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]

Review Status:criteria provided, single submitter

Collection Method:clinical testing

Variant summary: PTEN c.79+7A>G alters a non-conserved nucleotide located close to a canonical splice site and therefore could affect mRNA splicing, leading to a significantly altered protein sequence. 5/5 computational tools predict no significant impact on normal splicing. One publication reports that sequencing of cDNA from patient lymphoblast cell lines with the variant resulted in no detecatble aberrations in splicing (Chen_2017). The variant allele was found at a frequency of 1.2e-05 in 251482 control chromosomes (gnomAD). The available data on variant occurrences in the general population are insufficient to allow any conclusion about variant significance. c.79+7A>G has been reported in the literature in individuals affected with Cowden Syndrome without strong evidence for causality (e.g. Pilarski_2011, Chen_2017). These reports do not provide unequivocal conclusions about association of the variant with Cowden Syndrome. Five laboratories have submitted clinical-significance assessments for this variant to ClinVar (evaluation after 2014) with conflicting interpretations: two laboratories cited the variant as likely benign, two cited the variant as uncertain significance, and one cited the variant as pathogenic. Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as likely benign. -
