Genes affected
CTSK (HGNC:2536): (cathepsin K) The protein encoded by this gene is a lysosomal cysteine proteinase involved in bone remodeling and resorption. This protein, which is a member of the peptidase C1 protein family, is predominantly expressed in osteoclasts. However, the encoded protein is also expressed in a significant fraction of human breast cancers, where it could contribute to tumor invasiveness. Mutations in this gene are the cause of pycnodysostosis, an autosomal recessive disease characterized by osteosclerosis and short stature. [provided by RefSeq, Apr 2013]

Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingNeuberg Centre For Genomic Medicine, NCGM-The stop gained p.R241* in CTSK (NM_000396.4) has been observed in individuals affected with pycnodysostosis, and has been shown to segregate with disease in a family (B D Gelb et al; M R Johnson). It is expected to result in an absent or disrupted protein product. The variant has been reported to ClinVar as Pathogenic/Likely Pathogenic. This variant is predicted to cause loss of normal protein function through protein truncation. For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. -

Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingInvitaeDec 30, 2023This sequence change creates a premature translational stop signal (p.Arg241*) in the CTSK gene. It is expected to result in an absent or disrupted protein product. Loss-of-function variants in CTSK are known to be pathogenic (PMID: 12125807, 21569238). This variant is present in population databases (rs74315303, gnomAD 0.01%). This premature translational stop signal has been observed in individuals with pycnodysostosis (PMID: 8703060, 8938428). It has also been observed to segregate with disease in related individuals. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 8422). For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. -
