Variant summary

Our verdict is Pathogenic. The variant received 18 ACMG points: 18P and 0B. PVS1_StrongPS3PM2PP5_Very_Strong

The NM_000100.4(CSTB):​c.202C>T​(p.Arg68*) variant causes a stop gained change involving the alteration of a non-conserved nucleotide. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 0.0000465 in 1,614,088 control chromosomes in the GnomAD database, with no homozygous occurrence. In-silico tool predicts a pathogenic outcome for this variant. Variant has been reported in ClinVar as Pathogenic (★★). ClinVar reports functional evidence for this variant: "SCV000436264: Functional analyses demonstrated that the variant resulted in reduced cell viability by 26% compared to wild-type in transfected CHO-K1 cells (Ceru et al. 2010). Additionally, the p.Arg68Ter variant protein did not localize to the nucleus. The variant produced an unfolded protein leading to protein aggregation which resulted in perinuclear aggregates that were more pronounced than wild type (Rabzelj et al. 2005" and additional evidence is available in ClinVar.

Genes affected
CSTB (HGNC:2482): (cystatin B) The cystatin superfamily encompasses proteins that contain multiple cystatin-like sequences. Some of the members are active cysteine protease inhibitors, while others have lost or perhaps never acquired this inhibitory activity. There are three inhibitory families in the superfamily, including the type 1 cystatins (stefins), type 2 cystatins and kininogens. This gene encodes a stefin that functions as an intracellular thiol protease inhibitor. The protein is able to form a dimer stabilized by noncovalent forces, inhibiting papain and cathepsins l, h and b. The protein is thought to play a role in protecting against the proteases leaking from lysosomes. Evidence indicates that mutations in this gene are responsible for the primary defects in patients with progressive myoclonic epilepsy (EPM1). One type of mutation responsible for EPM1 is the expansion in the promoter region of this gene of a CCCCGCCCCGCG repeat from 2-3 copies to 30-78 copies. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2016]

ACMG classification

Classification was made for transcript

Our verdict: Pathogenic. The variant received 18 ACMG points.

PVS1
Loss of function variant, product does not undergo nonsense mediated mRNA decay. Variant is located in the 3'-most exon, not predicted to undergo nonsense mediated mRNA decay. There are 6 pathogenic variants in the truncated region.
PS3
PS3 evidence extracted from ClinVar submissions: SCV000436264: Functional analyses demonstrated that the variant resulted in reduced cell viability by 26% compared to wild-type in transfected CHO-K1 cells (Ceru et al. 2010). Additionally, the p.Arg68Ter variant protein did not localize to the nucleus. The variant produced an unfolded protein leading to protein aggregation which resulted in perinuclear aggregates that were more pronounced than wild type (Rabzelj et al. 2005; Ceru et al. 2010; Polajnar et al. 2012).; SCV005045045: Functional studies show protein aggregation in the perinuclear region and reduced cell viability compared to wild type, indicating that this variant impacts protein function (Ceru S et al., PMID: 20078424; Rabzelj S et al., PMID: 16155205).; SCV001587897: Experimental studies have shown that this premature translational stop signal affects CSTB function (PMID: 15483648).; SCV002771348: Studies show this variant leads to the formation of protein aggregates (PMID: 17920138, 20078424)
PM2
Very rare variant in population databases, with high coverage;
PP5
Variant 21-43774297-G-A is Pathogenic according to our data. Variant chr21-43774297-G-A is described in ClinVar as Pathogenic. ClinVar VariationId is 8396.Status of the report is criteria_provided_multiple_submitters_no_conflicts, 2 stars.
