Genes affected

CTNS (HGNC:2518): (cystinosin, lysosomal cystine transporter) This gene encodes a seven-transmembrane domain protein that functions to transport cystine out of lysosomes. Its activity is driven by the H+ electrochemical gradient of the lysosomal membrane. Mutations in this gene cause cystinosis, a lysosomal storage disorder. Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2009]

ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 551289). This sequence change creates a premature translational stop signal (p.Trp297*) in the CTNS gene. It is expected to result in an absent or disrupted protein product. Loss-of-function variants in CTNS are known to be pathogenic (PMID: 9537412, 27102039). This variant is not present in population databases (gnomAD no frequency). This premature translational stop signal has been observed in individual(s) with cystinosis (PMID: 12825071, 26565940). In at least one individual the data is consistent with being in trans (on the opposite chromosome) from a pathogenic variant. For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. -
