Genes affected
CEP290 (HGNC:29021): (centrosomal protein 290) This gene encodes a protein with 13 putative coiled-coil domains, a region with homology to SMC chromosome segregation ATPases, six KID motifs, three tropomyosin homology domains and an ATP/GTP binding site motif A. The protein is localized to the centrosome and cilia and has sites for N-glycosylation, tyrosine sulfation, phosphorylation, N-myristoylation, and amidation. Mutations in this gene have been associated with Joubert syndrome and nephronophthisis and the presence of antibodies against this protein is associated with several forms of cancer.

ACMG classification

Classification made for transcript

Verdict is Pathogenic. Variant got 16 ACMG points.

PVS1
Splicing variant, NOT destroyed by nmd, known LOF gene, truncates exone, which is 0.018010752 fraction of the gene. Cryptic splice site detected, with MaxEntScore 7.1, offset of 40, new splice context is: ttgGTatgt. Cryptic site results in frameshift change. If cryptic site found is not functional and variant results in exon loss, it results in inframe change.

Likely pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingGenetic Services Laboratory, University of ChicagoJul 20, 2021DNA sequence analysis of the CEP290 gene demonstrated a sequence change in the canonical splice donor site of intron 34, c.4437+1G>A. This sequence change is predicted to disrupt the canonical splice donor site, and affect normal splicing of exon 34. This c.4437+1G>A change does not appear to have been previously described in individuals with CEP290-related disorders. This sequence change has been described in the gnomAD database in the non-Finnish European subpopulation with a low frequency of 0.013% (dbSNP rs760915898). Collectively, this evidence suggests c.4437+1G>A is likely pathogenic, however, functional studies have not been performed to prove this conclusively. -

CEP290-related disorder Pathogenic:2
Likely pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingPreventionGenetics, part of Exact SciencesJan 30, 2024The CEP290 c.4437+1G>A variant is predicted to disrupt the GT donor site and interfere with normal splicing. This variant has been observed in a large dataset of worldwide populations used to evaluate the frequency or percentage of individuals carrying a disease-causing variant in genes associated with autosomal recessive inherited retinal diseases (IRDs) (Table S3, Hanany et al. 2020. PubMed ID: 31964843). This variant is reported in 0.013% of alleles in individuals of European (Non-Finnish) descent in gnomAD. Variants that disrupt the consensus splice donor site in CEP290 are expected to be pathogenic. This variant is interpreted as likely pathogenic. -

Likely pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingInvitaeJan 09, 2024This sequence change affects a donor splice site in intron 34 of the CEP290 gene. It is expected to disrupt RNA splicing. Variants that disrupt the donor or acceptor splice site typically lead to a loss of protein function (PMID: 16199547), and loss-of-function variants in CEP290 are known to be pathogenic (PMID: 16909394, 17345604, 20690115). This variant is present in population databases (rs760915898, gnomAD 0.01%). This variant has not been reported in the literature in individuals affected with CEP290-related conditions. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 285948). Algorithms developed to predict the effect of sequence changes on RNA splicing suggest that this variant may disrupt the consensus splice site. In summary, the currently available evidence indicates that the variant is pathogenic, but additional data are needed to prove that conclusively. Therefore, this variant has been classified as Likely Pathogenic. -
