Genes affected
TTC21B (HGNC:25660): (tetratricopeptide repeat domain 21B) This gene encodes a member of TTC21 family, containing several tetratricopeptide repeat (TPR) domains. This protein is localized to the cilium axoneme, and may play a role in retrograde intraflagellar transport in cilia. Mutations in this gene are associated with various ciliopathies, nephronophthisis 12, and asphyxiating thoracic dystrophy 4. [provided by RefSeq, Oct 2011]

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 0.027841052 fraction of the gene. Cryptic splice site detected, with MaxEntScore 7.2, offset of -31, new splice context is: tgactttttattctatacAGtgt. Cryptic site results in frameshift change. If cryptic site found is not functional and variant results in exon loss, it results in inframe change.
PM2
Very rare variant in population databases, with high coverage;
PP3
Splicing scoreres supports a deletorius effect: Scorers claiming Pathogenic: dbscSNV1_ADA, dbscSNV1_RF, max_spliceai. No scorers claiming Uncertain. No scorers claiming Benign.
PP5
Variant 2-165899882-T-C is Pathogenic according to our data. Variant chr2-165899882-T-C is described in ClinVar as [Likely_pathogenic]. Clinvar id is 30937.Status of the report is criteria_provided_multiple_submitters_no_conflicts, 2 stars.

Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingInvitaeAug 07, 2023ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 30937). For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. Algorithms developed to predict the effect of sequence changes on RNA splicing suggest that this variant may disrupt the consensus splice site. Disruption of this splice site has been observed in individual(s) with nephronophthisis (PMID: 21258341). In at least one individual the data is consistent with being in trans (on the opposite chromosome) from a pathogenic variant. This variant is present in population databases (rs766132877, gnomAD 0.005%). This sequence change affects an acceptor splice site in intron 20 of the TTC21B 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 TTC21B are known to be pathogenic (PMID: 18327258, 21068128, 21258341, 23559409, 24876116, 25492405, 27491411, 29068549). -
