Genes affected
PRSS1 (HGNC:9475): (serine protease 1) This gene encodes a trypsinogen, which is a member of the trypsin family of serine proteases. This enzyme is secreted by the pancreas and cleaved to its active form in the small intestine. It is active on peptide linkages involving the carboxyl group of lysine or arginine. Mutations in this gene are associated with hereditary pancreatitis. This gene and several other trypsinogen genes are localized to the T cell receptor beta locus on chromosome 7.

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

The p.R122C pathogenic mutation (also known as c.364C>T), located in coding exon 3 of the PRSS1 gene, results from a C to T substitution at nucleotide position 364. The arginine at codon 122 is replaced by cysteine, an amino acid with highly dissimilar properties. This variant was first identified in two families with hereditary pancreatitis and was seen to have incomplete penetrance (Pfutzer R et al. Gut. 2002;50:271-272). One in vitro studied determined that this variant results in increased autoactivation and impaired autolysis of trypsinogen at a basic pH in the absence of calcium (Simon et al. J Biol Chem. 2002;277(7):5404-10). In addition, a study of 6 families with hereditary pancreatitis found that approximately 40% of the 22 carriers with this variant developed pancreatitis (de las Heras-Casta&ntilde;o et al. JOP. 2009; 10(3): 249-55). This amino acid position is not well conserved in available vertebrate species. In addition, this alteration is predicted to be deleterious by in silico analysis. Based on the supporting evidence, this variant is interpreted as a disease-causing mutation. -

This sequence change replaces arginine, which is basic and polar, with cysteine, which is neutral and slightly polar, at codon 122 of the PRSS1 protein (p.Arg122Cys). The frequency data for this variant in the population databases is considered unreliable, as metrics indicate poor data quality at this position in the gnomAD database. This missense change has been observed in individual(s) with hereditary pancreatitis (HP) and/or pancreatic cancer (PMID: 11719509, 11788572, 19454815, 24458023). It has also been observed to segregate with disease in related individuals. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 11883). Invitae Evidence Modeling of protein sequence and biophysical properties (such as structural, functional, and spatial information, amino acid conservation, physicochemical variation, residue mobility, and thermodynamic stability) indicates that this missense variant is not expected to disrupt PRSS1 protein function with a negative predictive value of 80%. Experimental studies have shown that this missense change affects PRSS1 function (PMID: 11719509, 22539344). This variant disrupts the p.Arg122 amino acid residue in PRSS1. Other variant(s) that disrupt this residue have been determined to be pathogenic (PMID: 8841182, 19453252). This suggests that this residue is clinically significant, and that variants that disrupt this residue are likely to be disease-causing. For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. -

The PRSS1 c.364C>T; p.Arg122Cys variant (rs111033568) is reported in multiple individuals diagnosed with pancreatitis (Le Marechal 2001, Pfutzer 2002). However, the variant shows incomplete penetrance, with approximately 40-50 percent of carriers developing pancreatic disease (de las Heras-Castano 2009, Simon 2002). This variant is also reported in ClinVar (Variation ID: 11883), and is found in the general population with an overall allele frequency of 0.0020% (5/251452 alleles) in the Genome Aggregation Database. Computational analyses are uncertain whether this variant is neutral or deleterious (REVEL: 0.515). Functional characterization indicates that the variant protein has increased auto-activation and enzymatic activity, and shows greater resistance to autolysis and inhibition (Simon 2002, Szabo 2012), consistent with the established disease mechanisms. Based on available information, the variant is considered to be pathogenic. References: de las Heras-Castano G et al.

Variant summary: PRSS1 c.364C>T (p.Arg122Cys) results in a non-conservative amino acid change located in the Serine proteases, trypsin domain of the encoded protein sequence. Four of five in-silico tools predict a damaging effect of the variant on protein function. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 2e-05 in 254704 control chromosomes. The available data on variant occurrences in the general population are insufficient to allow any conclusion about variant significance. c.364C>T has been reported in the literature in individuals affected with Chronic Pancreatitis (e.g. Pfutzer_2002, LeMarechal_2001, Simon_2002, Teich_2006, Sobczynska-Tomaszewska_2006, Wang_2013, Zou_2018), however with reduced penetrance. At least one publication reported experimental evidence evaluating an impact on protein function, and demonstrated that the variant slightly increased autoactivation and severely reduced chymotrypsin C (CTRC)-dependent degradation that is consistent with the mechanism of disease (Szabo_2012). Three clinical diagnostic laboratories have submitted clinical-significance assessments for this variant to ClinVar after 2014 without evidence for independent evaluation. All laboratories classified the variant as pathogenic. In this region other missense variants (p.A121T, p.R122H, and p.V123M) have also been reported in association with pancreatitis, suggesting importance of this region in PRSS1 function. Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as pathogenic. -

The PRSS1 c.364C>T variant is predicted to result in the amino acid substitution p.Arg122Cys. This variant, as well as an alternative substitution at the same amino acid position (p.Arg122His), has been reported to be causative for autosomal dominant hereditary chronic pancreatitis with penetrance of ~40-70% (Le Maréchal et al. 2001. PubMed ID:11734061; Simon et al. 2002 PubMed ID: 11719509; Pfützer et al. 2002 PubMed ID: 11788572; de las Heras-Castaño et al. 2009. PubMed ID: 19454815). A different substitution at the same amino acid position (p.Arg122His) has also been reported as pathogenic. This variant is reported in 0.0035% of alleles in individuals of European (Non-Finnish) descent in gnomAD. This variant is interpreted as pathogenic. -
