Description

Variant summary: TBK1 c.349C>T (p.Arg117X) 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 not been classified as pathogenic by our laboratory but have been reported with an associated phenotype of Amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) in the HGMD database. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 8.3e-06 in 239886 control chromosomes. c.349C>T has been reported in the literature in individuals affected with Frontotemporal Dementia And/or Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis (example, Cirulli_2015, Pottier_2015). At-least one of these reported cases reported a co-occurrence with another pathogenic variant(s) (OPTN c.1243-740_1612+1292delins25, p.Gly538Glufs27), suggesting an oligogenic disease mechanism (example, Pottier_2015). To our knowledge, no experimental evidence demonstrating an impact on protein function has been reported. No clinical diagnostic laboratories have submitted clinical-significance assessments for this variant to ClinVar after 2014. Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as likely pathogenic.

Description

For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. 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: 1339689). This premature translational stop signal has been observed in individual(s) with frontotemporal dementia (PMID: 25943890, 28008748). The frequency data for this variant in the population databases is considered unreliable, as metrics indicate poor data quality at this position in the gnomAD database. This sequence change creates a premature translational stop signal (p.Arg117*) in the TBK1 gene. It is expected to result in an absent or disrupted protein product. Loss-of-function variants in TBK1 are known to be pathogenic (PMID: 25803835, 26476236, 26581300).
