The Q1628X nonsense variant in the CEP290 gene has been previously reported as a compound heterozygous change in individuals with CEP290-related disorders (Perrault et al., 2007, Chaki et al., 2011). This pathogenic variant is predicted to cause loss of normal protein function either through protein truncation or nonsense-mediated mRNA decay. The Q1628X variant is not observed at a significant frequency in large population cohorts (Lek et al., 2016; 1000 Genomes Consortium et al., 2015; Exome Variant Server). Therefore, we interpret Q1628X as a pathogenic variant. -

This variant was classified as: Pathogenic. The following ACMG criteria were applied in classifying this variant: PVS1,PS1,PM2. -
Inborn genetic diseases Pathogenic:1
The c.4882C>T (p.Q1628*) alteration, located in exon 37 (coding exon 36) of the CEP290 gene, consists of a C to T substitution at nucleotide position 4882. This changes the amino acid from a glutamine (Q) to a stop codon at amino acid position 1628. This alteration is expected to result in loss of function by premature protein truncation or nonsense-mediated mRNA decay. Based on data from the Genome Aggregation Database (gnomAD) database, the CEP290 c.4882C>T alteration was observed in 0.01% (12/172352) of total alleles studied, with a frequency of 0.09% (8/8706) in the Ashkenazi Jewish subpopulation. The alteration has been reported in the compound heterozygous state in multiple patients with Leber congenital amaurosis and/or Joubert syndrome (Perrault, 2007; Brancati, 2007; Chaki, 2011; Wang, 2013; Summers, 2017; Feldhaus, 2020). Based on the available evidence, this alteration is classified as pathogenic. -

This sequence change creates a premature translational stop signal (p.Gln1628*) in the CEP290 gene. It is expected to result in an absent or disrupted protein product. Loss-of-function variants in CEP290 are known to be pathogenic (PMID: 16909394, 17345604, 20690115). This variant is present in population databases (rs376493409, gnomAD 0.09%). This premature translational stop signal has been observed in individual(s) with Joubert syndrome or Leber congenital amaurosis (PMID: 17345604, 21866095, 26092869, 28497568). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 217635). For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. -
CEP290-related disorder Pathogenic:1
The CEP290 c.4882C>T variant is predicted to result in premature protein termination (p.Gln1628*). This variant has been reported in both the homozygous and compound heterozygous states in multiple individuals affected with CEP290-related autosomal recessive disorders, including Joubert syndrome and Leber congenital amaurosis 10 (Patient 247, Perrault et al. 2007. PubMed ID: 17345604; UW016-1, Table S5, Bachmann-Gagescu et al. 2015. PubMed ID: 26092869; Table S2, Summers et al. 2017. PubMed ID: 28497568). This variant is reported in 0.092% of alleles in individuals of Ashkenazi Jewish descent in gnomAD. Nonsense variants in CEP290 are expected to be pathogenic, and this variant has been classified as pathogenic by multiple independent submitters to the ClinVar database (https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/clinvar/variation/217635). Given all the evidence, we interpret c.4882C>T (p.Gln1628*) as pathogenic. -
