Genes affected
PTPN11 (HGNC:9644): (protein tyrosine phosphatase non-receptor type 11) The protein encoded by this gene is a member of the protein tyrosine phosphatase (PTP) family. PTPs are known to be signaling molecules that regulate a variety of cellular processes including cell growth, differentiation, mitotic cycle, and oncogenic transformation. This PTP contains two tandem Src homology-2 domains, which function as phospho-tyrosine binding domains and mediate the interaction of this PTP with its substrates. This PTP is widely expressed in most tissues and plays a regulatory role in various cell signaling events that are important for a diversity of cell functions, such as mitogenic activation, metabolic control, transcription regulation, and cell migration. Mutations in this gene are a cause of Noonan syndrome as well as acute myeloid leukemia. [provided by RefSeq, Aug 2016]

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

A Heterozygous Missense variant c.124A>G in Exon 2 of the PTPN11 gene that results in the amino acid substitution p.Thr42Ala was identified. The observed variant has a minor allele frequency of 0% in gnomAD exomes and genomes, respectively. The severity of the impact of this variant on the protein is medium, based on the effect of the protein and REVEL score. Rare Exome Variant Ensemble Learner (REVEL) is an ensembl method for predicting the pathogenicity of missense variants based on a combination of scores from 13 individual tools: MutPred, FATHMM v2.3, VEST 3.0, PolyPhen-2, SIFT, PROVEAN, MutationAssessor, MutationTaster, LRT, GERP++, SiPhy, phyloP, and phastCons. The REVEL score for an individual missense variant can range from 0 to 1, with higher scores reflecting greater likelihood that the variant is disease-causing. This variant has previously reported for patients with RASopathies by Digilio MC, et, al., 2012. Functional studies showed increased phosphopeptide binding affinity and dephosphorylation (Martinelli S et al.,2008.) ClinVar has also classified this variant as Pathogenic (Variant ID: 40482). Based on the above evidence this variant has been classified as Pathogenic according to the ACMG guidelines. -

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

The de novo c.124A>G (p.Thr42Ala) variant identified in the PTPN11 gene substitutes a moderatley conserved Threonine for Alanine at amino acid 42/594 (exon 2/16). This variant is absent from gnomAD(v3.1.1) suggesting it is not a common benign variant in the populations represented in that database. The variant is predicted deleterious by multiple in silico prediction tools (CADD score = 25.3, REVEL score = 0.794). This variant is reported in ClinVar as Pathogenic (VarID: 40482), and has been reported in many individuals in the literature with Noonan syndrome [PMID:11992261, 15001945, 12960218, 29988639, 31560489, other]. Functional studies suggest that the p.Thr42Ala variant promotes increased phosphopeptide-binding affinity [PMID:18372317]. Given its presence de novo, absence in population databases, presence in multiple affected individuals in the literature, and functional studies suggesting a significant increase in phosphopeptide binding affinity, the c.124A>G (p.Thr42Ala) variant identified in the PTPN11 gene is reported as Pathogenic. -

The observed missense c.124A>G(p.Thr42Ala) variant in PTPN11 gene has been reported previously in multiple individuals affected with Noonan syndrome (Tamura A, et al., 2018; Digilio MC, et al., 2013; Tartaglia M, et al., 2006). Functional studies showed that this variant results in increased phosphopeptide binding affinity and dephosphorylation supporting the proposed molecular mechanism of its pathogenicity (Martinelli S, et al., 2008). The p.Thr42Ala variant is absent in gnomAD Exomes. This variant has been reported to the ClinVar database as Pathogenic (multiple submissions). Multiple lines of computational evidences (Polyphen - Possibly damaging, SIFT - Tolerated and MutationTaster - Disease causing) predict conflicting evidence on protein structure and function for this variant. The reference amino acid change at this position on PTPN11 gene is predicted as conserved by GERP++ and PhyloP across 100 vertebrates. The amino acid Thr at position 42 is changed to a Ala changing protein sequence and it might alter its composition and physico-chemical properties. For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. -

Published functional studies demonstrate a significant increase in phosphopeptide binding affinity without greatly altering binding specificity or secondary structure of the domain (Keilhack et al., 2005; Muller et al., 2013); Not observed at significant frequency in large population cohorts (gnomAD); The majority of missense variants in this gene are considered pathogenic (HGMD); In silico analysis supports that this missense variant has a deleterious effect on protein structure/function; This variant is associated with the following publications: (PMID: 16358218, 30417923, 30050098, 18372317, 23584145, 15987685, 25425531, 24803665, 21590266, 17661820, 28483241, 11992261, 22781091, 29988639, 29907801, 31219622, 31560489, 32164556, 31936901, 32668055, 29493581, 33258288, 32786180) -

The Thr42Ala variant in PTPN11 has been reported in 10 individuals in the litera ture (Tartaglia 2002, Sarkozy 2003, Zenker 2004, Lee 2007, Shaw 2007, Martinelli 2008, Digilio 2012) and one individual in our laboratory with clinical features of Noonan syndrome. This variant was reported to have occurred de novo in at le ast one of these individuals (Digilio 2012). In summary, this variant meets our criteria to be classified as pathogenic (http://pcpgm.partners.org/LMM). -

This sequence change replaces threonine, which is neutral and polar, with alanine, which is neutral and non-polar, at codon 42 of the PTPN11 protein (p.Thr42Ala). This variant is not present in population databases (gnomAD no frequency). This missense change has been observed in individuals with Noonan syndrome (PMID: 15001945, 16358218, 17661820, 21590266, 22781091). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 40482). Invitae Evidence Modeling incorporating data from in vitro experimental studies (internal data) indicates that this missense variant is expected to disrupt PTPN11 function with a positive predictive value of 95%. Experimental studies have shown that this missense change affects PTPN11 function (PMID: 15987685, 18372317, 23584145). For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. -

Variant summary: PTPN11 c.124A>G (p.Thr42Ala) results in a non-conservative amino acid change located in the SH2 domain of the encoded protein sequence. Four of five in-silico tools predict a damaging effect of the variant on protein function. The variant was absent in 246614 control chromosomes (gnomAD). c.124A>G has been reported in the literature in multiple individuals affected with Noonan Syndrome, including de novo cases (Tartaglia_2002, Sarkozy_2003, Zenker_2004, Lee_2007, VanTrier_2015, Tamura_2018, Ezquieta_2012). These data indicate that the variant is very likely to be associated with disease. This variant exhibits increased affinity for mono-Tyr(P) peptide and phosphopeptide (Keilhack_2005 and Martinelli_2008), which is believed to be one of the mechanisms of SHP2's functional dysregulation. Four ClinVar submissions from clinical diagnostic laboratories (evaluation after 2014) cites the variant as pathogenic. Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as pathogenic. -

The p.T42A pathogenic mutation (also known as c.124A>G), located in coding exon 2 of the PTPN11 gene, results from an A to G substitution at nucleotide position 124. The threonine at codon 42 is replaced by alanine, an amino acid with similar properties. This variant was reported in individual(s) with features consistent with Noonan syndrome; in at least one individual, it was determined to be de novo (Tartaglia M et al. Am. J. Hum. Genet., 2002 Jun;70:1555-63; Sarkozy A et al. J. Med. Genet., 2003 Sep;40:704-8; Zenker M et al. J. Pediatr., 2004 Mar;144:368-74; Lee ST et al. Clin. Genet., 2007 Aug;72:150-5; van Nierop JWI et al. Int. J. Pediatr. Otorhinolaryngol., 2017 Jun;97:228-234). In an assay testing PTPN11 function, this variant showed a functionally abnormal result (Martinelli S et al. Hum. Mol. Genet., 2008 Jul;17:2018-29). This amino acid position is highly conserved in available vertebrate species. In addition, this alteration is predicted to be deleterious by in silico analysis. This variant is considered to be rare based on population cohorts in the Genome Aggregation Database (gnomAD). Based on the supporting evidence, this variant is interpreted as a disease-causing mutation for PTPN11-related RASopathy; however, it is unlikely to be causative of metachondromatosis. -
