Genes affected
CLN3 (HGNC:2074): (CLN3 lysosomal/endosomal transmembrane protein, battenin) This gene encodes a protein that is involved in lysosomal function. Mutations in this, as well as other neuronal ceroid-lipofuscinosis (CLN) genes, cause neurodegenerative diseases commonly known as Batten disease or collectively known as neuronal ceroid lipofuscinoses (NCLs). Many alternatively spliced transcript variants have been found for this gene. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]

Significance:Uncertain significance
Review Status:criteria provided, single submitter
Collection Method:clinical testing

A variant of uncertain significance has been identified in the CLN3 gene. The c.734_736delCAG variant has not been published as a pathogenic variant, nor has it been reported as a benign variant to our knowledge. The c.734_736delCAG variant was not observed with any significant frequency in approximately 6,500 individuals of European and African American ancestry in the NHLBI Exome Sequencing Project. The c.734_736delCAG variant results in an in-frame deletion of a single Alanine residue, denoted p.Ala245del. However, this deletion occurs at a position that is not conserved. To our knowledge, in-frame deletions have not been reported in the CLN3 gene in association with juvenile neuronal ceroid lipofuscinosis (Stenson et al., 2014). Therefore, based on the currently available information, it is unclear whether this variant is a pathogenic variant or a rare benign variant. -

Ambry Genetics
Significance:Uncertain significance
Review Status:criteria provided, single submitter
Collection Method:clinical testing

The c.734_736delCAG (p.A245del) alteration is located in exon 10 (coding exon 9) of the CLN3 gene. This alteration consists of an in-frame deletion of 3 nucleotides between nucleotide positions c.734 and c.736, resulting in the deletion of 1 residue. Based on insufficient or conflicting evidence, the clinical significance of this alteration remains unclear. -

Neuronal ceroid lipofuscinosis Uncertain:1
Sep 01, 2022
Labcorp Genetics (formerly Invitae), Labcorp
Significance:Uncertain significance
Review Status:criteria provided, single submitter
Collection Method:clinical testing

This variant, c.734_736del, results in the deletion of 1 amino acid(s) of the CLN3 protein (p.Ala245del), but otherwise preserves the integrity of the reading frame. This variant is present in population databases (rs776966610, gnomAD 0.01%). This variant has been observed in individual(s) with clinical features of CLN3-related conditions (Invitae). In at least one individual the data is consistent with being in trans (on the opposite chromosome) from a pathogenic variant. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 205115). Experimental studies and prediction algorithms are not available or were not evaluated, and the functional significance of this variant is currently unknown. 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. -
