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.

Joubert syndrome 5 Pathogenic:3
Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingNeuberg Centre For Genomic Medicine, NCGM-The frameshift variant c.2390del (p.Lys797SerfsTer2) in CEP290 gene has been observed in several individuals affected with CEP290-related conditions(Bryant L et.al.,2017). This variant has been reported to the ClinVar database as Pathogenic. The p.Lys797SerfsTer2 variant is novel (not in any individuals) in 1000 Genomes and allele frequency of 0.004931% is reported in gnomAD. This variant causes a frameshift starting with codon Lysine 797, changes this amino acid to Serine residue, and creates a premature Stop codon at position 2 of the new reading frame, denoted p.Lys797SerfsTer2. This variant is predicted to cause loss of normal protein function. Loss of function variants have been previously reported to be disease causing. For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. -

Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingLaboratory for Molecular Medicine, Mass General Brigham Personalized MedicineJan 29, 2024The p.Lys797SerfsX2 variant in CEP290 has been reported in at least 2 individuals with Leber congenital amaurosis: in 1 homozygote and 1 compound heterozygote with another disease-causing variant in CEP290 (Bryant 2018 PMID: 29343940, Hosono 2018 PMID: 29844330). It has also been identified in the heterozygous state in 1 individual with retinal disease. This variant has been reported by other clinical laboratories in ClinVar (Variation ID 438223) and has been identified in 0.01% (4/41328) of African/African American chromosomes by gnomAD (http://gnomad.broadinstitute.org, v3.1.2). This is consistent with the prevalence of the disease in the general population. This variant is predicted to cause a frameshift, which alters the protein’s amino acid sequence beginning at position 797 and leads to a premature termination codon 2 amino acids downstream. This alteration is then predicted to lead to a truncated or absent protein. Biallelic loss of function of the CEP290 gene is an established disease mechanism in autosomal recessive CEP290-related ciliopathy. In summary, this variant meets criteria to be classified as pathogenic for autosomal recessive CEP290-related ciliopathy. ACMG/AMP Criteria applied: PVS1, PM3, PM2_Supporting. -
CEP290-related condition Pathogenic:1
Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingPreventionGenetics, part of Exact SciencesFeb 23, 2024The CEP290 c.2390delA variant is predicted to result in a frameshift and premature protein termination (p.Lys797Serfs*2). This variant has been reported in homozygous and compound heterozygous states in patients with Leber congenital amaurosis (LCA) and other retinal degeneration disorders (Bryant et al. 2018. PubMed ID: 29343940; Hosono et al. 2018. PubMed ID: 29844330). This variant is reported in 0.013% of alleles in individuals of African descent in gnomAD. Frameshift variants in CEP290 are expected to be pathogenic. This variant is interpreted as pathogenic. -

Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingInvitaeNov 14, 2023This sequence change creates a premature translational stop signal (p.Lys797Serfs*2) in the CEP290 gene. It is expected to result in an absent or disrupted protein product. Loss-of-function variants in CEP290 are known to be pathogenic (PMID: 16909394, 17345604, 20690115). This variant is present in population databases (rs781670422, gnomAD 0.01%). This premature translational stop signal has been observed in individual(s) with CEP290-related conditions (PMID: 29343940, 29844330). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 438223). Algorithms developed to predict the effect of sequence changes on RNA splicing suggest that this variant may disrupt the consensus splice site. For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. -
