Neuronal ceroid lipofuscinosis 2 Pathogenic:2
The variant is not observed in the gnomAD v2.1.1 dataset. Predicted Consequence/Location: Canonical splice site: predicted to alter splicing and result in a loss or disruption of normal protein function. The predicted truncated protein may be shortened by less than 10%. The variant has been reported to be in trans with a pathogenic variant as either compound heterozygous or homozygous in at least one similarly affected unrelated individual (PMID: 26032578).The variant has been reported to be associated with TPP1 related disorder (ClinVar ID: VCV000558183 /PMID: 26032578). Therefore, this variant is classified as Likely pathogenic according to the recommendation of ACMG/AMP guideline. -

not provided Pathogenic:1
For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. This variant disrupts a region of the TPP1 protein in which other variant(s) (p.Trp542*) have been determined to be pathogenic (PMID: 31283065; Invitae). This suggests that this is a clinically significant region of the protein, and that variants that disrupt it are likely to be disease-causing. Variants that disrupt the consensus splice site are a relatively common cause of aberrant splicing (PMID: 17576681, 9536098). Algorithms developed to predict the effect of sequence changes on RNA splicing suggest that this variant may disrupt the consensus splice site. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 558183). Disruption of this splice site has been observed in individual(s) with neuronal ceroid lipofuscinosis (PMID: 26032578). In at least one individual the data is consistent with being in trans (on the opposite chromosome) from a pathogenic variant. This variant is not present in population databases (gnomAD no frequency). This sequence change affects a donor splice site in intron 12 of the TPP1 gene. While this variant is not anticipated to result in nonsense mediated decay, it likely alters RNA splicing and results in a disrupted protein product. -
