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

Verdict is Pathogenic. Variant got 14 ACMG points.

• PM2: Very rare variant in population databases, with high coverage
• PP3: Splicing scoreres supports a deletorius effect: Scorers claiming Pathogenic: dbscSNV1_ADA, dbscSNV1_RF, max_spliceai. No scorers claiming Uncertain. No scorers claiming Benign.
• PP5: Variant 13-48473395-G-T is Pathogenic according to our data. Variant chr13-48473395-G-T is described in ClinVar as [Likely_pathogenic]. Clinvar id is 567155.Status of the report is criteria_provided_multiple_submitters_no_conflicts, 2 stars.

For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. This sequence change falls in intron 24 of the RB1 gene. It does not directly change the encoded amino acid sequence of the RB1 protein, but it affects a nucleotide within the consensus splice site of the intron. This variant is not present in population databases (ExAC no frequency). This variant has been reported to be de novo in an individual affected with retinoblastoma (PMID: 28193182). This variant is also known as g.170407G>T in the literature. Nucleotide substitutions within the consensus splice site are a relatively common cause of aberrant splicing (PMID: 17576681, 9536098). Algorithms developed to predict the effect of sequence changes on RNA splicing suggest that this variant may disrupt the consensus splice site, but this prediction has not been confirmed by published transcriptional studies. A different variant affecting this nucleotide (c.2520+5G>A) has been determined to be pathogenic (PMID: 15605413). This suggests that this nucleotide is important for normal RNA splicing, and that other variants at this position may also be pathogenic. -
