Genes affected

CDH1 (HGNC:1748): (cadherin 1) This gene encodes a classical cadherin of the cadherin superfamily. Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants, at least one of which encodes a preproprotein that is proteolytically processed to generate the mature glycoprotein. This calcium-dependent cell-cell adhesion protein is comprised of five extracellular cadherin repeats, a transmembrane region and a highly conserved cytoplasmic tail. Mutations in this gene are correlated with gastric, breast, colorectal, thyroid and ovarian cancer. Loss of function of this gene is thought to contribute to cancer progression by increasing proliferation, invasion, and/or metastasis. The ectodomain of this protein mediates bacterial adhesion to mammalian cells and the cytoplasmic domain is required for internalization. This gene is present in a gene cluster with other members of the cadherin family on chromosome 16. [provided by RefSeq, Nov 2015]

Hereditary diffuse gastric adenocarcinoma Pathogenic:3

Nov 11, 2024

Labcorp Genetics (formerly Invitae), Labcorp

Significance: Pathogenic

Review Status: criteria provided, single submitter

Collection Method: clinical testing

This sequence change creates a premature translational stop signal (p.Arg74*) in the CDH1 gene. It is expected to result in an absent or disrupted protein product. Loss-of-function variants in CDH1 are known to be pathogenic (PMID: 15235021, 20373070). This variant is not present in population databases (gnomAD no frequency). This variant has not been reported in the literature in individuals affected with CDH1-related conditions. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 239891). For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. -

Color Diagnostics, LLC DBA Color Health

Significance: Pathogenic

Review Status: criteria provided, single submitter

Collection Method: clinical testing

This variant changes 1 nucleotide in exon 3 of the CDH1 gene, creating a premature translation stop signal. This variant is expected to result in an absent or non-functional protein product. This variant has not been identified in the general population by the Genome Aggregation Database (gnomAD). Loss of CDH1 function is a known mechanism of disease (clinicalgenome.org). Based on the available evidence, this variant is classified as Pathogenic. -

Significance: Pathogenic

Review Status: criteria provided, single submitter

Collection Method: clinical testing

The p.R74* pathogenic mutation (also known as c.220C>T), located in coding exon 3 of the CDH1 gene, results from a C to T substitution at nucleotide position 220. This changes the amino acid from an arginine to a stop codon within coding exon 3. This mutation was detected in a patient with gastric cancer diagnosed at age 41 (Llach J et al. Cancers (Basel), 2020 Aug;12). In one study, this variant was observed in 1/7,051 unselected female breast cancer patients and 0/11,241 female controls of Japanese ancestry (Momozawa Y et al. Nat Commun, 2018 10;9:4083). In another study, this variant was reported in 1/60,466 breast cancer cases and in 0/53,461 controls (Dorling et al. N Engl J Med. 2021 02;384:428-439). This variant is considered to be rare based on population cohorts in the Genome Aggregation Database (gnomAD). In addition to the clinical data presented in the literature, this alteration is expected to result in loss of function by premature protein truncation or nonsense-mediated mRNA decay. As such, this alteration is interpreted as a disease-causing mutation. -
