Genes affected
CLN3 (HGNC:2074): (CLN3 lysosomal/endosomal transmembrane protein, battenin) This gene encodes a protein that is involved in lysosomal function. Mutations in this, as well as other neuronal ceroid-lipofuscinosis (CLN) genes, cause neurodegenerative diseases commonly known as Batten disease or collectively known as neuronal ceroid lipofuscinoses (NCLs). Many alternatively spliced transcript variants have been found for this gene. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]

ACMG classification

Classification made for transcript

Verdict is Pathogenic. Variant got 12 ACMG points.

PVS1
Splicing +-2 bp (donor or acceptor) variant, product NOT destroyed by NMD, known LOF gene, truncates exone, which is 0.04176158 fraction of the gene. Cryptic splice site detected, with MaxEntScore 3.5, offset of -42, new splice context is: ctgGTattt. Cryptic site results in inframe change. If cryptic site found is not functional and variant results in exon loss, it results in frameshift change.

Neuronal ceroid lipofuscinosis Pathogenic:2
Likely pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingWomen's Health and Genetics/Laboratory Corporation of America, LabCorpDec 17, 2021Variant summary: CLN3 c.954_962+18del27 is located in a canonical splice-site and is predicted to affect mRNA splicing resulting in a significantly altered protein due to either exon skipping, shortening, or inclusion of intronic material. Several computational tools predict a significant impact on normal splicing: Four predict the variant abolishes a canonical 5' splicing donor site. However, these predictions have yet to be confirmed by functional studies. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 8e-06 in 248612 control chromosomes (gnomAD). c.954_962+18del27 has been reported in the literature in individuals affected with Juvenile Neuronal Ceroid-Lipofuscinosis (Juvenile Batten Disease) (examples: Kwon_2011 and Pronicka_2016). These data indicate that the variant may be associated with disease. To our knowledge, no experimental evidence demonstrating an impact on protein function has been reported. One clinical diagnostic laboratory has submitted clinical-significance assessments for this variant to ClinVar after 2014 and classified the variant as pathogenic. Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as likely pathogenic. -
Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingLabcorp Genetics (formerly Invitae), LabcorpDec 23, 2023This variant results in the deletion of part of exon 13 (c.954_962+18del) of the CLN3 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 CLN3 are known to be pathogenic (PMID: 9311735, 28542676). This variant is present in population databases (rs386833741, gnomAD 0.002%). This variant has been observed in individuals with CLN3-related conditions (PMID: 21990111). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 56293). For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. -

Inborn genetic diseases Pathogenic:1
Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingAmbry GeneticsFeb 12, 2020The c.954_962+18del27 pathogenic mutation results from a deletion of 27 nucleotides spanning across the splice donor site after coding exon 12 in the CLN3 gene. This mutation was detected in an individual with a diagnosis of Batten disease who had another pathogenic mutation on the other chromosome. In addition, this mutation was detected in three individuals with neuronal ceroid lipofuscinosis, two of whom had a second pathogenic mutation (the phase is unknown) (Kousi M et al. Hum. Mutat., 2012 Jan;33:42-63). Using the BDGP and ESEfinder splice site prediction tools, this alteration is predicted to abolish the native splice donor site; however, direct evidence is unavailable. Alterations that disrupt the canonical splice site are expected to cause aberrant splicing, resulting in an abnormal protein or a transcript that is subject to nonsense-mediated mRNA decay. As such, this alteration is classified as a disease-causing mutation. -
