Genes affected
MTOR (HGNC:3942): (mechanistic target of rapamycin kinase) The protein encoded by this gene belongs to a family of phosphatidylinositol kinase-related kinases. These kinases mediate cellular responses to stresses such as DNA damage and nutrient deprivation. This kinase is a component of two distinct complexes, mTORC1, which controls protein synthesis, cell growth and proliferation, and mTORC2, which is a regulator of the actin cytoskeleton, and promotes cell survival and cell cycle progression. This protein acts as the target for the cell-cycle arrest and immunosuppressive effects of the FKBP12-rapamycin complex. Inhibitors of mTOR are used in organ transplants as immunosuppressants, and are being evaluated for their therapeutic potential in SARS-CoV-2 infections. Mutations in this gene are associated with Smith-Kingsmore syndrome and somatic focal cortical dysplasia type II. The ANGPTL7 gene is located in an intron of this gene. [provided by RefSeq, Aug 2020]

The MTOR c.5395G>A (p.Glu1799Lys) variant is a missense variant that has been described in a heterozygous state in at least 12 individuals from seven unrelated families with features of Smith-Kingsmore syndrome (Baynam et al. 2015; Mroske et al. 2015; Mirzaa et al. 2016; Moosa et al. 2017; Gordo et al. 2018; Dobyns and Mirzaa 2019). An additional feature of multiple intestinal polyps was reported in one individual. In multiple cases, the variant was shown to occur de novo. In at least three families, the variant was found in multiple affected children despite not being detected in the parent's blood, suggesting gonadal mosaicism. The p.Glu1799Lys variant is not reported in the Genome Aggregation Database in a region of good sequence coverage, so the variant is presumed to be rare. Glu1799 is located in the FAT domain, which serves to regulate MTOR activity, and experiments in patient cells, human cell lines, and cultured rodent neurons have confirmed a gain-of-function effect of the p.Glu1799Lys variant (Grabiner et al. 2014; Baynam et al. 2015; Mirzaa et al. 2016). Based on the collective evidence, the p.Glu1799Lys variant is classified as pathogenic for Smith-Kingsmore syndrome. -

Variant summary: MTOR c.5395G>A (p.Glu1799Lys) results in a conservative amino acid change in the encoded protein sequence. Algorithms developed to predict the effect of missense changes on protein structure and function are either unavailable or do not agree on the potential impact of this missense change. The frequency data for this variant in gnomAD is considered unreliable, as metrics indicate poor data quality at this position. c.5395G>A has been observed in multiple individuals affected with Smith-Kingsmore Syndrome and majority of them are de novo for this variant (Mroske_2015, Mirzaa_2016, Tatton-Brown_2017). These data indicate that the variant is very likely to be associated with disease. At least one publication reports experimental evidence evaluating an impact on protein function and shows that this variant results in constitutive activation of MTOR protein (Mirzaa_2016). The following publications have been ascertained in the context of this evaluation (PMID: 27159400, 26542245, 28475857). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 217823). Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as pathogenic. -

The variant is not observed in the gnomAD v2.1.1 dataset. Predicted Consequence/Location: The variant is located in a mutational hot spot and/or well-established functional domain in which established pathogenic variants have been reported (PMID: 23322780, 27482884, 21210909). Missense changes are a common disease-causing mechanism. In silico tool predictions suggest damaging effect of the variant on gene or gene product [REVEL: 0.64 (>=0.6, sensitivity 0.68 and specificity 0.92)]. Same nucleotide change resulting in same amino acid change has been previously reported as pathogenic/likely pathogenic with strong evidence (ClinVar ID: VCV000217823 /PMID: 25851998 /3billion dataset). Therefore, this variant is classified as Pathogenic according to the recommendation of ACMG/AMP guideline. -

Functional studies indicate that E1799K results in an increase in mTOR pathway activity, suggesting a gain-of-function mechanism of disease (Baynam, et al., 2015); In silico analysis supports that this missense variant has a deleterious effect on protein structure/function; This variant is associated with the following publications: (PMID: 27739187, 27159400, 25851998, 26542245, 27513193, 27753196, 28892148, 28475857, 32581362, 33077954, 23636326, 24631838, 31441589, 31064327, 30764584, 30050716, 29296277, 27860216, 28007777, 24625776, 26432419) -

This sequence change replaces glutamic acid, which is acidic and polar, with lysine, which is basic and polar, at codon 1799 of the MTOR protein (p.Glu1799Lys). This variant is not present in population databases (gnomAD no frequency). This missense change has been observed in individual(s) with Smith–Kingsmore syndrome or MTOR-related megalencephaly and intellectual disability (PMID: 25851998, 26542245, 27159400, 27513193, 27753196, 28475857). In at least one individual the variant was observed to be de novo. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 217823). Advanced modeling of protein sequence and biophysical properties (such as structural, functional, and spatial information, amino acid conservation, physicochemical variation, residue mobility, and thermodynamic stability) performed at Invitae indicates that this missense variant is not expected to disrupt MTOR protein function with a negative predictive value of 95%. Experimental studies have shown that this missense change affects MTOR function (PMID: 24631838, 25851998). For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. -

The c.5395G>A (p.E1799K) alteration is located in exon 39 (coding exon 38) of the MTOR gene. This alteration results from a G to A substitution at nucleotide position 5395, causing the glutamic acid (E) at amino acid position 1799 to be replaced by a lysine (K). The MTOR c.5395G>A alteration was flagged as a low confidence call in the Genome Aggregation Database (gnomAD). This variant has been reported in multiple individuals with features consistent with Smith-Kingsmore syndrome; in at least one individual, it was determined to be de novo or the result of germline mosaicism (Baynam, 2015; Mroske, 2015; Moosa, 2017; Mirzaa, 2016; Poole, 2021; Ambry internal data). This amino acid position is highly conserved in available vertebrate species. The p.E1799 amino acid is located in the FAT domain of the MTOR protein, which binds to the kinase domain of the enzyme to negatively regulate MTOR activity (Yang, 2013). Structural modeling of the p.E1799K alteration suggests that this substitution destabilizes the FAT-kinase environment, leading to MTOR hyperactivation (Mroske, 2015). Functional analysis demonstrated that the p.E1799K alteration, which was originally identified in somatic tumor samples, results in activation of MTOR. Expression of MTOR with the p.E1799K alteration in HEK293 cells results in increased MTOR kinase activity towards AKT and 4E-Binding Protein 1, suggesting a gain-of-function effect (Grabiner, 2014). This alteration is predicted to be deleterious by in silico analysis. Based on the available evidence, this alteration is classified as pathogenic. -
