Genes affected
SMAD4 (HGNC:6770): (SMAD family member 4) This gene encodes a member of the Smad family of signal transduction proteins. Smad proteins are phosphorylated and activated by transmembrane serine-threonine receptor kinases in response to transforming growth factor (TGF)-beta signaling. The product of this gene forms homomeric complexes and heteromeric complexes with other activated Smad proteins, which then accumulate in the nucleus and regulate the transcription of target genes. This protein binds to DNA and recognizes an 8-bp palindromic sequence (GTCTAGAC) called the Smad-binding element (SBE). The protein acts as a tumor suppressor and inhibits epithelial cell proliferation. It may also have an inhibitory effect on tumors by reducing angiogenesis and increasing blood vessel hyperpermeability. The encoded protein is a crucial component of the bone morphogenetic protein signaling pathway. The Smad proteins are subject to complex regulation by post-translational modifications. Mutations or deletions in this gene have been shown to result in pancreatic cancer, juvenile polyposis syndrome, and hereditary hemorrhagic telangiectasia syndrome. [provided by RefSeq, May 2022]

Variant summary: The c.1140-10T>C variant affects a non-conserved intronic nucleotide. Mutation taster predicts benign outcome for this variant. 5/5 programs in Alamut predict that this variant does not affect normal splicing, however no functional studies supporting this notion were published at the time of evaluation. The variant is found in 66/120780 control chromosomes at a frequency of 0.0005464, which greatly exceeds the maximal expected frequency of a pathogenic allele (0.000002) in this gene, suggesting this variant is benign. In addition, independent clinical diagnostic laboratories classify the variant as Benign. The variant of interest has not, to our knowledge, been reported in affected individuals via publications and/or reputable databases/clinical laboratories. Based on the high prevalence of the variant in the general population, it was classified as Benign. -

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

This variant was observed in the ICSL laboratory as part of a predisposition screen in an ostensibly healthy population. It had not been previously curated by ICSL or reported in the Human Gene Mutation Database (HGMD: prior to June 1st, 2018), and was therefore a candidate for classification through an automated scoring system. Utilizing variant allele frequency, disease prevalence and penetrance estimates, and inheritance mode, an automated score was calculated to assess if this variant is too frequent to cause the disease. Based on the score and internal cut-off values, a variant classified as benign is not then subjected to further curation. The score for this variant resulted in a classification of benign for this disease. -

The c.1140-10T>C intronic variant results from a T to C substitution 10 nucleotides upstream from coding exon 9 in the SMAD4 gene. This variant was previously reported in the SNPDatabase as rs186332162. Based on data from the 1000 Genomes Project, the C allele has an overall frequency of approximately 0.1% (2/2098) total alleles studied. The highest observed frequency was 0.94% (1/106) African-American SW alleles. Based on data from the NHLBI Exome Sequencing Project (ESP), the C allele has an overall frequency of approximately 0.09% (12/13006) total alleles studied, having been observed in 0.25% (11/4406) African American alleles and 0.01% (1/8600) European American alleles. This nucleotide position is not well conserved in available vertebrate species. Using the BDGP and ESEfinder splice site prediction tools, this alteration is not predicted to have any significant effect on this acceptor/donor splice site; however, direct evidence is unavailable. Since supporting evidence is limited at this time, the clinical significance of this variant remains unclear. -
