Genes affected
PPT1 (HGNC:9325): (palmitoyl-protein thioesterase 1) The protein encoded by this gene is a small glycoprotein involved in the catabolism of lipid-modified proteins during lysosomal degradation. The encoded enzyme removes thioester-linked fatty acyl groups such as palmitate from cysteine residues. Defects in this gene are a cause of infantile neuronal ceroid lipofuscinosis 1 (CLN1, or INCL) and neuronal ceroid lipofuscinosis 4 (CLN4). Two transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been found for this gene.[provided by RefSeq, Dec 2008]

Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingInvitaeJan 29, 2024This sequence change creates a premature translational stop signal (p.Met57Asnfs*45) in the PPT1 gene. It is expected to result in an absent or disrupted protein product. Loss-of-function variants in PPT1 are known to be pathogenic (PMID: 10679943, 21990111). This variant is present in population databases (rs386833634, gnomAD 0.006%). This premature translational stop signal has been observed in individuals with infantile neuronal ceroid lipofuscinosis (PMID: 9571187, 10679943, 21990111). This variant is also known as 169 (A169i) and as c.162-163insA. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 56182). For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. -

Neuronal ceroid lipofuscinosis Pathogenic:2
Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingWomen's Health and Genetics/Laboratory Corporation of America, LabCorpDec 21, 2020Variant summary: PPT1 c.169dupA (p.Met57AsnfsX45) 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. Truncations downstream of this position have been classified as pathogenic by our laboratory. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 3.2e-05 in 251438 control chromosomes (gnomAD). c.169dupA has been reported in the literature in individuals affected with Neuronal Ceroid-Lipofuscinosis (Batten Disease) (Santorelli_1998, Waliany_2000, Levin_2014). These data indicate that the variant is likely to be associated with disease. Two publications report experimental evidence demonstrating an effect of the variant on the expression of other genes via whole transcriptome profiling (Tikka_2016, Pezzini_2017). Three ClinVar submitters (evaluation after 2014) cite the variant as pathogenic. Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as pathogenic. -
