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]

Variant: c.1498A>G (p.Ile500Val) in exon 12 of the SMAD4 gene. Zygosity and phenotype: Identified in the heterozygous state in affected individual; phenotype consistent with Myhre Syndrome. Protein effect: Missense substitution within the MAD homology domain 2, a well-established functional region where pathogenic variants are frequently reported. Functional studies show compromised activation of the TGF-β pathway, consistent with a dominant-negative mechanism associated with Myhre syndrome (PMID: 36194927). Conservation and in silico evidence: Residue highly conserved across species; pathogenicity predictors indicate deleterious effect on protein function (REVEL score: 0.71). SMAD4 has low rate for benign missense variants (z-score: 4.94). Population data: Low allele frequency in population databases (gnomAD); Residue evidence: Another pathogenic missense change at the same residue has been reported (Accession: VCV000030149.19). ClinVar: Reported in multiple individuals as Pathogenic (ID:30150) Segregation/compound data: Segregation analyses, with and without confirmation of paternity, indicate a de novo occurrence (PMID: 22243968, 29230941, 31654632). ACMG/AMP criteria applied: PS2, PS3_Supporting, PS4_Moderate, PM1, PM2_Supporting, PM5, PP2, PP3, following ClinGen SVI recommendations.

This sequence variant is a single nucleotide substitution (A>G) at coding position 1498 of the SMAD4 gene that results in a isoleucine to valine amino acid change at residue 500 of the SMAD4 protein. The Ile500 residue falls in the Mad Homology 2 domain which plays a critical role in the maintence of the extracellular matrix (PMID:24398790). This is a well-studied, previously reported variant (ClinVar, Gene Reviews, PMID: 28406602) that has been observed in individuals affected by Myhre syndrome (PMID:24398790, 27302097, 35907855, 22243968, 28406602). This variant is present in 1 of 251,462 alleles (0.0004%) in the gnomAD population database. Multiple bioinformatic tools predict that this isoleucine to valine amino acid change would be damaging, and the isoleucine residue is highly conserved across the vertebrate species examined. Cultured cells containing this variant had an increased production of SMAD4, an altered pattern of gene expression related to the maintence of the extracelluar matrix, and a disrupted extracellular matrix (PMID: 24398790). Given this information, we consider this a pathogenic variant. ACMG Criteria: PM2, PP2, PS3, PS4

The SMAD4 c.1498A>G (p.Ile500Val) missense variant results in the substitution of isoleucine at amino acid position 500 with valine. This variant is the most commonly reported variant in Myhre syndrome and has been described in at least 34 affected individuals, in many of whom it occurred de novo (PMID: 27302097; PMID: 36194927). The c.1498A>G variant is reported in the Genome Aggregation Database in one allele at a frequency of 0.000009 in the European (non-Finnish) population (version 2.1.1). Two other missense changes affecting the same position, p.Ile500Thr and p.Ile500Met, have also been reported in individuals with Myhre syndrome (PMID: 27302097). The valine and threonine changes have been shown to disrupt TGF-β and BMP signaling in HEK293T cells and patient fibroblasts, and the p.Ile500Val variant has been specifically shown to have a dominant-negative effect on wild-type SMAD4 (PMID: 22158539; PMID 36194927). Based on the available evidence, the c.1498A>G (p.Ile500Val) variant is classified as pathogenic for Myhre syndrome.

The SMAD4 c.1498A>G variant is predicted to result in the amino acid substitution p.Ile500Val. This variant has been reported to be a recurrent cause of Myhre syndrome and has been reported de novo in multiple individuals (see, for example, Le Goff et al. 2011. PubMed ID: 22158539; Alagia et al. 2018. PubMed ID: 29230941; Yu et al. 2019. PubMed ID: 30921096; Li et al. 2020. PubMed ID: 31654632). In vitro experimental studies suggest this variant affects protein function (Piccolo et al. 2014. PubMed ID: 24398790). Alternative nucleotide changes affecting the same amino acid (p.Ile500Thr, p.Ile500Met) have also been reported in patients with Myhre syndrome (Le Goff et al. 2011. PubMed ID: 22158539).This variant is reported in 0.00088% of alleles in individuals of European (non-Finnish) descent in gnomAD. It is interpreted in ClinVar as pathogenic (https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/clinvar/variation/30150/). This variant is interpreted as pathogenic.

This sequence change replaces isoleucine, which is neutral and non-polar, with valine, which is neutral and non-polar, at codon 500 of the SMAD4 protein (p.Ile500Val). This variant is present in population databases (rs281875322, gnomAD 0.0009%). This missense change has been observed in individual(s) with Myhre syndrome (PMID: 22158539, 22243968, 22585601, 24398790, 26636501, 27302097). In at least one individual the variant was observed to be de novo. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 30150). 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) has been performed 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. Experimental studies have shown that this missense change affects SMAD4 function (PMID: 24398790). This variant disrupts the p.Ile500 amino acid residue in SMAD4. Other variant(s) that disrupt this residue have been determined to be pathogenic (PMID: 22158539, 22243968, 22683461). This suggests that this residue is clinically significant, and that variants that disrupt this residue are likely to be disease-causing. For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic.

The c.1498A>G (p.I500V) alteration is located in exon 12 (coding exon 11) of the SMAD4 gene. This alteration results from an A to G substitution at nucleotide position 1498, causing the isoleucine (I) at amino acid position 500 to be replaced by a valine (V). for Myhre syndrome; however, its clinical significance for juvenile polyposis/hereditary hemorrhagic telangiectasia syndrome is uncertain. Based on data from the Genome Aggregation Database (gnomAD), the SMAD4 c.1498A>G alteration was observed in <0.01% (1/251462) of total alleles studied. This alteration has been previously reported as de novo in multiple unrelated patients with Myhre syndrome and affects a known mutational hotspot (Le Goff, 2011; Caputo, 2012; Lin 2016; Alagia, 2018; Yu, 2019; Varenyiova, 2020). This amino acid position is highly conserved in available vertebrate species. Functional analysis demonstrated that the p.I500V alteration interferes with ubiquitination and degradation of SMAD4 resulting in accumulation of protein and induction of the TGFbeta pathway (Le Goff, 2011; Caputo, 2012; Piccolo, 2014). This alteration is predicted to be deleterious by in silico analysis. Based on the available evidence, this alteration is classified as pathogenic.

Variant summary: SMAD4 c.1498A>G (p.Ile500Val) results in a conservative amino acid change in the encoded protein sequence. Algorithms developed to predict the effect of missense changes on protein structure and function are either unavailable or do not agree on the potential impact of this missense change. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 4e-06 in 251462 control chromosomes (gnomAD). c.1498A>G has been observed in multiple individuals affected with Myhre syndrome (e.g, Michot_2014). These data indicate that the variant is very likely to be associated with disease. The following publication has been ascertained in the context of this evaluation (PMID: 24424121). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 30150). Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as pathogenic.

This SMAD4 variant (rs281875322) is rare (<0.1%) in a large population dataset (gnomADv2.1.1: 1/251462 total alleles; 0.0004%; no homozygotes) and has been reported in ClinVar. This variant is the most commonly reported variant in Myhre syndrome and has been described in multiple unrelated individuals, typically as a de novo change. Experiments using p.Ile500Val patient fibroblasts have shown a disruption of TGF-B and BMP signaling. Two other missense changes affecting the same position, p.Ile500Thr and p.Ile500Met, have also been reported in individuals with Myhre syndrome. We consider c.1498A>G to be pathogenic for autosomal dominant Myhre syndrome.

SMAD4, c.1498A>G, p.Ile500Val The c.1498A>G (p. Ile500Val) variant in the SMAD4 gene has been reported in multiple individuals with MYRHE syndrome (PMID 22158539, 22243968, 22585601, 24398790, 26636501, 27302097). This variant is observed with an ultra-low minor allele frequency in the gnomAD database (1/246232). This variant is on a known mutation hot spot with another pathogenic variant p.Ile500Thr. Functional studies on this variant suggested increased SMAD4 protein levels and increased TGF-beta signaling (PMID 24398790). Therefore, the c.1498A>G (p. Ile500Val) variant in the SMAD4 gene is classified as pathogenic
