Genes affected
CC2D2A (HGNC:29253): (coiled-coil and C2 domain containing 2A) This gene encodes a coiled-coil and calcium binding domain protein that appears to play a critical role in cilia formation. Mutations in this gene cause Meckel syndrome type 6, as well as Joubert syndrome type 9. Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants. [provided by RefSeq, Sep 2009]

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; This variant is associated with the following publications: (PMID: 25525159, 27081510, 19466712, 22241855, 26092869, 31589614, 33486889, 18950740, 29165578, 31964843)

Collection Method:clinical testing

The CC2D2A p.R1019* variant was identified in the heterozygous or compound heterozygous state in 4 of 194 families with Joubert syndrome and related disorders (Gorden_2008_PMID:18950740; Bachmann-Gagescu_2012_PMID:22241855). The variant was identified in dbSNP (ID: rs370880399) and ClinVar (classified as pathogenic by Invitae, GeneDx, Fulgent Genetics, UW Hindbrain Malformation Research Program, University of Washington and as likely pathogenic by Illumina). The variant was identified in control databases in 26 of 267576 chromosomes at a frequency of 0.00009717 (Genome Aggregation Database March 6, 2019, v2.1.1). The variant was observed in the following populations: Ashkenazi Jewish in 14 of 10098 chromosomes (freq: 0.001386), Other in 2 of 6912 chromosomes (freq: 0.000289), African in 2 of 23072 chromosomes (freq: 0.000087), Latino in 2 of 33894 chromosomes (freq: 0.000059), European (non-Finnish) in 5 of 121798 chromosomes (freq: 0.000041) and South Asian in 1 of 28914 chromosomes (freq: 0.000035), but was not observed in the East Asian or European (Finnish) populations. The c.3055C>T variant leads to a premature stop codon at position 1019 which is predicted to lead to a truncated or absent protein and loss of function. Loss of function variants of the CC2D2A gene are an established mechanism of disease in Joubert syndrome and related disorders and is the type of variant expected to cause the disorder when found in the homozygous or compound heterozygous state. The variant occurs outside of the splicing consensus sequence and in silico or computational prediction software programs (SpliceSiteFinder, MaxEntScan, NNSPLICE, GeneSplicer) do not predict a difference in splicing. In summary, based on the above information this variant meets our laboratory’s criteria to be classified as pathogenic.

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

The CC2D2A c.3055C>T (p.Arg1019Ter) variant is a stop-gained variant that is predicted to cause premature truncation of the protein. This variant has been identified in at least four probands with Joubert syndrome, including in three in a compound heterozygous state with a missense variant and in one in a heterozygous state where a second variant was not detected (Gorden et al. 2008; Bachmann-Gagescu et al. 2012; Bachmann-Gagescu et al. 2015). The p.Arg1019Ter variant has also been reported in a homozygous state as a result of a different nucleotide substitution in one individual with Joubert syndrome (Ben-Salem et al. 2014). Control data are unavailable for this variant which is reported at a frequency of 0.00025 in the total population of the Exome Sequencing Project. Based on the evidence and due to the potential impact of stop-gained variants, the p.Arg1019Ter variant is classified as likely pathogenic for CC2D2A-related disorders. This variant was observed by ICSL as part of a predisposition screen in an ostensibly healthy population.

The CC2D2A c.3055C>T variant is predicted to result in premature protein termination (p.Arg1019*). This variant has been reported in multiple individuals with Joubert syndrome (Gorden et al. 2008. PubMed ID: 18950740; Bachmann-Gagescu et al. 2015. PubMed ID: 26092869). We have also detected this variant in the compound heterozygous state in a child with Joubert syndrome (internal data, PreventionGenetics). Taken together, we interpret this variant as pathogenic.

This sequence change creates a premature translational stop signal (p.Arg1019*) in the CC2D2A gene. It is expected to result in an absent or disrupted protein product. Loss-of-function variants in CC2D2A are known to be pathogenic (PMID: 19777577). This variant is present in population databases (rs370880399, gnomAD 0.2%). This premature translational stop signal has been observed in individual(s) with Joubert syndrome (PMID: 18950740, 22241855, 26092869, 27082236). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 217602). For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic.
