Our verdict is Likely benign. Variant got -3 ACMG points: 2P and 5B. BS2BP4PM2_SupportingPS4_Supporting
This summary comes from the ClinGen Evidence Repository: The NM_000546.6: c.1135C>A variant in TP53 is a missense variant predicted to cause substitution of argine by serine at amino acid 379 (p.Arg379Ser). This variant has been observed in at least 8 heterozygous unrelated females from the same data source with no personal history of cancer prior to age 60 years and no personal history of sarcoma at any age (BS2; Internal lab contributor: Invitae). This variant has been reported in 1 proband meeting Revised Chompret criteria and is reported in 1 individual under the age of 40 diagnosed with a HER2+ breast cancer. Based on this evidence, this variant scores 1 total point meeting the TP53 VCEP phenotype scoring criteria of 1-1.5 points. (PS4_Supporting; Internal lab contributors: Invitae, GeneDx). This variant has an allele frequency of 0.000005932 (7/1179994 alleles) in the European (non-Finnish) population in gnomAD v4.1.0 which is lower than the Clingen TP53 VCEP threshold (<0.00004) for PM2_Supporting, and therefore meets this criterion (PM2_Supporting). Computational predictor scores (BayesDel = -0.1497; Align GVGD Class C0) are below the recommended thresholds (BayesDel ≤ -0.008 and an Align GVGD Class ≤ 55), evidence that does not predict a damaging effect on TP53 via protein change. SpliceAI predicts that the variant has no impact on splicing. (BP4_Moderate). In summary, this variant meets the criteria to be classified as Likely Benign for Li Fraumeni syndrome based on the ACMG/AMP criteria applied, as specified by the ClinGen TP53 VCEP: BS2, PS4_Supporting, PM2_Supporting, BS4_Moderate.

Li-Fraumeni syndrome Uncertain:2Benign:1
This sequence change replaces arginine, which is basic and polar, with serine, which is neutral and polar, at codon 379 of the TP53 protein (p.Arg379Ser). This variant is present in population databases (rs749061599, gnomAD 0.0009%). This missense change has been observed in individual(s) with ovarian cancer (PMID: 27616075). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 186762). Invitae Evidence Modeling of protein sequence and biophysical properties (such as structural, functional, and spatial information, amino acid conservation, physicochemical variation, residue mobility, and thermodynamic stability) indicates that this missense variant is not expected to disrupt TP53 protein function with a negative predictive value of 95%. Experimental studies are conflicting or provide insufficient evidence to determine the effect of this variant on TP53 function (PMID: 12826609, 30224644). In summary, the available evidence is currently insufficient to determine the role of this variant in disease. Therefore, it has been classified as a Variant of Uncertain Significance. -
This missense variant replaces arginine with serine at codon 379 of the TP53 protein. Computational prediction suggests that this variant may not impact protein structure and function (internally defined REVEL score threshold <= 0.5, PMID: 27666373). Functional studies have shown that this variant is functional in yeast based transactivation studies and human cell growth suppression assays (PMID: 12826609, 30224644). This variant has been reported in an individual affected with ovarian cancer (PMID: 27616075). This variant has been identified in 1/251414 chromosomes in the general population by the Genome Aggregation Database (gnomAD). The available evidence is insufficient to determine the role of this variant in disease conclusively. Therefore, this variant is classified as a Variant of Uncertain Significance. -

Li-Fraumeni syndrome 1 Uncertain:2
This variant is classified as a variant of uncertain significance as there is insufficient evidence to determine its impact on protein function and/or cancer risk. -

This variant is denoted TP53 c.1135C>A at the cDNA level, p.Arg379Ser (R379S) at the protein level, and results in the change of an Arginine to a Serine (CGC>AGC). This variant has not, to our knowledge, been published in the literature as pathogenic or benign. This variant is reported as having partially functional transactivation in the International Agency for Research on Cancer TP53 database based on functional assays by Kato et al. (2003). TP53 Arg379Ser was not observed in approximately 6,500 individuals of European and African American ancestry in the NHLBI Exome Sequencing Project, suggesting it is not a common benign variant in these populations. Since Arginine and Serine differ in some properties, this is considered a semi-conservative amino acid substitution. TP53 Arg379Ser occurs at a position that is not conserved and is located within the C-terminal regulatory domain (Bode 2004). In silico analyses are inconsistent regarding the effect this variant may have on protein structure and function. Based on currently available evidence, it is unclear whether TP53 Arg379Ser is a pathogenic or benign variant. We consider it to be a variant of uncertain significance. -
Hereditary cancer-predisposing syndrome Uncertain:2
This missense variant replaces arginine with serine at codon 379 of the TP53 protein.

This variant has been identified in 1/251414 chromosomes in the general population by the Genome Aggregation Database (gnomAD).

The p.R379S variant (also known as c.1135C>A), located in coding exon 10 of the TP53 gene, results from a C to A substitution at nucleotide position 1135. The arginine at codon 379 is replaced by serine, an amino acid with dissimilar properties. This alteration was previously reported in an individual diagnosed with ovarian cancer at 54 years, who had a family history of breast and prostate cancer (Kraus C et al. Int. J. Cancer, 2017 Jan;140:95-102). This variant is reported to have partially functional transactivation in yeast based assays (Kato S et al. Proc. Natl. Acad. Sci. USA. 2003 Jul;100:8424-9). Studies conducted in human cell lines indicate this alteration is proficient at growth suppression and has no dominant negative effect (Giacomelli AO et al. Nat. Genet. 2018 Oct;50:1381-1387). This amino acid position is not well conserved in available vertebrate species. In addition, the in silico prediction for this alteration is inconclusive. Since supporting evidence is limited at this time, the clinical significance of this alteration remains unclear. -
