Genes affected

STK11 (HGNC:11389): (serine/threonine kinase 11) The protein encoded by this gene is a serine/threonine kinase that regulates cell polarity and energy metabolism and functions as a tumor suppressor. Mutations in this gene have been associated with the autosomal dominant Peutz-Jeghers syndrome, as well as with skin, pancreatic, and testicular cancers. [provided by RefSeq, May 2022]

Significance: Pathogenic

Review Status: criteria provided, single submitter

Collection Method: clinical testing

This sequence change creates a premature translational stop signal (p.Gln112*) in the STK11 gene. It is expected to result in an absent or disrupted protein product. Loss-of-function variants in STK11 are known to be pathogenic (PMID: 15188174, 16287113). This variant is not present in population databases (gnomAD no frequency). This premature translational stop signal has been observed in individual(s) with clinical features of Peutz-Jeghers syndrome (PMID: 17404884, 26979979, 30334930). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 1075653). For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. -

Significance: Pathogenic

Review Status: criteria provided, single submitter

Collection Method: clinical testing

The p.Q112* pathogenic mutation (also known as c.334C>T), located in coding exon 2 of the STK11 gene, results from a C to T substitution at nucleotide position 334. This changes the amino acid from a glutamine to a stop codon within coding exon 2. This variant was reported in individual(s) with features consistent with Peutz-Jeghers syndrome; in at least one individual, it was determined to be de novo (Mehenni H et al. Dig Dis Sci, 2007 Aug;52:1924-33; Jelsig AM et al. Int J Colorectal Dis, 2016 May;31:997-1004; Li R et al. Oncol Lett, 2018 Jan;15:717-726; Zhao HM et al. J Pediatr Gastroenterol Nutr, 2019 Feb;68:199-206). This variant is considered to be rare based on population cohorts in the Genome Aggregation Database (gnomAD). In addition to the clinical data presented in the literature, this alteration is expected to result in loss of function by premature protein truncation or nonsense-mediated mRNA decay. As such, this alteration is interpreted as a disease-causing mutation. -
