Genes affected

PTEN (HGNC:9588): (phosphatase and tensin homolog) This gene was identified as a tumor suppressor that is mutated in a large number of cancers at high frequency. The protein encoded by this gene is a phosphatidylinositol-3,4,5-trisphosphate 3-phosphatase. It contains a tensin like domain as well as a catalytic domain similar to that of the dual specificity protein tyrosine phosphatases. Unlike most of the protein tyrosine phosphatases, this protein preferentially dephosphorylates phosphoinositide substrates. It negatively regulates intracellular levels of phosphatidylinositol-3,4,5-trisphosphate in cells and functions as a tumor suppressor by negatively regulating AKT/PKB signaling pathway. The use of a non-canonical (CUG) upstream initiation site produces a longer isoform that initiates translation with a leucine, and is thought to be preferentially associated with the mitochondrial inner membrane. This longer isoform may help regulate energy metabolism in the mitochondria. A pseudogene of this gene is found on chromosome 9. Alternative splicing and the use of multiple translation start codons results in multiple transcript variants encoding different isoforms. [provided by RefSeq, Feb 2015]

The PTEN c.-765G>A variant is located in the 5' untranslated region. This variant (also referred to as -764A-G, c.-764G>A, and -764G/A using alternative nomenclature) occurs in the pre-coding region of the gene. This variant has been identified in individuals affected with Cowden syndrome who also had breast or endometrial cancer (Zhou et al. 2003. PubMed ID: 12844284; Teresi et al. 2007. PubMed ID: 17847000). In a reporter assay, this variant demonstrated ~50% decrease in luciferase activity compared to wild type; however, luciferase mRNA expression was equal to that of wild type in cells transfected with the wild type construct (Teresi et al. 2007. PubMed ID: 17847000). This variant has not been reported in a large population database (http://gnomad.broadinstitute.org), indicating this variant is rare. In ClinVar, this variant is interpreted as uncertain by an expert panel (https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/clinvar/variation/7844/). At this time, the clinical significance of this variant is uncertain due to the absence of conclusive functional and genetic evidence. -

The c.-765G>A variant is located in the 5' untranslated region (5’UTR) of the PTEN gene. This variant results from a G to A substitution 765 nucleotides upstream from the first translated codon. In one study, this variant was described in an individual with breast cancer (Zhou XP et al. Am J Hum Genet. 2003;73(2):404-411). In another study, this variant was described in a patient with benign breast neoplasia and endometrial cancer (Teresi RE et al. Am. J. Hum. Genet. 2007 Oct;81(4):756-67). This same study demonstrates that PTEN transcription efficiency and mRNA stability were not compromised, although the c.-765G>A alteration did result in a decrease of luciferase activity as measured by an in vitro reporter assay. In addition, in silico analysis predicted that the mRNA secondary structure of the PTEN promoter was altered. Based on the above evidence, the authors hypothesized that the c.-765G>A variant would result in a significant decrease in protein expression. Of note, this variant is also known as -764G>A in published literature. In addition, this nucleotide position is highly conserved in available vertebrate species. Since supporting evidence for this variant is limited at this time, the clinical significance of this alteration is unclear. -
