Variant summary

Our verdict is Likely benign. The variant received -5 ACMG points: 0P and 5B. BP4BS2

This summary comes from the ClinGen Evidence Repository: The NM_000546.6: c.214C>G variant in TP53 is a missense variant predicted to cause substitution of proline by alanine at amino acid 72 (p.Pro72Ala).This is a polymorphic residue (alternate nomenclature: p.Arg72). This variant received a total of 0.5 points in one individual. (PS4 not met; Internal lab contributors). This variant has been observed in 4-7 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_Moderate; Internal lab contributor). In vitro assays performed in yeast and/or human cell lines showed conflicting results with respect to transactivation, growth suppression activity, and/or tetramer formation (PS3/BS3 not met; PMIDs: 12826609, 30224644). Computational predictor scores (BayesDel = -0.215412; Align GVGD Class C0) are below the recommended thresholds (BayesDel < 0.16 and > -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_Moderate, BP4_Moderate.

Genes affected
TP53 (HGNC:11998): (tumor protein p53) This gene encodes a tumor suppressor protein containing transcriptional activation, DNA binding, and oligomerization domains. The encoded protein responds to diverse cellular stresses to regulate expression of target genes, thereby inducing cell cycle arrest, apoptosis, senescence, DNA repair, or changes in metabolism. Mutations in this gene are associated with a variety of human cancers, including hereditary cancers such as Li-Fraumeni syndrome. Alternative splicing of this gene and the use of alternate promoters result in multiple transcript variants and isoforms. Additional isoforms have also been shown to result from the use of alternate translation initiation codons from identical transcript variants (PMIDs: 12032546, 20937277).

This missense variant replaces proline with alanine at codon 72 of the TP53 protein. Computational prediction suggests that this variant may not impact protein structure and function. Functional studies have reported for this variant as functional in yeast based transcriptional transactivation studies (PMID: 12826609). This variant has been reported in individuals affected with breast cancer (PMID: 30287823, 33471991) as well as unaffected controls (PMID: 30287823, 32980694, 33471991). This variant has also been reported in the normal tissue of an individual affected with lung and colon cancer (PMID: 31472337). This variant has been identified in 4/282046 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.

The NM_000546.6: c.214C>G variant in TP53 is a missense variant predicted to cause substitution of proline by alanine at amino acid 72 (p.Pro72Ala). This is a polymorphic residue (alternate nomenclature: p.Arg72). This variant received a total of 0.5 points in one individual. (PS4 not met; Internal lab contributors). This variant has been observed in 4-7 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_Moderate; Internal lab contributor). In vitro assays performed in yeast and/or human cell lines showed conflicting results with respect to transactivation, growth suppression activity, and/or tetramer formation (PS3/BS3 not met; PMIDs: 12826609, 30224644). Computational predictor scores (BayesDel = -0.215412; Align GVGD Class C0) are below the recommended thresholds (BayesDel < 0.16 and > -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_Moderate, BP4_Moderate.

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

This sequence change replaces proline, which is neutral and non-polar, with alanine, which is neutral and non-polar, at codon 72 of the TP53 protein (p.Pro72Ala). This variant is present in population databases (rs587782769, gnomAD 0.02%). This variant has not been reported in the literature in individuals affected with TP53-related conditions. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 142854). Invitae Evidence Modeling incorporating data from in vitro experimental studies (PMID: 12826609, 29979965, 30224644) indicates that this missense variant is not expected to disrupt TP53 function with a negative predictive value of 97.5%. Experimental studies have shown that this missense change does not substantially affect TP53 function (PMID: 12826609, 23713777). 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.

Collection Method:clinical testing

The frequency of this variant in the general population, 0.0002 (4/19940 chromosomes in East Asian subpopulation, http://gnomad.broadinstitute.org), is higher than would generally be expected for pathogenic variants in this gene. In the published literature, the variant has been reported with other variants in various tumors without specifying its germline status including sebaceous carcinoma (PMID: 27311873 (2016)), non small cell lung cancer (PMIDs: 28780976 (2018), 29575851 (2018)), invasive mucinous adenocarcinoma of the lung (PMID: 31472337 (2019)), soft tissue carcinoma (PMID: 31089155 (2019)), oral neoplasm (PMID: 31845386 (2020)), rhabdomyosarcoma (PMID: 34166060 (2021)), and was also identified in a patient affected with Peutz-Jeghers syndrome (PMID: 34754157 (2021)). Functional studies investigating the effect of this variant upon transactivation activity and the capacity to induce apoptosis are inconclusive (PMIDs: 12826609 (2003), 23713777 (2014), The TP53 Database (https://tp53.isb-cgc.org/)), further research is needed. Analysis of this variant using bioinformatics tools for the prediction of the effect of amino acid changes on protein structure and function yielded predictions that this variant is benign. Based on the available information, we are unable to determine the clinical significance of this variant.

This variant is denoted TP53 c.214C>G at the cDNA level, p.Pro72Ala (P72A) at the protein level, and results in the change of a Proline to an Alanine (CCC>GCC). This variant was observed in the tissue of a hepatocellular carcinoma and a high-grade glioblastoma as a somatic variant (Derakhshandeh-Peykar 2011, Ji 2014). TP53 Pro72Ala 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 Proline and Alanine differ in some properties, this is considered a semi-conservative amino acid substitution. TP53 Pro72Ala occurs at a position that is not conserved, with Alanine being the naturally occurring amino acid at this position in a few mammals, and is located in the SH3 domain (Bode 2004). In silico analyses predict that this variant is unlikely to alter protein structure or function. Based on currently available information, it is unclear whether TP53 Pro72Ala is pathogenic or benign. We consider it to be a variant of uncertain significance.

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

The p.P72A variant (also known as c.214C>G), located in coding exon 3 of the TP53 gene, results from a C to G substitution at nucleotide position 214. The proline at codon 72 is replaced by alanine, an amino acid with highly similar properties. This variant is reported to have transactivation similar to wild type in yeast based assays (IARC TP53 database: Kato S et al. Proc. Natl. Acad. Sci. USA 2003 Jul;100:8424-9). This amino acid position is poorly conserved in available vertebrate species. In addition, this alteration is predicted to be tolerated by in silico analysis. Since supporting evidence is limited at this time, the clinical significance of p.P72A remains unclear.

The TP53 c.214C>G variant is predicted to result in the amino acid substitution p.Pro72Ala. This variant has been reported in individuals with breast cancer as well as in controls (Supplementary Data 1 and 2, Momozawa et al. 2018. PubMed ID: 30287823; Supplementary Data, Dorling et al. 2021. PubMed ID: 33471991; Supplementary Table 2, Okawa et al. 2022. PubMed ID: 36243179). It was detected in both tumor and normal tissue in an individual with invasive mucinous adenocarcinoma (Kawai et al. 2019. PubMed ID: 31472337). This variant has also been detected in an individual with Peutz-Jeghers syndrome, who also carried an SLX4 variant (Gu et al. 2021. PubMed ID: 34754157). Functional studies have shown this variant does not have a significant negative impact on protein function (Ji et al. 2014. PubMed ID: 23713777; Kato et al. 2003. PubMed ID: 12826609). This variant is reported in 0.020% of alleles in individuals of East Asian descent in gnomAD. This variant is interpreted as a variant of uncertain significance by multiple submitters in ClinVar (https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/clinvar/variation/142854/). At this time, the clinical significance of this variant is uncertain due to the absence of conclusive functional and genetic evidence.
