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]

ACMG classification

Verdict is Uncertain_significance. Variant got 3 ACMG points.

• PM2: Very rare variant in population databases, with high coverage
• PP2: Missense variant in the SMAD4 gene, where missense mutations are typically associated with disease (based on misZ statistic). The gene has 36 curated pathogenic missense variants (we use a threshold of 10). The gene has 52 curated benign missense variants. Gene score misZ: 4.1308 (above the threshold of 3.09). Trascript score misZ: 4.9346 (above the threshold of 3.09). GenCC associations: The gene is linked to familial thoracic aortic aneurysm and aortic dissection, generalized juvenile polyposis/juvenile polyposis coli, hereditary hemorrhagic telangiectasia, Myhre syndrome, pulmonary arterial hypertension, juvenile polyposis/hereditary hemorrhagic telangiectasia syndrome, juvenile polyposis syndrome.

Significance: Uncertain significance

Review Status: criteria provided, single submitter

Collection Method: clinical testing

The p.N263K variant (also known as c.789C>G), located in coding exon 6 of the SMAD4 gene, results from a C to G substitution at nucleotide position 789. The asparagine at codon 263 is replaced by lysine, an amino acid with similar properties. This amino acid position is highly conserved in available vertebrate species. In addition, this alteration is predicted to be tolerated by in silico analysis. Since supporting evidence is limited at this time, the clinical significance of this alteration remains unclear. -

Color Diagnostics, LLC DBA Color Health

Significance: Uncertain significance

Review Status: criteria provided, single submitter

Collection Method: clinical testing

This missense variant replaces asparagine with lysine at codon 263 of the SMAD4 protein. Computational prediction suggests that this variant may not impact protein structure and function (internally defined REVEL score threshold <= 0.5, PMID: 27666373). To our knowledge, functional studies have not been reported for this variant. This variant has not been reported in individuals affected with SMAD4-related disorders in the literature. This variant has not been identified in the general population by the Genome Aggregation Database (gnomAD). The available evidence is insufficient to determine the role of this variant in disease conclusively. Therefore, this variant is classified as a Variant of Uncertain Significance. -

Significance: Uncertain significance

Review Status: criteria provided, single submitter

Collection Method: clinical testing

This sequence change replaces asparagine, which is neutral and polar, with lysine, which is basic and polar, at codon 263 of the SMAD4 protein (p.Asn263Lys). This variant is not present in population databases (gnomAD no frequency). This variant has not been reported in the literature in individuals affected with SMAD4-related conditions. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 827317). 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 tolerated. 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. -
