Genes affected
IFT140 (HGNC:29077): (intraflagellar transport 140) This gene encodes one of the subunits of the intraflagellar transport (IFT) complex A. Intraflagellar transport is involved in the genesis, resorption and signaling of primary cilia. The primary cilium is a microtubule-based sensory organelle at the surface of most quiescent mammalian cells, that receives signals from its environment, such as the flow of fluid, light or odors, and transduces those signals to the nucleus. Loss of the corresponding protein in mouse results in renal cystic disease. [provided by RefSeq, Jun 2012]

Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingGenetic Services Laboratory, University of ChicagoJun 15, 2021DNA sequence analysis of the IFT140 gene demonstrated a sequence change in the canonical splice donor site of intron 19, c.2399+1G>T. This sequence change is predicted to affect mRNA splicing and is likely to result in an absent or truncated protein. It has been described in the gnomAD database in the non-Finnish European subpopulation with a low frequency of 0.012% only (dbSNP rs376586707). This sequence change has been previously described in the compound heterozygous state in family and individuals with IFT140-related disorders (PMIDs: 22503633, 26968735, 23418020). Collectively, this evidence indicates that the c.2399+1G>T change is pathogenic. -

Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingLabcorp Genetics (formerly Invitae), LabcorpJan 31, 2024This sequence change affects a donor splice site in intron 19 of the IFT140 gene. It is expected to disrupt RNA splicing. Variants that disrupt the donor or acceptor splice site typically lead to a loss of protein function (PMID: 16199547), and loss-of-function variants in IFT140 are known to be pathogenic (PMID: 22503633, 23418020, 24009529, 26216056). This variant is present in population databases (rs376586707, gnomAD 0.01%). Disruption of this splice site has been observed in individuals with IFT140-related conditions (PMID: 22503633, 23418020, 26968735). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 31680). Algorithms developed to predict the effect of sequence changes on RNA splicing suggest that this variant may disrupt the consensus splice site. For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. -

Autosomal dominant polycystic kidney disease Pathogenic:1
Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingMolecular Genetics, Royal Melbourne HospitalJan 05, 2024This sequence change in IFT140 occurs within the canonical splice donor site of intron 19. It is predicted to cause native donor site loss and cryptic donor creation leading to a one bp deletion resulting in a frameshift (exon 19/31) leading to nonsense-mediated decay in a gene in which loss-of-function is an established disease mechanism (PMID: 22282595, 34890546). The highest population minor allele frequency in the population database gnomAD v4.0 is 0.04% (463/1,179,776 alleles) in the European (non-Finnish) population. This variant has been reported as a common cause of IFT140-related polycystic kidney disease (PKD) with a distinctive monoallelic phenotype of mild PKD with large cysts, limited kidney insufficiency, and few liver cysts (PMID: 34890546). The variant has been reported to segregate with PKD in multiple families (PMID: 34890546). This variant has been detected as compound heterozygous with a second pathogenic variant in at least two individuals with a ciliopathy phenotype (PMID: 22503633). Based on the classification scheme RMH Modified ACMG/AMP Guidelines v1.6.1, this variant is classified as PATHOGENIC. Following criteria are met: PVS1, PP1_Strong, PM3. -
IFT140-related disorder Pathogenic:1
Pathogenic, no assertion criteria providedclinical testingPreventionGenetics, part of Exact SciencesSep 05, 2024The IFT140 c.2399+1G>T variant is predicted to disrupt the GT donor site and interfere with normal splicing. This variant along with another IFT140 variant has been reported to be causative for Mainzer-Saldino syndrome and Jeune syndrome (Perrault et al. 2012. PubMed ID: 22503633; Schmidts et al. 2013. PubMed ID: 23418020). It has also been reported along with a missense IFT140 variant in two siblings with retinal dystrophy (Hull et al. 2016. PubMed ID: 26968735). This variant is reported in 0.012% of alleles in individuals of European (Non-Finnish) descent in gnomAD. Variants that disrupt consensus splice donor sites in IFT140 are expected to be pathogenic. Of note, monoallelic IFT140 loss-of-function pathogenic variants have been reported to cause the autosomal dominant polycystic kidney-spectrum phenotype and this splicing variant is among the pathogenic changes found in this study (Senum et al. 2022. PubMed ID: 34890546). This variant is interpreted as pathogenic for both autosomal recessive and autosomal dominant IFT140-related disorders. -
Renal cyst Pathogenic:1
Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingVictorian Clinical Genetics Services, Murdoch Childrens Research InstituteOct 09, 2024Based on the classification scheme VCGS_Germline_v1.3.4, this variant is classified as Pathogenic. Following criteria are met: 0102 - Loss of function is a known mechanism of disease in this gene and is associated with retinitis pigmentosa 80 (MIM#617781), short-rib thoracic dysplasia 9 with or without polydactyly (MIM#266920), and cystic kidney disease (MONDO#0002473), IFT140-related. (I) 0108 - This gene is associated with both recessive and dominant disease. Retinitis pigmentosa 80 (MIM#617781) and short-rib thoracic dysplasia 9 with or without polydactyly (MIM#266920) are inherited in an autosomal recessive manner, while cystic kidney disease (MONDO#0002473), IFT140-related is inherited in an autosomal dominant manner (OMIM, PMID: 34890546) . (I) 0112 - The dominant condition associated with this gene may have incomplete penetrance. Parents of children with short-rib thoracic dysplasia 9 with or without polydactyly, who carry a single pathogenic variant that has also previously been associated with the dominant cystic kidney disease phenotype, have been reported as unaffected (PMID: 34890546). However these parents weren't specifically assessed for cystic kidney disease. (I) 0211 - Canonical splice site variant without proven consequence on splicing (no functional evidence available). (SP) 0251 - This variant is heterozygous. (I) 0304 - Variant is present in gnomAD (v2) <0.01 for a condition (14 heterozygote, 0 homozygotes). (SP) 0505 - Abnormal splicing is predicted by in silico tools and affected nucleotide is highly conserved. (SP) 0705 - No comparable splice site variants have previous evidence for pathogenicity. (I) 0801 - This variant has strong previous evidence of pathogenicity in unrelated individuals. This variant has been classified as pathogenic by several clinical laboratories in ClinVar and observed as compound heterozygous in several individuals with autosomal recessive retinitis pigemntosa, Jeune syndrome or Mainzer-Saldino syndrome (PMIDs: 22503633, 26968735, 23418020). This variant has also been observed as heterozygous in multiple individuals affected with autosomal dominant cystic kidney disease (PMID: 34890546). (SP) 1007 - No published functional evidence has been identified for this variant. (I) 1208 - Inheritance information for this variant is not currently available in this individual.
