Variant summary
Our verdict is Pathogenic. The variant received 19 ACMG points: 19P and 0B. PVS1PM2PP3PP5_Very_Strong
The NM_001367721.1(CASK):c.2041C>T(p.Arg681*) variant causes a stop gained, splice region change involving the alteration of a conserved nucleotide. The variant was absent in control chromosomes in GnomAD project. In-silico tool predicts a pathogenic outcome for this variant. 2/3 splice prediction tools predicting alterations to normal splicing. Variant has been reported in ClinVar as Pathogenic (★★). Synonymous variant affecting the same amino acid position (i.e. R681R) has been classified as Likely benign. Variant results in nonsense mediated mRNA decay.

Variant summary: CASK c.2041C>T (p.Arg681X) results in a premature termination codon, predicted to cause absence of the protein due to nonsense mediated decay, which are commonly known mechanisms for disease. The variant was absent in 182747 control chromosomes (gnomAD). c.2041C>T has been reported in the literature as a de novo occurrence in an individual affected with features of Syndromic X-Linked Intellectual Disability Najm Type (Murakami_2019). The following publication has been ascertained in the context of this evaluation (PMID: 31044082). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 158069). Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as pathogenic. -

not provided Pathogenic:1
The R681X pathogenic variant in the CASK gene has not been reported previously as a pathogenic variant nor as a benign variant, to our knowledge. This variant is predicted to cause loss of normal protein function either through protein truncation or nonsense-mediated mRNA decay. The R681X variant was not observed in approximately 6,500 individuals of European and African American ancestry in the NHLBI Exome Sequencing Project, indicating it is not a common benign variant in these populations. We interpret R681X as a pathogenic variant. -
