Description

Variant summary: CTSA c.112delC/p.Leu38SerfsX54 (also known as delC118) results in a premature termination codon, predicted to cause a truncation of the encoded protein or absence of the protein due to nonsense mediated decay, which are commonly known mechanisms for disease. Truncations downstream of this position have been classified as pathogenic by our laboratory. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 4e-06 in 247276 control chromosomes (gnomAD). c.112delC has been reported in literature at least in one compound heterozygous individual affected with Galactosialidosis (Zhou_1996). These data do not allow any conclusion about variant significance. To our knowledge, no experimental evidence demonstrating an impact on protein function has been reported. One clinical diagnostic laboratory has submitted clinical-significance assessments for this variant to ClinVar after 2014 without evidence for independent evaluation and classified the variant as pathogenic. Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as likely pathogenic.

Description

For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 981068). This variant is also known as ΔC118. This premature translational stop signal has been observed in individual(s) with galactosialidosis (PMID: 8968752). This variant is present in population databases (no rsID available, gnomAD 0.0009%). This sequence change creates a premature translational stop signal (p.Leu56Serfs*54) in the CTSA gene. It is expected to result in an absent or disrupted protein product. Loss-of-function variants in CTSA are known to be pathogenic (PMID: 15110321, 23915561).
