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 Likely_pathogenic. Variant got 7 ACMG points.

• PM1: In a domain MH2 (size 229) in uniprot entity SMAD4_HUMAN there are 40 pathogenic changes around while only 2 benign (95%) in NM_005359.6
• PM2: Very rare variant in population databases, with high coverage
• 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.
• PP3: MetaRNN computational evidence supports a deleterious effect, 0.93
