Variant summary

Our verdict is Likely benign. The variant received -4 ACMG points: 2P and 6B. PM1BP4BP6BS2

The NM_000321.3(RB1):​c.1966C>T​(p.Arg656Trp) variant causes a missense change involving the alteration of a non-conserved nucleotide. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 0.00101 in 1,613,844 control chromosomes in the GnomAD database, including 3 homozygotes. In-silico tool predicts a benign outcome for this variant. Variant has been reported in ClinVar as Conflicting classifications of pathogenicity (no stars). Another variant affecting the same amino acid position, but resulting in a different missense (i.e. R656Q) has been classified as Likely benign.

Genes affected
RB1 (HGNC:9884): (RB transcriptional corepressor 1) The protein encoded by this gene is a negative regulator of the cell cycle and was the first tumor suppressor gene found. The encoded protein also stabilizes constitutive heterochromatin to maintain the overall chromatin structure. The active, hypophosphorylated form of the protein binds transcription factor E2F1. Defects in this gene are a cause of childhood cancer retinoblastoma (RB), bladder cancer, and osteogenic sarcoma. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]

Significance:Likely benign
Review Status:criteria provided, single submitter
Collection Method:clinical testing

This variant was observed as part of a predisposition screen in an ostensibly healthy population. A literature search was performed for the gene, cDNA change, and amino acid change (where applicable). Publications were found based on this search. The evidence from the literature, in combination with allele frequency data from public databases where available, was sufficient to determine this variant is unlikely to cause disease. Therefore, this variant is classified as likely benign. -

Variant summary: RB1 c.1966C>T (p.Arg656Trp) results in a non-conservative amino acid change located in the Retinoblastoma-associated protein, B-box domain (IPR002719) of the encoded protein sequence. Three of five in-silico tools predict a damaging effect of the variant on protein function. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 0.00066 in 251334 control chromosomes. The observed variant frequency is approximately 16 fold of the estimated maximal expected allele frequency for a pathogenic variant in RB1 causing Retinoblastoma phenotype (4.2e-05), strongly suggesting that the variant is benign. Although appearing in the literature, to our knowledge, no penetrant association of c.1966C>T in individuals affected with Retinoblastoma and no experimental evidence demonstrating its impact on protein function have been reported. Seven clinical diagnostic laboratories have submitted clinical-significance assessments for this variant to ClinVar after 2014 without evidence for independent evaluation and a predominant consensus as benign/likely benign (n=5) (VUS, n=2). Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as likely benign. -

This alteration is classified as likely benign based on a combination of the following: seen in unaffected individuals, population frequency, intact protein function, lack of segregation with disease, co-occurrence, RNA analysis, in silico models, amino acid conservation, lack of disease association in case-control studies, and/or the mechanism of disease or impacted region is inconsistent with a known cause of pathogenicity. -
