Genes affected

TERT (HGNC:11730): (telomerase reverse transcriptase) Telomerase is a ribonucleoprotein polymerase that maintains telomere ends by addition of the telomere repeat TTAGGG. The enzyme consists of a protein component with reverse transcriptase activity, encoded by this gene, and an RNA component which serves as a template for the telomere repeat. Telomerase expression plays a role in cellular senescence, as it is normally repressed in postnatal somatic cells resulting in progressive shortening of telomeres. Deregulation of telomerase expression in somatic cells may be involved in oncogenesis. Studies in mouse suggest that telomerase also participates in chromosomal repair, since de novo synthesis of telomere repeats may occur at double-stranded breaks. Alternatively spliced variants encoding different isoforms of telomerase reverse transcriptase have been identified; the full-length sequence of some variants has not been determined. Alternative splicing at this locus is thought to be one mechanism of regulation of telomerase activity. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]

Review Status: no assertion criteria provided

Collection Method: clinical testing

The TERT c.1393G>C variant is predicted to result in the amino acid substitution p.Val465Leu. To our knowledge, this variant has not been reported in the literature. This variant is reported in 0.15% of alleles in individuals of East Asian descent in gnomAD (http://gnomad.broadinstitute.org/variant/5-1293608-C-G). It has conflicting interpretations in ClinVar of likely benign and uncertain significance (https://preview.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/clinvar/variation/539202/). Although we suspect that this variant may be benign, at this time, the clinical significance of this variant is uncertain due to the absence of conclusive functional and genetic evidence. -
