Genes affected
CLN8 (HGNC:2079): (CLN8 transmembrane ER and ERGIC protein) This gene encodes a transmembrane protein belonging to a family of proteins containing TLC domains, which are postulated to function in lipid synthesis, transport, or sensing. The protein localizes to the endoplasmic reticulum (ER), and may recycle between the ER and ER-Golgi intermediate compartment. Mutations in this gene are associated with a disorder characterized by progressive epilepsy with cognitive disabilities (EPMR), which is a subtype of neuronal ceroid lipofuscinoses (NCL). Patients with mutations in this gene have altered levels of sphingolipid and phospholipids in the brain. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2017]

Neuronal ceroid lipofuscinosis Uncertain:1
Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingInvitaeSep 01, 2021This sequence change replaces phenylalanine with leucine at codon 32 of the CLN8 protein (p.Phe32Leu). The phenylalanine residue is highly conserved and there is a small physicochemical difference between phenylalanine and leucine. This variant is present in population databases (rs758068226, ExAC 0.01%). This variant has not been reported in the literature in individuals affected with CLN8-related conditions. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 241290). Algorithms developed to predict the effect of missense changes on protein structure and function are either unavailable or do not agree on the potential impact of this missense change (SIFT: "Deleterious"; PolyPhen-2: "Benign"; Align-GVGD: "Class C0"). In summary, the available evidence is currently insufficient to determine the role of this variant in disease. Therefore, it has been classified as a Variant of Uncertain Significance. -
