Pathogenic for CDKL5 disorder. Applied ACMG criteria (verbatim):

PVS1 PM2_Supporting PM6_Strong PS4

Curation rationale (ClinGen, verbatim)

The p.Glu416Valfs variant in CDKL5 is predicted to cause a premature stop codon that leads to a truncated or absent protein in a gene in which loss-of-function is an established mechanism. There is significant evidence that loss of this region of the gene is pathogenic (PVS1). The p.Glu416Valfs variant has been observed in at least 5 individuals with CDKL5 disease (PMID: 27779742, 27864847, 23064044, ClinVar Variation ID 189554) (PS4). The p.XX variant in GENE has been reported in at least 2 de novo occurrences (biological parentage unconfirmed) in individuals with CDKL5 disorder (PMID XX) (PMID 27779742, 27864847) (PM6_strong). This variant is absent from gnomAD (PM2_supporting). In summary, this variant meets criteria to be classified as pathogenic for CDKL5-associated disorder based on the ACMG/AMP criteria applied (PVS1, PS4, PM6_strong, PM2_supporting).

Population frequency

dbSNP / gnomAD

No gnomAD frequency available for this variant. This is missing data, not an absence: the variant may or may not be present in gnomAD. Rarity (ACMG PM2) and BA1/BS1 cannot be assessed for it.
