Variant summary
Our verdict is Pathogenic. Variant got 21 ACMG points: 21P and 0B. PS1PM2PM5PP2PP3_StrongPP5_Very_Strong
The NM_001370259.2(MEN1):c.1306T>A(p.Trp436Arg) variant causes a missense change. 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 Likely pathogenic (★★). Another nucleotide change resulting in the same amino acid substitution has been previously reported as Pathogenic in Lovd. Another variant affecting the same amino acid position, but resulting in a different missense (i.e. W436C) has been classified as Pathogenic.

Multiple endocrine neoplasia, type 1 Pathogenic:3

For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. A different variant (c.1306T>C) giving rise to the same protein effect observed here (p.Trp436Arg) has been reported in individuals affected with multiple endocrine neoplasia type 1 (PMID: 9103196, 15714081), indicating that this residue may be critical for protein function. The p.Trp436Arg substitution has been shown to reduce the expression of menin protein in vitro (PMID: 21819486). In addition, it interferes with the interaction between menin and AKT1 kinase thereby disrupts ATK1-mediated anti-apoptosis effect in endocrine cells (PMID: 21127195) This variant has been reported in an individual affected with multiple endocrine neoplasia type 1 (Invitae). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 16686). This variant is not present in population databases (ExAC no frequency). This sequence change replaces tryptophan with arginine at codon 436 of the MEN1 protein (p.Trp436Arg). The tryptophan residue is highly conserved and there is a moderate physicochemical difference between tryptophan and arginine. -
This variant is considered likely pathogenic. This variant has been reported in multiple individuals with clinical features of gene-specific disease [PMID: 9540988, 9103196, 15714081, 9498491]. Functional studies indicate this variant impacts protein function [PMID: 21127195, 21819486]. This variant is expected to disrupt protein structure [Myriad internal data]. -
not provided Pathogenic:1
The W436R variant has previously been reported in at least one individual undergoing genetic testing of the MEN1 gene at an outside clinical laboratory (Klein et al., 2005). Functional studies have shown that the W436R mutant protein is not stable and is rapidly degraded by the ubiquitin-proteasome pathway (Canaff et al., 2012). This variant is not observed in large population cohorts (Lek et al., 2016). The XW436R variant is a non-conservative amino acid substitution, which is likely to impact secondary protein structure as these residues differ in polarity, charge, size and/or other properties. In-silico analyses, including protein predictors and evolutionary conservation, support a deleterious effect. An alternate nucleotide change resulting in the same amino acid change (c.1306T>C) has been reported in association with multiple endocrine neoplasia type 1, supporting the functional importance of this region of the protein (Agarwal et al., 1997; Chandrasekharappa et al., 1997). Based on the currently available information, we consider W436R to be pathogenic. -
Hereditary cancer-predisposing syndrome Pathogenic:1
The p.W436R pathogenic mutation (also known as c.1306T>A), located in coding exon 8 of the MEN1 gene, results from a T to A substitution at nucleotide position 1306. The tryptophan at codon 436 is replaced by arginine, an amino acid with dissimilar properties. This variant has been observed in multiple individuals with a personal and/or family history that is consistent with MEN1-associated disease (Ambry internal data). In one study, the p.W436R variant failed to interact with ATK1 and was unable to suppress AKT1 activity (Wang Y et al. Cancer Res, 2011 Jan;71:371-82). Based on internal structural analysis, this variant is anticipated to result in a decrease in structural stability (Ambry internal data). Another variant resulting in the same amino acid substitution, p.W436R (c.1306T>C), has been described in patients with MEN1-associated disease (Chandrasekharappa SC et al. Science.1997. 276(5311):404-7) and was shown to induce a high rate of protein degradation and roughly 20% stability when compared to wild types (Shimazu et al. Cancer Science. 2011. Vol 102, No 11, 2097-2102). This variant is considered to be rare based on population cohorts in the Genome Aggregation Database (gnomAD). This amino acid position is highly conserved in available vertebrate species. In addition, this alteration is predicted to be deleterious by in silico analysis. Based on the supporting evidence, this variant is interpreted as a disease-causing mutation. -
