Variant summary
Our verdict is Pathogenic. Variant got 18 ACMG points: 18P and 0B. PM1PM2PM5PP3_StrongPP5_Very_Strong
The NM_001042432.2(CLN3):c.1000C>T(p.Arg334Cys) variant causes a missense change involving the alteration of a conserved nucleotide. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 0.00000411 in 1,461,512 control chromosomes in the GnomAD database, with no homozygous occurrence. In-silico tool predicts a pathogenic outcome for this variant. 12/21 in silico tools predict a damaging outcome for this variant. Variant has been reported in ClinVar as Likely pathogenic (★★). Another variant affecting the same amino acid position, but resulting in a different missense (i.e. R334H) has been classified as Likely pathogenic.

Variant summary: CLN3 c.1000C>T (p.Arg334Cys) results in a non-conservative amino acid change in the encoded protein sequence. Five of five in-silico tools predict a damaging effect of the variant on protein function. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 4e-06 in 249336 control chromosomes (gnomAD). c.1000C>T has been reported in the literature in individuals affected with clinical features of neuronal ceroid-lipofuscinosis (Batten Disease; example: Pohl_2007, Smirnov_2021, Munroe_1997). These data indicate that the variant is likely to be associated with disease. A different variant affecting the same codon has been classified as pathogenic by our lab (c.1001G>A, p.Arg334His) supporting the critical relevance of codon 334 to CLN3 protein function. In functional studies, the variant was found to affect normal protein function (Haines_2009). The following publications have been ascertained in the context of this evaluation (PMID: 9311735, 17868323, 19132115, 33507216). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 56243). Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as pathogenic. -
This sequence change replaces arginine, which is basic and polar, with cysteine, which is neutral and slightly polar, at codon 334 of the CLN3 protein (p.Arg334Cys). The frequency data for this variant in the population databases is considered unreliable, as metrics indicate poor data quality at this position in the gnomAD database. This missense change has been observed in individual(s) with isolated retinitis pigmentosa and/or neuronal ceroid lipofuscinosis (PMID: 9311735, 17475770, 21990111, 25976102, 33507216, 33921607). In at least one individual the data is consistent with being in trans (on the opposite chromosome) from a pathogenic variant. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 56243). Advanced modeling of protein sequence and biophysical properties (such as structural, functional, and spatial information, amino acid conservation, physicochemical variation, residue mobility, and thermodynamic stability) has been performed at Invitae for this missense variant, however the output from this modeling did not meet the statistical confidence thresholds required to predict the impact of this variant on CLN3 protein function. Experimental studies have shown that this missense change affects CLN3 function (PMID: 10924275, 11589014, 17475770, 19132115). This variant disrupts the p.Arg334 amino acid residue in CLN3. Other variant(s) that disrupt this residue have been determined to be pathogenic (PMID: 9311735, 20187884, 21499717, 21990111, 23539563). This suggests that this residue is clinically significant, and that variants that disrupt this residue are likely to be disease-causing. For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. -
