Variant summary

Our verdict is Pathogenic. Variant got 19 ACMG points: 19P and 0B. PM1 PM2 PM5 PP2 PP3_Strong PP5_Very_Strong

The NM_005359.6(SMAD4):​c.1087T>G​(p.Cys363Gly) variant causes a missense change involving the alteration of a conserved nucleotide. The variant was absent in control chromosomes in GnomAD project. In-silico tool predicts a pathogenic outcome for this variant. 12/21 in silico tools predict a damaging outcome for this variant. Variant has been reported in ClinVar as Likely pathogenic (★★). Another variant affecting the same amino acid position, but resulting in a different missense (i.e. C363R) has been classified as Pathogenic.

Genes affected

SMAD4 (HGNC:6770): (SMAD family member 4) This gene encodes a member of the Smad family of signal transduction proteins. Smad proteins are phosphorylated and activated by transmembrane serine-threonine receptor kinases in response to transforming growth factor (TGF)-beta signaling. The product of this gene forms homomeric complexes and heteromeric complexes with other activated Smad proteins, which then accumulate in the nucleus and regulate the transcription of target genes. This protein binds to DNA and recognizes an 8-bp palindromic sequence (GTCTAGAC) called the Smad-binding element (SBE). The protein acts as a tumor suppressor and inhibits epithelial cell proliferation. It may also have an inhibitory effect on tumors by reducing angiogenesis and increasing blood vessel hyperpermeability. The encoded protein is a crucial component of the bone morphogenetic protein signaling pathway. The Smad proteins are subject to complex regulation by post-translational modifications. Mutations or deletions in this gene have been shown to result in pancreatic cancer, juvenile polyposis syndrome, and hereditary hemorrhagic telangiectasia syndrome. [provided by RefSeq, May 2022]

ACMG classification

Verdict is Pathogenic. Variant got 19 ACMG points.

• PM1: In a strand (size 4) in uniprot entity SMAD4_HUMAN there are 11 pathogenic changes around while only 0 benign (100%) in NM_005359.6
• PM2: Very rare variant in population databases, with high coverage
• PM5: Other missense variant is known to change same aminoacid residue: Variant chr18-51065554-T-C is described in Lovd as [Pathogenic].
• PP2: Missense variant in gene, where missense usually causes diseases (based on misZ statistic), SMAD4. . Gene score misZ 4.1308 (greater than the threshold 3.09). Trascript score misZ 4.9346 (greater than threshold 3.09). GenCC has associacion of gene with familial thoracic aortic aneurysm and aortic dissection, generalized juvenile polyposis/juvenile polyposis coli, hereditary hemorrhagic telangiectasia, Myhre syndrome, pulmonary arterial hypertension, juvenile polyposis/hereditary hemorrhagic telangiectasia syndrome, juvenile polyposis syndrome.

The SMAD4 c.1087T>G variant is predicted to result in the amino acid substitution p.Cys363Gly. To our knowledge, this variant has not been reported in the literature or in a large population database (http://gnomad.broadinstitute.org), indicating this variant is rare. This variant is listed as likely pathogenic in ClinVar database (https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/clinvar/variation/1499663/). Other variant at this codon p.Cys363Arg has been reported in at least two individuals with autosomal dominant Juvenile polyposis/hereditary hemorrhagic telangiectasia syndrome (Aretz et al. 2007. PubMed ID: 17873119; Lux et al. 2013. PubMed ID: 23805858). Other variant at this codon p.Arg363Tyr is listed as likely pathogenic in ClinVar database (https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/clinvar/variation/233663/). This variant is interpreted as likely pathogenic. -

ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 1499663). This sequence change replaces cysteine, which is neutral and slightly polar, with glycine, which is neutral and non-polar, at codon 363 of the SMAD4 protein (p.Cys363Gly). This variant is not present in population databases (gnomAD no frequency). This missense change has been observed in individual(s) with clinical features of juvenile polyposis syndrome (Invitae). Advanced modeling of protein sequence and biophysical properties (such as structural, functional, and spatial information, amino acid conservation, physicochemical variation, residue mobility, and thermodynamic stability) has been performed at Invitae for this missense variant, however the output from this modeling did not meet the statistical confidence thresholds required to predict the impact of this variant on SMAD4 protein function. This variant disrupts the p.Cys363 amino acid residue in SMAD4. Other variant(s) that disrupt this residue have been determined to be pathogenic (PMID: 17873119, 23805858; Invitae). This suggests that this residue is clinically significant, and that variants that disrupt this residue are likely to be disease-causing. In summary, the currently available evidence indicates that the variant is pathogenic, but additional data are needed to prove that conclusively. Therefore, this variant has been classified as Likely Pathogenic. -
