Genes affected

MEN1 (HGNC:7010): (menin 1) This gene encodes menin, a tumor suppressor associated with a syndrome known as multiple endocrine neoplasia type 1. Menin is a scaffold protein that functions in histone modification and epigenetic gene regulation. It is thought to regulate several pathways and processes by altering chromatin structure through the modification of histones. [provided by RefSeq, May 2019]

ACMG classification

Our verdict: Likely_pathogenic. The variant received 6 ACMG points.

• PM2: Very rare variant in population databases, with high coverage
• PP2: Missense variant in the MEN1 gene, where missense mutations are typically associated with disease (based on misZ statistic). The gene has 113 curated pathogenic missense variants (we use a threshold of 10). The gene has 20 curated benign missense variants. Trascript score misZ: 4.1921 (above the threshold of 3.09). GenCC associations: The gene is linked to multiple endocrine neoplasia type 1, hereditary pheochromocytoma-paraganglioma, pituitary gigantism, familial isolated hyperparathyroidism.
• PP3: MetaRNN computational evidence supports a deleterious effect, 0.932
• PP5: Variant 11-64804437-A-G is Pathogenic according to our data. Variant chr11-64804437-A-G is described in ClinVar as Conflicting_classifications_of_pathogenicity. ClinVar VariationId is 200991.

Significance: Likely pathogenic

Collection Method: clinical testing

The L577P variant has not been published as a pathogenic variant, nor has it been reported as a benign polymorphism to our knowledge. The L577P variant was not observed in approximately 6,500 individuals of European and African American ancestry in the NHLBI Exome Sequencing Project, indicating it is not a common benign variant in these populations. L577P is a semi-conservative amino acid substitution, which may impact secondary protein structure as these residues differ in some properties. A missense variant in nearby residue (L579P) have been reported in the literature in association with MEN1. This substitution occurs at a position that is conserved across species, and in silico analysis predicts this variant is probably damaging to the protein structure/function. Based on currently available evidence, L577P is a strong candidate for a pathogenic variant. However, the possibility it may be a rare benign variant cannot be excluded. -

Collection Method: clinical testing

The p.L577P variant (also known as c.1730T>C), located in coding exon 9 of the MEN1 gene, results from a T to C substitution at nucleotide position 1730. The leucine at codon 577 is replaced by proline, an amino acid with similar properties. This variant was reported in individual(s) with features consistent with Multiple Endocrine Neoplasia Type 1 (MEN1) (Ambry internal data; external communication). This amino acid position is highly conserved in available vertebrate species. In addition, this alteration is predicted to be deleterious by in silico analysis. Based on internal structural analysis, this variant results in a decrease in structural stability (Huang J et al., Nature 2012 Feb; 482(7386):542-6). This variant is considered to be rare based on population cohorts in the Genome Aggregation Database (gnomAD). Based on the majority of available evidence to date, this variant is likely to be pathogenic. -

Significance: Uncertain significance

Review Status: criteria provided, single submitter

Collection Method: clinical testing

This sequence change replaces leucine with proline at codon 577 of the MEN1 protein (p.Leu577Pro). The leucine residue is highly conserved and there is a moderate physicochemical difference between leucine and proline. 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. Advanced modeling of protein sequence and biophysical properties (such as structural, functional, and spatial information, amino acid conservation, physicochemical variation, residue mobility, and thermodynamic stability) performed at Invitae indicates that this missense variant is expected to disrupt MEN1 protein function. This variant has not been reported in the literature in individuals with MEN1-related conditions. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 200991). This variant is not present in population databases (ExAC no frequency). -
