Genes affected
PIK3CA (HGNC:8975): (phosphatidylinositol-4,5-bisphosphate 3-kinase catalytic subunit alpha) Phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase is composed of an 85 kDa regulatory subunit and a 110 kDa catalytic subunit. The protein encoded by this gene represents the catalytic subunit, which uses ATP to phosphorylate PtdIns, PtdIns4P and PtdIns(4,5)P2. This gene has been found to be oncogenic and has been implicated in cervical cancers. A pseudogene of this gene has been defined on chromosome 22. [provided by RefSeq, Apr 2016]

PIK3CA related overgrowth syndrome Pathogenic:2
Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingWomen's Health and Genetics/Laboratory Corporation of America, LabCorpJan 08, 2021Variant summary: PIK3CA c.1633G>A (p.Glu545Lys) results in a conservative amino acid change located in the Phosphoinositide 3-kinase, accessory (PIK) domain (IPR001263) of the encoded protein sequence. Three of five in-silico tools predict a damaging effect of the variant on protein function. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 4e-06 in 247990 control chromosomes (gnomAD). c.1633G>A has been reported in the literature in multiple individuals affected with PIK3CA-Associated Segmental Overgrowth spectrum disorders (example: Baptiste-Riviere_2013, DGama_2016, Kuentz_2017, Mirzaa_2016, Yates_2018). In several of these patients, the variant was described as a mosaic mutation. In addition, somatic occurrence of this variant was also reported in a number tumors including but not limited to Breast Cancer and Seborrheic Keratosis (example: Hafner_2010, Juric_2019). These data indicate that the variant is very likely to be associated with disease. Several reports suggest that this variant is a hot-spot mutation. Consistent with these reports in functional studies, the variant was found to have greater lipid kinase activities. In vitro cell line studies expressing the variant also demonstrate constitutive activation of downstream components of PI3K signaling pathway. In transformation assays using NIH 3T3 cells, the variant induced more foci than the wild-type (Ikenoue_2005). Several ClinVar submitters (evaluation after 2014) cite the variant as pathogenic/likely pathogenic in the context of germline and somatic origin. Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as pathogenic. -
Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingClinical Genomics Laboratory, Washington University in St. LouisNov 01, 2023The PIK3CA c.1633G>A (p.Glu545Lys) variant was identified at an allelic fraction consistent with somatic origin. This variant has been reported in numerous individuals affected with PIK3CA-Related Overgrowth Spectrum (PROS) disorders (Yeung KS et al., PMID: 28328134; Mirzaa G et al., PMID: 27631024; Keppler-Noreuil KM et al., PMID: 25557259; Keppler-Noreuil KM et al., PMID: 24782230; McNulty SN et al., PMID: 31585106; Luks VL et al., PMID: 25681199; Jansen LA et al., PMID: 25722288; Piacitelli AM et al., PMID: 30063105). It has been reported in multiple cases in the cancer database COSMIC (Genomic Mutation ID: COSV55873239), and it has been reported in the ClinVar database as a pathogenic/likely pathogenic variant by multiple submitters in both a germline and somatic state (ClinVar ID: 13655). Another variant in the same codon, PIK3CA c.1634A>C (p.Glu545Ala), has been reported in individuals with lymphatic malformation and is considered pathogenic (Osborn AJ et al., PMID: 25292196; ClinVar ID: 13659). The PIK3CA c.1633G>A (p.Glu545Lys) variant is absent from the general population (gnomAD v.3.1.2), indicating it is not a common variant. This variant resides within the helical domain of the p110⍺ catalytic subunit, amino acids 517-694, of PIK3CA that is defined as a critical functional domain, and constitutes a mutational hotspot (Madsen R et al., PMID: 30197175; Keppler-Noreuil KM et al., PMID: 25557259; Gymnopoulos M et al., PMID: 17376864). Computational predictors indicate that the PIK3CA c.1633G>A (p.Glu545Lys) variant is damaging, evidence that correlates with impact on PIK3CA function. In support of this prediction, functional in vitro and patient-derived cell studies show that this lysine substitution at codon 545 leads to autonomous phosphorylation of AKT and activation of the downstream AKT-mTOR signaling (Gymnopoulos M et al., PMID: 17376864; Menteş M et al. PMID: 35842959). Additionally, the PIK3CA gene is defined by the ClinGen Brain Malformations expert panel as a gene that has a low rate of benign missense variation and where pathogenic missense variants are a common mechanism of disease (Lai A et al., PMID:35997716). A large number of PI3K/AKT pathway inhibitors are currently under clinical study, in both PROS disorders and cancer (Jin N et al., PMID: 34779417; Venot Q et al., PMID: 29899452; Parker VER et al., PMID: 30270358). Based on an internally-developed protocol informed by the ACMG/AMP guidelines (Richards S et al., PMID: 25741868) and gene-specific practices from the ClinGen Criteria Specification Registry, the PIK3CA c.1633G>A (p.Glu545Lys) variant is classified as pathogenic. -

The p.E545K variant substitutes the glutamic acid at position 545 with lysine within the helical domain of the PIK3CA protein. This is an activating mutation that results in ligand-independent activation of the PI3K-AKT-mTOR pathway and increased proliferation in vitro (PMID: 26627007). -

Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingGenomics For LifeOct 21, 2021A somatic mutation is present within the PIK3CA (Exon 10) gene in the DNA extracted from tissue. Gain-of-function (usually somatic mosaic) mutations in PIK3CA are associated with PIK3CA-Related Overgrowth Spectrum (PROS) and the PIK3CA c.1633G>A; p.(Glu545Lys) (Chr3:g.178936091G>A) variant has previously been reported in patients with PROS, CLOVES syndrome, fibroadipose hyperplasia and isolated macrodactyly (PMID: 28151489, 29661094) The PIK3CA c.1633G>A; p.(Glu545Lys) variant results in a p110 alpha-helical domain substitution (PMID:26637981), activates AKT, disrupts normal EC-characteristic monolayer morphology as visualized by phase-contrast microscopy, results in loss of ECM fibronectin, and strongly downregulates ANGPT2 and PDGF-B mRNA expression as measured by real-time quantitative PCR. Plasminogen system-components are also somewhat dysregulated by the variant PIK3CA c.1633G>A; p.(Glu545Lys) (PMID:26637981). The variant is located in a mutational hot spot and/or critical and well-established functional domain (e.g., active site of an enzyme) without benign variation: using strength Strong because Hot-spot of length 17 amino-acids has 21 non-VUS missense/in-frame variants (21 pathogenic and 0 benign), pathogenicity = 100.0%, qualifies as a dense hot-spot. The variant is absent from controls in Exome Sequencing Project, 1000 Genomes Project, or Exome Aggregation Consortium: GnomAD exomes allele count = 1 is less than 5 for gene PIK3CA (good gnomAD exomes coverage = 42.7) and the variant is not found in gnomAD genomes (good gnomAD genomes coverage = 31.4). The variant is a missense change at an amino acid residue where a different missense change determined to be pathogenic has been seen before: alternative variants chr3:178936091G>C (Glu545Gln); chr3:178936092A>C (Glu545Ala); chr3:178936092A>G (Glu545Gly); chr3:178936092A>T (Glu545Val); chr3:178936093G>C (Glu545Asp) and chr3:178936093G>T (Glu545Asp) are classified Pathogenic. The variant is a missense variant in a gene that has a low rate of benign missense variation and in which missense variants are a common mechanism of disease: 246 out of 254 non-VUS missense variants in gene PIK3CA are pathogenic = 96.9% which is more than threshold of 51.0%, and 259 out of 587 clinically reported variants in gene PIK3CA are pathogenic = 44.1% which is more than threshold of 12.0%. Multiple lines of computational evidence support a deleterious effect on the gene or gene product: Pathogenic computational verdict based on 11 pathogenic predictions from BayesDel_addAF, DANN, DEOGEN2, EIGEN, FATHMM-MKL, LIST-S2, M-CAP, MVP, MutationTaster, PrimateAI and SIFT vs 1 benign prediction from MutationAssessor (PMID:30376034). The variant is annotated in Clinvar as a pathogenic variant associated with PIK3CA-related overgrowth spectrum (https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/clinvar/variation/13655/). Based on a modification of the ACMG Guidelines (PMID:25741868, 25880439), the PIK3CA c.1633G>A; p.(Glu545Lys) variant is classified as a pathogenic variant. -
