Genes affected
CEP290 (HGNC:29021): (centrosomal protein 290) This gene encodes a protein with 13 putative coiled-coil domains, a region with homology to SMC chromosome segregation ATPases, six KID motifs, three tropomyosin homology domains and an ATP/GTP binding site motif A. The protein is localized to the centrosome and cilia and has sites for N-glycosylation, tyrosine sulfation, phosphorylation, N-myristoylation, and amidation. Mutations in this gene have been associated with Joubert syndrome and nephronophthisis and the presence of antibodies against this protein is associated with several forms of cancer.

PreventionGenetics, part of Exact Sciences
Significance:Pathogenic
Review Status:no assertion criteria provided
Collection Method:clinical testing

The CEP290 c.384_387delTAGA variant is predicted to result in a frameshift and premature protein termination (p.Asp128Glufs*34). This variant has been reported in the compound heterozygous state to be causative for Leber congenital amaurosis (Perrault et al. 2007. PubMed ID: 17345604) and Meckel syndrome (Vora et al. 2020. PubMed ID: 31974414). This variant is reported in 0.010% of alleles in individuals of European (Non-Finnish) descent in gnomAD. Frameshift variants in CEP290 are expected to be pathogenic. This variant is interpreted as pathogenic. -

Collection Method:clinical testing

The CEP290 c.384_387delTAGA (p.Asp128GlufsTer34) variant causes a frameshift and results in a premature truncation of the protein. The p.Asp128GlufsTer34 variant has been reported in four studies in which it is found in a total of seven individuals, including two homozygotes and five compound heterozygotes (Baala et al. 2007; Perrault et al. 2007; Aguilar et al. 2012; Sheck et al. 2018). Five of the individuals presented with brain abnormalities, including Dandy-Walker malformation, occipital meningocele, or cerebellar vermis hypoplasia, and were diagnosed with Meckel syndrome or Joubert syndrome upon fetal autopsy, while one 5-month old individual was reported to have normal development and was diagnosed with Leber congeital amaurosis upon clinical exam. The p.Asp128GlufsTer34variant was absent from 96 controls (Perrault et al. 2007) and is reported at a frequency of 0.01304 in the European American population of the Exome Sequencing Project. However, this frequency is orders of magnitude higher than the highest frequency reported in the Exome Aggregation Consortium, where the p.Asp128GlufsTer34 variant is found at a frequency of 0.00009 in the European (non-Finnish) population. Based on the potential impact of frameshift variant and collective clinical evidence, the p.Asp128GlufsTer34 variant is classified as pathogenic for CEP290-related disorders. This variant was observed by ICSL as part of a predisposition screen in an ostensibly healthy population. -

Variant summary: CEP290 c.384_387delTAGA (p.Asp128GlufsX34) 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. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 5.6e-05 in 249068 control chromosomes. This frequency is not significantly higher than estimated for a pathogenic variant in CEP290 causing CEP290-Related Disorders. c.384_387delTAGA has been reported in the literature in the presumed compound heterozygous and compound heterozygous states in at least 2 individuals affected with Leber congenital amaurosis or Joubert/Meckel spectrum disease (example, Areblom_2023, Aguilar_2012). The following publications have been ascertained in the context of this evaluation (PMID: 37510321, 23027964). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 56738). Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as pathogenic. -

This sequence change creates a premature translational stop signal (p.Asp128Glufs*34) 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 (rs386834157, gnomAD 0.01%). This premature translational stop signal has been observed in individuals with Leber congenital amaurosis and Meckel syndrome (PMID: 17345604, 17564974, 21602930). It has also been observed to segregate with disease in related individuals. This variant is also known as 383_386delATAG. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 56738). For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. -

The c.384_387delTAGA (p.Asp128Glufs*34) frameshift variant in the CEP290 gene has been previously reported in one family affected with Leber Congenital Amaurosis and two families affected with Meckel Syndrome (Baala et al., 2007; Perrault et al., 2007). In two unrelated individuals, this variant was observed in trans with other pathogenic variants (Cys998Ter, c.180+2T>A) (Baala et al., 2007; Perrault et al., 2007). This frameshift variant is predicted truncate the protein product, and loss of function variants, including variants downstream of this one, have been reported as a common mechanism of disease. This variant is reported at low frequency in the population databases (Exome Sequencing Project = NA; 1000 Genomes = NA; and ExAC = 0.009%). Therefore, this collective evidence supports the classification of the c.384_387delTAGA (p.Asp128Glufs*34) as a Pathogenic variant for Joubert Syndrome and Related Diseases. We have confirmed this finding in our laboratory using Sanger sequencing. -
