Variant summary

Our verdict is Likely pathogenic. The variant received 9 ACMG points: 9P and 0B. PM1 PM2 PM5 PP2 PP3_Moderate

The NM_000314.8(PTEN):​c.737C>G​(p.Pro246Arg) variant causes a missense change involving the alteration of a conserved nucleotide. The variant was absent in control chromosomes in GnomAD project. In-silico tool predicts a pathogenic outcome for this variant. Variant has been reported in ClinVar as Uncertain significance (★). Another variant affecting the same amino acid position, but resulting in a different missense (i.e. P246L) has been classified as Pathogenic.

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]

ACMG classification

Our verdict: Likely_pathogenic. The variant received 9 ACMG points.

• PM1: In a hotspot region, there are 15 aminoacids with missense pathogenic changes in the window of +-8 aminoacids around while only 1 benign, 27 uncertain in NM_000314.8
• PM2: Very rare variant in population databases, with high coverage
• PM5: Other missense variant is known to change same aminoacid residue: Variant chr10-87957955-C-T is described in ClinVar as Pathogenic. ClinVar VariationId is 142269.Status of the report is reviewed_by_expert_panel, 3 stars.
• PP2: Missense variant in the PTEN gene, where missense mutations are typically associated with disease (based on misZ statistic). The gene has 209 curated pathogenic missense variants (we use a threshold of 10). The gene has 22 curated benign missense variants. Gene score misZ: 3.4883 (above the threshold of 3.09). Trascript score misZ: 4.1129 (above the threshold of 3.09). GenCC associations: The gene is linked to leiomyosarcoma, renal cell carcinoma, Cowden syndrome 1, macrocephaly-autism syndrome, glioma susceptibility 2, PTEN hamartoma tumor syndrome, Cowden disease, Bannayan-Riley-Ruvalcaba syndrome, Proteus-like syndrome, Lhermitte-Duclos disease, activated PI3K-delta syndrome.
• PP3: MetaRNN computational evidence supports a deleterious effect, 0.865

The p.P246R variant (also known as c.737C>G), located in coding exon 7 of the PTEN gene, results from a C to G substitution at nucleotide position 737. The proline at codon 246 is replaced by arginine, an amino acid with dissimilar properties. This variant demonstrated low intracellular protein abundance in a massively parallel functional assay (Matreyek KA et al. Nat Genet, 2018 Jun;50:874-882). In a massively parallel functional assay using a humanized yeast model, lipid phosphatase activity for this variant was functionally neutral (Mighell TL et al. Am J Hum Genet, 2018 May;102:943-955). This amino acid position is highly conserved in available vertebrate species. In addition, this alteration is predicted to be deleterious by in silico analysis. Since supporting evidence is limited at this time, the clinical significance of this alteration remains unclear. -
