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]

ACMG classification

Our verdict: Pathogenic. The variant received 12 ACMG points.

• PVS1: Splicing +-2 bp (donor or acceptor) variant, product NOT destroyed by NMD, known LOF gene, truncates exone, which is 0.011123071 fraction of the gene. Cryptic splice site detected, with MaxEntScore 8.5, offset of 39, new splice context is: attGTaagt. Cryptic site results in inframe change. If cryptic site found is not functional and variant results in exon loss, it results in frameshift change.
• PM2: Very rare variant in population databases, with high coverage
• PP5: Variant 13-48473391-G-T is Pathogenic according to our data. Variant chr13-48473391-G-T is described in ClinVar as Pathogenic. ClinVar VariationId is 428660.Status of the report is criteria_provided_multiple_submitters_no_conflicts, 2 stars.

Significance: Pathogenic

Review Status: criteria provided, single submitter

Collection Method: clinical testing

This sequence change affects a donor splice site in intron 24 of the RB1 gene. It is expected to disrupt RNA splicing. Variants that disrupt the donor or acceptor splice site typically lead to a loss of protein function (PMID: 16199547), and loss-of-function variants in RB1 are known to be pathogenic (PMID: 17096365). This variant is not present in population databases (gnomAD no frequency). Disruption of this splice site has been observed in individual(s) with retinoblastoma (PMID: 16595082). This variant is also known as g.170403G>T. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 428660). Algorithms developed to predict the effect of sequence changes on RNA splicing suggest that this variant may disrupt the consensus splice site. This variant disrupts the c.2520+1G nucleotide in the RB1 gene. Other variant(s) that disrupt this nucleotide have been determined to be pathogenic (PMID: 28193182). This suggests that this nucleotide is clinically significant, and that variants that disrupt this position are likely to be disease-causing. For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic.

Significance: Pathogenic

Review Status: criteria provided, single submitter

Collection Method: clinical testing

Alterations that disrupt the canonical splice site are expected to cause aberrant splicing, resulting in an abnormal protein or a transcript that is subject to nonsense-mediated mRNA decay. As such, this alteration is classified as a disease-causing mutation.
