The variant received 0 classification points (ACGS-UK Somatic Oncogenicity v2025).

The NM_001754.5(RUNX1):c.*3580T>G variant causes a 3 prime UTR change involving the alteration of a non-conserved nucleotide. The gene RUNX1 is a tumor suppressor gene (CancerMine: 63 TSG, 111 oncogene, 87 driver citations). The gene RUNX1 is a known oncogene (CancerMine: 63 TSG, 111 oncogene, 87 driver citations). The gene RUNX1 is a cancer driver gene (CancerMine: 63 TSG, 111 oncogene, 87 driver citations). The variant allele was found at a cumulative frequency of 0.000309 (AC=72) in the gnomAD database across 233,078 control chromosomes (no homozygotes observed). The grpmax filtering allele frequency (95% CI) is 0.00013. In-silico predictor (BayesDel (noAF)) classifies this variant as likely benign. Splicing prediction tools (SpliceAI) predict no significant impact on normal splicing. Variant has been reported in ClinVar as Benign/Likely Benign (★★★).

Genes affected

RUNX1 (HGNC:10471): (RUNX family transcription factor 1) Core binding factor (CBF) is a heterodimeric transcription factor that binds to the core element of many enhancers and promoters. The protein encoded by this gene represents the alpha subunit of CBF and is thought to be involved in the development of normal hematopoiesis. Chromosomal translocations involving this gene are well-documented and have been associated with several types of leukemia. Three transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been found for this gene. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]
