Genes affected

PTEN (HGNC:9588): (phosphatase and tensin homolog) This gene was identified as a tumor suppressor that is mutated in a large number of cancers at high frequency. The protein encoded by this gene is a phosphatidylinositol-3,4,5-trisphosphate 3-phosphatase. It contains a tensin like domain as well as a catalytic domain similar to that of the dual specificity protein tyrosine phosphatases. Unlike most of the protein tyrosine phosphatases, this protein preferentially dephosphorylates phosphoinositide substrates. It negatively regulates intracellular levels of phosphatidylinositol-3,4,5-trisphosphate in cells and functions as a tumor suppressor by negatively regulating AKT/PKB signaling pathway. The use of a non-canonical (CUG) upstream initiation site produces a longer isoform that initiates translation with a leucine, and is thought to be preferentially associated with the mitochondrial inner membrane. This longer isoform may help regulate energy metabolism in the mitochondria. A pseudogene of this gene is found on chromosome 9. Alternative splicing and the use of multiple translation start codons results in multiple transcript variants encoding different isoforms. [provided by RefSeq, Feb 2015]

ACMG classification

Our verdict: Pathogenic. The variant received 11 ACMG points.

• PM1: In a hotspot region, there are 14 aminoacids with missense pathogenic changes in the window of +-8 aminoacids around while only 1 benign, 37 uncertain in NM_000314.8
• PM2: Very rare variant in population databases, with high coverage
• PM5: Other missense variant is known to change same aminoacid residue: Variant chr10-87931049-T-G is described in ClinVar as Conflicting_classifications_of_pathogenicity. ClinVar VariationId is 820795.
• PP2: Missense variant in the PTEN gene, where missense mutations are typically associated with disease (based on misZ statistic). The gene has 209 curated pathogenic missense variants (we use a threshold of 10). The gene has 22 curated benign missense variants. Gene score misZ: 3.4883 (above the threshold of 3.09). Trascript score misZ: 4.1129 (above the threshold of 3.09). GenCC associations: The gene is linked to leiomyosarcoma, renal cell carcinoma, Cowden syndrome 1, macrocephaly-autism syndrome, glioma susceptibility 2, PTEN hamartoma tumor syndrome, Cowden disease, Bannayan-Riley-Ruvalcaba syndrome, Proteus-like syndrome, Lhermitte-Duclos disease, activated PI3K-delta syndrome.
• PP3: MetaRNN computational evidence supports a deleterious effect, 0.968

This sequence change replaces cysteine, which is neutral and slightly polar, with serine, which is neutral and polar, at codon 71 of the PTEN protein (p.Cys71Ser). This variant is not present in population databases (gnomAD no frequency). This variant has not been reported in the literature in individuals affected with PTEN-related conditions. An algorithm developed to predict the effect of missense changes on protein structure and function (PolyPhen-2) suggests that this variant is likely to be disruptive. Experimental studies are conflicting or provide insufficient evidence to determine the effect of this variant on PTEN function (PMID: 24292679, 25504433, 26415504). This variant disrupts the p.Cys71 amino acid residue in PTEN. Other variant(s) that disrupt this residue have been determined to be pathogenic (internal data). This suggests that this residue is clinically significant, and that variants that disrupt this residue are likely to be disease-causing. In summary, the available evidence is currently insufficient to determine the role of this variant in disease. Therefore, it has been classified as a Variant of Uncertain Significance.
