Genes affected
GATA2 (HGNC:4171): (GATA binding protein 2) This gene encodes a member of the GATA family of zinc-finger transcription factors that are named for the consensus nucleotide sequence they bind in the promoter regions of target genes. The encoded protein plays an essential role in regulating transcription of genes involved in the development and proliferation of hematopoietic and endocrine cell lineages. Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants.[provided by RefSeq, Mar 2009]

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

The p.A342T variant (also known as c.1024G>A), located in coding exon 4 of the GATA2 gene, results from a G to A substitution at nucleotide position 1024. The alanine at codon 342 is replaced by threonine, an amino acid with similar properties. This alteration was detected in the germline of a pediatric patient with AML (Shiba N et al. Br J Haematol, 2014 Jan;164:142-5). This amino acid position is highly conserved in available vertebrate species. In addition, the in silico prediction for this alteration is inconclusive. Based on the available evidence, the clinical significance of this variant remains unclear. -

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

This sequence change replaces alanine, which is neutral and non-polar, with threonine, which is neutral and polar, at codon 342 of the GATA2 protein (p.Ala342Thr). This variant is present in population databases (rs751285156, gnomAD 0.006%). This missense change has been observed in individual(s) with acute myeloid leukemia (PMID: 24033149). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 652480). Invitae Evidence Modeling of protein sequence and biophysical properties (such as structural, functional, and spatial information, amino acid conservation, physicochemical variation, residue mobility, and thermodynamic stability) has been performed for this missense variant. However, the output from this modeling did not meet the statistical confidence thresholds required to predict the impact of this variant on GATA2 protein function. 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. -

Deafness-lymphedema-leukemia syndrome Uncertain:1
Jun 26, 2024
Clinical Genomics Laboratory, Washington University in St. Louis
Significance:Uncertain significance
Review Status:criteria provided, single submitter
Collection Method:clinical testing

A GATA2 c.1024G>A (p.Ala342Thr) variant was identified at a near heterozygous allelic fraction of 48.8%, a frequency which may be consistent with it being of germline origin. This variant has been reported in a germline state in a patient with de novo pediatric acute myeloid leukemia (Shiba N et al., PMID: 24033149). This variant is observed on 35/1,613,364 alleles in the general population (gnomAD v4.1.0). Computational predictors are uncertain as to the impact of this variant on GATA2 function. Due to limited information and based on ACMG/AMP guidelines for variant interpretation (Richards S et al., PMID: 25741868), the clinical significance of this variant is uncertain at this time. -
