to cause loss of normal protein function through protein truncation. Loss of function variants have been previously reported to be disease causing. For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. -

Variant summary: CEP152 c.2034T>G (p.Tyr678X) 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. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 0.00027 in 249546 control chromosomes (gnomAD). This frequency is not significantly higher than estimated for a pathogenic variant in CEP152 causing CEP152-Related Disorders, allowing no conclusion about variant significance. c.2034T>G has been reported in the literature in individuals affected with CEP152-Related Disorders (Kalay_2011). To our knowledge, no experimental evidence demonstrating an impact on protein function has been reported. The following publication have been ascertained in the context of this evaluation (PMID: 21131973). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 158240). Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as pathogenic. -

Review Status:criteria provided, single submitter
Collection Method:clinical testing

The c.2034T>G (p.Y678*) alteration, located in exon 16 (coding exon 15) of the CEP152 gene, consists of a T to G substitution at nucleotide position 2034. This changes the amino acid from a tyrosine (Y) to a stop codon at amino acid position 678. This alteration is expected to result in loss of function by premature protein truncation or nonsense-mediated mRNA decay. This alteration has been reported in the compound heterozygous state with a second CEP152 alteration in a patient with clinical features of CEP152-related Seckel syndrome (Kalay, 2011). Based on the available evidence, this alteration is classified as pathogenic. -
