Genes affected
EGFR (HGNC:3236): (epidermal growth factor receptor) The protein encoded by this gene is a transmembrane glycoprotein that is a member of the protein kinase superfamily. This protein is a receptor for members of the epidermal growth factor family. EGFR is a cell surface protein that binds to epidermal growth factor, thus inducing receptor dimerization and tyrosine autophosphorylation leading to cell proliferation. Mutations in this gene are associated with lung cancer. EGFR is a component of the cytokine storm which contributes to a severe form of Coronavirus Disease 2019 (COVID-19) resulting from infection with severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus-2 (SARS-CoV-2).

EGFR-related lung cancer Pathogenic:1
Jul 30, 2024
Labcorp Genetics (formerly Invitae), Labcorp
Significance:Likely pathogenic
Review Status:criteria provided, single submitter
Collection Method:clinical testing

This sequence change affects a donor splice site in intron 17 of the EGFR gene. It is expected to disrupt RNA splicing. Variants that disrupt the donor or acceptor splice site typically lead to a loss of protein function (PMID: 16199547), and loss-of-function variants in EGFR are known to be pathogenic (PMID: 7630400, 28726809, 29899996). This variant is not present in population databases (gnomAD no frequency). This variant has not been reported in the literature in individuals affected with EGFR-related conditions. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 135516). Algorithms developed to predict the effect of sequence changes on RNA splicing suggest that this variant may disrupt the consensus splice site. 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.

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

The c.2061+2T>C intronic variant results from a T to C substitution two nucleotides after coding exon 17 in the EGFR gene. This nucleotide position is well conserved in available vertebrate species. In silico splice site analysis predicts that this alteration may weaken the native splice donor site. Alterations that disrupt the canonical splice site are expected to cause aberrant splicing, resulting in an abnormal protein or a transcript that is subject to nonsense-mediated mRNA decay; however, +2T>C alterations are capable of generating wild-type transcripts in some genomic contexts and should be interpreted with caution (Lin JH et al. Hum Mutat. 2019 10;40:1856-1873). Based on the available evidence, the clinical significance of this alteration remains unclear.
