Genes affected
CDH1 (HGNC:1748): (cadherin 1) This gene encodes a classical cadherin of the cadherin superfamily. Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants, at least one of which encodes a preproprotein that is proteolytically processed to generate the mature glycoprotein. This calcium-dependent cell-cell adhesion protein is comprised of five extracellular cadherin repeats, a transmembrane region and a highly conserved cytoplasmic tail. Mutations in this gene are correlated with gastric, breast, colorectal, thyroid and ovarian cancer. Loss of function of this gene is thought to contribute to cancer progression by increasing proliferation, invasion, and/or metastasis. The ectodomain of this protein mediates bacterial adhesion to mammalian cells and the cytoplasmic domain is required for internalization. This gene is present in a gene cluster with other members of the cadherin family on chromosome 16. [provided by RefSeq, Nov 2015]

This variant is considered likely pathogenic. mRNA analysis has demonstrated abnormal mRNA splicing occurs [PMID: 27880784]. This variant has been reported in multiple individuals with clinical features of gene-specific disease [PMID: 23709761, 26182300, 27880784]. -

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

This sequence change replaces threonine, which is neutral and polar, with arginine, which is basic and polar, at codon 560 of the CDH1 protein (p.Thr560Arg). RNA analysis indicates that this missense change induces altered splicing and may result in an absent or altered protein product. This variant is not present in population databases (gnomAD no frequency). This missense change has been observed in individuals with diffuse gastric cancer (PMID: 23709761, 27880784, 29769627, 30745422). It has also been observed to segregate with disease in related individuals. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 234554). An algorithm developed to predict the effect of missense changes on protein structure and function (PolyPhen-2) suggests that this variant is likely to be disruptive. Studies have shown that this missense change results in activation of a cryptic donor splice site and introduces a premature termination codon (PMID: 27880784, 29769627). The resulting mRNA is expected to undergo nonsense-mediated decay. For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. -

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

The c.1679C>G variant (also known as p.T560R), located in coding exon 11 of the CDH1 gene, results from a C to G substitution at nucleotide position 1679. The threonine at codon 560 is replaced by arginine, an amino acid with similar properties. This nucleotide position is not well conserved in available vertebrate species. Multiple studies have described this alteration in families meeting diagnostic criteria for Hereditary Diffuse Gastric Cancer syndrome. In addition, this alteration has been observed to segregate with disease in at least 4 families (Benusiglio PR et al. J. Med. Genet. 2013 Jul;50:486-9; Yelskaya Z et al. PLoS ONE 2016 Nov;11(11):e0165654; Pena-Couso L et al. Eur. J. Hum. Genet. 2018 09;26(9):1348-1353). In silico splice site analysis predicts that this alteration will result in the creation or strengthening of a novel splice donor site. RNA assay has demonstrated the creation of a novel splice donor site causing a frameshift and premature protein truncation (Yelskaya Z et al. PLoS ONE 2016 Nov;11(11):e0165654; Pena-Couso L et al. Eur. J. Hum. Genet. 2018 09;26(9):1348-1353; Ambry internal data). Based on the supporting evidence, this alteration is interpreted as a disease-causing mutation. -

The CDH1 c.1679C>G (p.Thr560Arg) variant activates a cryptic splice donor site and has been shown in the published literature to cause aberrant mRNA splicing and the production of a truncated CDH1 transcript (PMID: 27880784 (2016)). Further experimental studies showed this variant has deleterious effects on CDH1 protein function (PMID: 29769627 (2018)). This variant has been reported in multiple individuals with diffused gastric cancer and lobular breast cancer (PMIDs: 36436516 (2022), 34949788 (2022), 29769627 (2018), 23709761 (2013)), and segregated with disease in at least two families with HDGC (PMIDs: 33268956 (2020), 27880784 (2016)). This variant has not been reported in large, multi-ethnic general populations (Genome Aggregation Database, http://gnomad.broadinstitute.org). Based on the available information, this variant is classified as pathogenic. -

The c.1679C>G (p.Thr560Arg) variant is absent in the gnomAD cohort (PM2_Supporting; http://gnomad.broadinstitute.org). There are at least 3 in silico predictors in agreement that this variant affects splicing (PP3). There is also an RNA assay demonstrating abnormal out-of-frame transcript (PS3; PMID: 27880784). Additionally, the variant was found to co-segregation with disease in multiple affected family members, with >7 meioses observed across at least 4 families (PP1_Strong; PMID: 27880784, 29769627). This variant has been reported in at least 4 families meeting HDGC clinical criteria (PS4; PMID: 27880784, 29769627, 23709761 and SCV000580704.2).

Significance: Uncertain significance
Review Status: criteria provided, single submitter
Collection Method: clinical testing

This variant was observed in at least one individual diagnosed with early-onset diffuse gastric cancer (Benusiglio 2013). CDH1 Thr560Arg was not observed in approximately 6,500 individuals of European and African American ancestry in the NHLBI Exome Sequencing Project, indicating it is not a common benign variant in these populations. Since Threonine and Arginine differ in some properties, this is considered a semi-conservative amino acid substitution. CDH1 Thr560Arg occurs at a position that is conserved in mammals and is located in the Cadherin 4 domain (UniProt). In silico analyses predict that this variant is probably damaging to protein structure and function. Based on currently available evidence, it is unclear whether CDH1 Thr560Arg is pathogenic or benign. We consider it to be a variant of uncertain significance. -
