Genes affected

CASP9 (HGNC:1511): (caspase 9) This gene encodes a member of the cysteine-aspartic acid protease (caspase) family. Sequential activation of caspases plays a central role in the execution-phase of cell apoptosis. Caspases exist as inactive proenzymes which undergo proteolytic processing at conserved aspartic residues to produce two subunits, large and small, that dimerize to form the active enzyme. This protein can undergo autoproteolytic processing and activation by the apoptosome, a protein complex of cytochrome c and the apoptotic peptidase activating factor 1; this step is thought to be one of the earliest in the caspase activation cascade. This protein is thought to play a central role in apoptosis and to be a tumor suppressor. Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants. [provided by RefSeq, May 2013]

ACMG classification

Verdict is Uncertain_significance. Variant got 0 ACMG points.

The c.770C>T (p.P257L) alteration is located in exon 6 (coding exon 6) of the CASP9 gene. This alteration results from a C to T substitution at nucleotide position 770, causing the proline (P) at amino acid position 257 to be replaced by a leucine (L). Based on insufficient or conflicting evidence, the clinical significance of this alteration remains unclear. -
