Genes affected
IQCB1 (HGNC:28949): (IQ motif containing B1) This gene encodes a nephrocystin protein that interacts with calmodulin and the retinitis pigmentosa GTPase regulator protein. The encoded protein has a central coiled-coil region and two calmodulin-binding IQ domains. It is localized to the primary cilia of renal epithelial cells and connecting cilia of photoreceptor cells. The protein is thought to play a role in ciliary function. Defects in this gene result in Senior-Loken syndrome type 5. Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants. A pseudogene of this gene is found on chromosome 6. [provided by RefSeq, Jan 2016]

Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitterresearchOcular Genomics Institute, Massachusetts Eye and EarApr 08, 2021The IQCB1 c.1518_1519del variant was identified in an individual with retinitis pigmentosa with a presumed recessive inheritance pattern. Through a review of available evidence we were able to apply the following criteria: PVS1, PM3, PP1. Based on this evidence we have classified this variant as Pathogenic. -
Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingUndiagnosed Diseases Network, NIHMay 23, 2017The paternally-inherited c.1518_1519delCA is a frameshift variant, which is predicted to result in loss of function in the IQCB1 gene where loss of function is a known mechanism of Senior-Loken syndrome 5, OMIM 609254. The c.1518_1519delCA variant was observed to be in trans with a c.1465C>T pathogenic variant based on segregation analysis in the family. Both varaints are also present in the patient's similarly affected sister. -
Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testing3billionJan 03, 2022Frameshift: predicted to result in a loss or disruption of normal protein function through protein truncation. Multiple pathogenic variants are reported in the predicted truncated region (PVS1_VS) The variant has been reported at least twice as pathogenic/likely pathogenic with clinical assertions and evidence for the classification (ClinVar ID: VCV000093469, PMID:15723066). It is observed at an extremely low frequency in the gnomAD v2.1.1 dataset (total allele frequency: 0.000085, PM2_M). Therefore, this variant is classified as pathogenic according to the recommendation of ACMG/AMP guideline. -

Nephronophthisis Pathogenic:1
Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingInvitaeJan 04, 2024This sequence change creates a premature translational stop signal (p.His506Glnfs*13) in the IQCB1 gene. While this is not anticipated to result in nonsense mediated decay, it is expected to disrupt the last 93 amino acid(s) of the IQCB1 protein. This variant is present in population databases (rs398123538, gnomAD 0.02%). This premature translational stop signal has been observed in individuals with Senior-Loken syndrome or Leber congenital amaurosis (PMID: 15723066, 20881296). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 93469). For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. -
