Genes affected
TP53 (HGNC:11998): (tumor protein p53) This gene encodes a tumor suppressor protein containing transcriptional activation, DNA binding, and oligomerization domains. The encoded protein responds to diverse cellular stresses to regulate expression of target genes, thereby inducing cell cycle arrest, apoptosis, senescence, DNA repair, or changes in metabolism. Mutations in this gene are associated with a variety of human cancers, including hereditary cancers such as Li-Fraumeni syndrome. Alternative splicing of this gene and the use of alternate promoters result in multiple transcript variants and isoforms. Additional isoforms have also been shown to result from the use of alternate translation initiation codons from identical transcript variants (PMIDs: 12032546, 20937277).

This sequence change replaces arginine, which is basic and polar, with histidine, which is basic and polar, at codon 337 of the TP53 protein (p.Arg337His). This variant is present in population databases (rs121912664, gnomAD 0.006%). This missense change has been observed in individual(s) with multiple types of cancer (PMID: 10864200, 16033918, 16494995, 21192060, 23733769). It has also been observed to segregate with disease in related individuals. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 12379). Invitae Evidence Modeling incorporating data from in vitro experimental studies (PMID: 12826609, 29979965, 30224644) did not meet the statistical confidence thresholds required to predict the impact of this variant on TP53 function. Experimental studies have shown that this missense change affects TP53 function (PMID: 9704930, 12826609, 20407015). This variant disrupts the p.Arg337 amino acid residue in TP53. Other variant(s) that disrupt this residue have been determined to be pathogenic (PMID: 9704931, 20407015). This suggests that this residue is clinically significant, and that variants that disrupt this residue are likely to be disease-causing. For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic.

The p.Arg337His variant in TP53 has been reported in numerous individuals with Li-Fraumeni syndrome and is thought to be a founder allele in Southern Brazil (Achatz 2016, Andrade 2016, Borges 2016). Although cancers associated with this allele tend to occur at a later age compared to other pathogenic variants in TP53, the lifetime risk seems to be similar to other LFS-associated TP53 variants (Garritano 2010). This variant has also been reported in ClinVar (Variation ID 12379). It has been identified in 0.007% (2/24544) of Latino chromosomes by gnomAD (http://gnomad.broadinstitute.org). Additional variants involving this codon (p.Arg337Cys, p.Arg337Leu) have been identified in individuals with cancer and are classified as likely pathogenic/pathogenic by clinical laboratories in ClinVar. In summary, this variant meets criteria to be classified as pathogenic for autosomal dominant Li-Fraumeni syndrome. ACMG/AMP Criteria applied: PM2, PS4, PP1_strong, PP3, PM5.

This missense variant replaces arginine with histidine at codon 337 in the tetramerization domain of the TP53 protein. Computational prediction tool is inconclusive regarding the impact of this variant on protein structure and function (internally defined REVEL score threshold 0.5 < inconclusive < 0.7, PMID: 27666373). Functional studies have shown that the variant protein impacted protein stability and tetramerization, however, this defect may appear mild in some transactivation and growth inhibition assays (PMID: 9582268, 12826609, 20407015, 30224644; and IARC database). This variant is known to be a Brazilian founder mutation and observed in approximately 0.3% of the population in southern Brazil (PMID: 24936644, 27663983). This variant has been reported in numerous Brazilian individuals and families affected with Li-Fraumeni syndrome meeting Chompret criteria (PMID: 10864200, 16033918, 21192060, 27714481), Li-Fraumeni-like syndrome (PMID: 16494995), and early-onset breast cancer (PMID: 19046423, 22455664, 27223487). Studies of families carrying this variant have shown extremely variable cancer risk in individuals and identified several unaffected adult carriers, suggesting age-dependent (and possibly incomplete) penetrance of this variant (PMID: 19717094). This variant has been identified in 3/250846 chromosomes in the general population by the Genome Aggregation Database (gnomAD). Different missense variants occurring at the same codon (p.Arg337Cys, p.Arg337Leu and p.Arg337Pro) have been reported as disease-causing in ClinVar (variation ID: 142536, 142828, 177879), suggesting that arginine at this position is important for TP53 function. Based on the available evidence, this variant is classified as Pathogenic.

The frequency of this variant in the general population, 0.000012 (3/250846 chromosomes, http://gnomad.broadinstitute.org), is uninformative in assessment of its pathogenicity. In the published literature, the variant has been reported as a Brazilian founder mutation associated with reduced penetrance, carrying a lower cancer risk than other TP53 pathogenic variants (PMID: 33300245 (2021), 31744167 (2019), 19877175 (2009)). It has been reported in up to 0.2 to 0.3% of the Brazilian population (PMID: 32592449 (2049), 19717094 (2009)). This variant has been seen in individuals with breast cancer (PMID: 32986223 (2021), 32039725 (2020), 30596752 (2018), 22455664 (2012)), Li-Fraumeni or Li-Fraumeni-like syndrome (PMID: 30107858 (2018), 29392648 (2018), 28756477 (2018), 21192060 (2011)), and children with adrenocortical tumors (ACT) (PMID: 32156018 (2020), 31744167 (2019), 16033918 (2006), 16033918 (2006), 15121773 (2004), 11481490 (2001)). Some published functional studies are conflicting, but the majority have found that this variant causes a partial or conditional damaging effect on TP53 function (PMID: 35367578 (2022), 33637564 (2021), 30042151 (2018), 28369373 (2017), 23056559 (2012), 21343334 (2011), 20407015 (2010), 12826609 (2003), 11753428 (2002), 9704930 (1998)). Based on the available information, this variant is classified as a pathogenic variant with reduced penetrance.

The p.R337H pathogenic mutation (also known as c.1010G>A) is located in coding exon 9 of the TP53 gene. This alteration results from a G to A substitution at nucleotide position 1010. The arginine at codon 337 is replaced by histidine, an amino acid with highly similar properties. There currently exists a relatively extensive body of literature regarding this alteration. It has been detected at high frequency in Brazilian LFS families and is highly associated with a common haplotype, providing strong evidence of a founder effect in this population (Garritano et al. Hum Mutat. 2010 Feb;31(2):143-50). Ribeiro and colleagues described p.R337H as a low-penetrance mutation, primarily associated with adrenal cortical tumor risk in childhood; another study identified this mutation at a high (12.1%) frequency in Brazilian women with early-onset breast cancer (Ribeiro RC et al. Proc Natl Acad Sci U S A. 2001 Jul 31;98(16):9330-5; Giacomazzi J et al, PLoS ONE 2014 ; 9(6):e99893). Other studies have led authors to conclude that the lifetime cancer risks for carriers of this mutation are similar to those of other LFS families, although p.R337H-associated cancers tend to occur with a later age of onset (Garritano et al. Hum Mutat. 2010 Feb;31(2):143-50). Families with this mutation have been reported with a wide spectrum of tumors including, but not limited to, breast cancers, brain cancers, soft tissue sarcomas, and adrenocortical carcinoma (Achatz et al. Cancer Lett. 2007 Jan 8;245(1-2):96-102; Borges LM and Avres FM. Genet Mol Res. 2015 Dec 16;14(4):17034-43; IARC Database http://www-p53.iarc.fr/; Andrade RC et al. Fam. Cancer. 2017 Apr;16(2):243-248; Zerdoumi Y et al. Hum. Mol. Genet. 2017 Jul;26(14):2812). One functional study demonstrated that the reduction in transcriptional activity and DNA binding resulting from this amino acid substitution is similar to that observed in null mutations (Zerdoumi Y et al. Hum. Mol. Genet. 2017 Jul;26(14):2812). In addition, this amino acid substitution occurs within the protein tetramerization domain and alters the ability of p53 to form stabilizing oligomers with high DNA-binding capacity in cells with elevated pH levels. This pH dependence may explain the incomplete penetrance observed in many families carrying the p.R337H mutation and has led to the hypothesis that p.R337H is a conditional mutant (DiGiammarino et al. Nat Struct Biol. 2002, 9:12-6; Giacomazzi J, et al. BMC Cancer 2013 Apr;13(1):187). Given the inter-familial variability in penetrance and tumor patterns described to date, some have suggested that surveillance recommendations for p.R337H carriers should be based on family cancer history (Palmero et al. Cancer Lett. 2008 Mar 8;261(1):21-5). Based on the available evidence, p.R337H is classified as a pathogenic mutation.

This missense variant replaces arginine with histidine at codon 337 in the tetramerization domain of the TP53 protein. Computational prediction tool is inconclusive regarding the impact of this variant on protein structure and function. Functional studies have shown that the variant protein impacted protein stability and tetramerization, however, this defect may appear mild in some transactivation and growth inhibition assays (PMID: 9582268, 12826609, 20407015, 30224644; and IARC database). This variant is known to be a Brazilian founder mutation and observed in approximately 0.3% of the population in southern Brazil (PMID: 24936644, 27663983). This variant has been reported in numerous Brazilian individuals and families affected with Li-Fraumeni syndrome meeting Chompret criteria (PMID: 10864200, 16033918, 21192060, 27714481), Li-Fraumeni-like syndrome (PMID: 16494995), and early-onset breast cancer (PMID: 19046423, 22455664, 27223487). Studies of families carrying this variant have shown extremely variable cancer risk in individuals and identified several unaffected adult carriers, suggesting age-dependent (and possibly incomplete) penetrance of this variant (PMID: 19717094). This variant has been identified in 3/250846 chromosomes in the general population by the Genome Aggregation Database (gnomAD). Different missense variants occurring at the same codon (p.Arg337Cys, p.Arg337Leu and p.Arg337Pro) have been reported as disease-causing in ClinVar (variation ID: 142536, 142828, 177879), suggesting that arginine at this position is important for TP53 function. Based on the available evidence, this variant is classified as Pathogenic.

c.1010G>A, located in exon 10 of the TP53 gene, is predicted to result in the substitution of Arginine by Histidine at codon 337, p.(Arg337His). This variant is found in 1/236428 alleles at a frequency of 0.0004% in the gnomAD v2.1.1 database, non-cancer dataset. The SpliceAI algorithm predicts no significant impact on splicing. This variant has a BayesDel score 0.17 and Align GVGD (Zebrafish) is Class C0. Transactivation assays show a partially function allele according to Kato 2003 (PMID: 12826609) and there is a second assay showing low function (tetramer assay, PMID: 18940924) (PS3_Moderate). At least, this variant has been reported in 33 Chompret individuals, which awards 16 points to this variant as per ClinGen SVI Recommendation for LFS/Chompret Criterion (PMID: 10864200, 16933305, 18270399, 21630152, 21440489, 22619358, 28453760, 30147334, among others) (PS4). It has been observed cosegregation (7 meiosis) in three families (PMID: 11521785, 27101110, 29956451) (PP1_Strong). In addition, this variant has been identified de novo in 4 individuals (PMID: 27601191, 27101110, 32292755) (PM6_Very Strong). The variant is present in >3 living unaffected individuals above 55 years of age (PMID: 17940213, 18373486) (BS4). This variant is a founder in Brasil. It has been reported in ClinVar (15x as pathogenic, 1x as likely pathogenic), LOVD (2x as pathogenic, 2x NA), CancerHotspots (4 somatic observations). Based on the currently available information, c.1010G>A is classified as a pathogenic variant according to ClinGen-TP53 Guidelines version 1.4.

Known Brazilian founder Mutation with reduced penetrance for LFS. The p.Arg337His variant in TP53 has been reported in numerous individuals with Li-Fraumeni syndrome and is thought to be a founder allele in Southern Brazil (Achatz 2016, Andrade 2016, Borges 2016). Although cancers associated with this allele tend to occur at a later age compared to other pathogenic variants in TP53, the lifetime risk seems to be similar to other LFS-associated TP53 variants (Garritano 2010) It has been detected at high frequency in Brazilian LFS families and is highly associated with a common haplotype, providing strong evidence of a founder effect in this population (Garritano et al. Hum Mutat. 2010 Feb;31(2):143-50). Ribeiro and colleagues described p.R337H as a low-penetrance mutation, primarily associated with adrenal cortical tumor risk in childhood; another study identified this mutation at a high (12.1%) frequency in Brazilian women with early-onset breast cancer (Ribeiro RC et al. Proc Natl Acad Sci U S A. 2001 Jul 31;98(16):9330-5; Giacomazzi J et al, PLoS ONE 2014 ; 9(6):e99893).
