Genes affected
TTC21B (HGNC:25660): (tetratricopeptide repeat domain 21B) This gene encodes a member of TTC21 family, containing several tetratricopeptide repeat (TPR) domains. This protein is localized to the cilium axoneme, and may play a role in retrograde intraflagellar transport in cilia. Mutations in this gene are associated with various ciliopathies, nephronophthisis 12, and asphyxiating thoracic dystrophy 4. [provided by RefSeq, Oct 2011]

Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingGeneDxSep 05, 2023In silico analysis supports that this missense variant does not alter protein structure/function; Has not been previously published as pathogenic or benign to our knowledge -
Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingARUP Laboratories, Molecular Genetics and Genomics, ARUP LaboratoriesMar 21, 2022The TTC21B c.19A>G, p.Lys7Glu variant (rs375721812), to our knowledge, is not reported in the medical literature but is reported in ClinVar (Variation ID: 331843). This variant is found in the European population with an allele frequency of .16% (52/32148 alleles) in the Genome Aggregation Database. The lysine at position 7 is weakly conserved, and computational analyses are uncertain whether this variant is neutral or deleterious (REVEL: 0.188). Although evidence suggests that p.Lys7Glu may be a rare benign variant, there is insufficient information to determine its clinical significance with certainty. -
Asphyxiating thoracic dystrophy 4 Uncertain:1
Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingIllumina Laboratory Services, IlluminaJan 12, 2018This variant was observed in the ICSL laboratory as part of a predisposition screen in an ostensibly healthy population. It had not been previously curated by ICSL or reported in the Human Gene Mutation Database (HGMD: prior to June 1st, 2018), and was therefore a candidate for classification through an automated scoring system. Utilizing variant allele frequency, disease prevalence and penetrance estimates, and inheritance mode, an automated score was calculated to assess if this variant is too frequent to cause the disease. Based on the score, this variant could not be ruled out of causing disease and therefore its association with disease required further investigation. A literature search was performed for the gene, cDNA change, and amino acid change (if applicable). No publications were found based on this search. This variant was therefore classified as a variant of unknown significance for this disease. -
Jeune thoracic dystrophy;C0687120:Nephronophthisis Uncertain:1
Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingInvitaeOct 24, 2022This sequence change replaces lysine, which is basic and polar, with glutamic acid, which is acidic and polar, at codon 7 of the TTC21B protein (p.Lys7Glu). This variant is present in population databases (rs375721812, gnomAD 0.2%), and has an allele count higher than expected for a pathogenic variant. This variant has not been reported in the literature in individuals affected with TTC21B-related conditions. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 331843). Algorithms developed to predict the effect of missense changes on protein structure and function (SIFT, PolyPhen-2, Align-GVGD) all suggest that this variant is likely to be tolerated. 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. -
