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]

Submissions by phenotype

Cowden syndrome 1 Pathogenic:1

Sep 26, 2023

Myriad Genetics, Inc.

Significance: Pathogenic

Review Status: criteria provided, single submitter

Collection Method: clinical testing

This variant is considered pathogenic. This variant creates a termination codon and is predicted to result in premature protein truncation. -

PTEN hamartoma tumor syndrome Pathogenic:1

Feb 05, 2024

Labcorp Genetics (formerly Invitae), Labcorp

Significance: Pathogenic

Review Status: criteria provided, single submitter

Collection Method: clinical testing

This sequence change creates a premature translational stop signal (p.Gln87*) in the PTEN gene. It is expected to result in an absent or disrupted protein product. Loss-of-function variants in PTEN are known to be pathogenic (PMID: 9467011, 21194675). This variant is not present in population databases (gnomAD no frequency). This premature translational stop signal has been observed in individual(s) with Cowden syndrome (PMID: 9467011). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 468678). For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. -

Significance: Pathogenic

Review Status: criteria provided, single submitter

Collection Method: clinical testing

The p.Q87* pathogenic mutation (also known as c.259C>T), located in coding exon 5 of the PTEN gene, results from a C to T substitution at nucleotide position 259. This changes the amino acid from a glutamine to a stop codon within coding exon 5. This mutation was reported in one family with a clinical diagnosis of Cowden syndrome, including benign skin, breast, and thyroid features, with no macrocephaly or CNS involvement (Marsh DJ et al. Hum Mol Genet, 1998 Mar;7:507-15). This variant is considered to be rare based on population cohorts in the Genome Aggregation Database (gnomAD). This alteration is expected to result in loss of function by premature protein truncation or nonsense-mediated mRNA decay. As such, this alteration is interpreted as a disease-causing mutation. -
