Genes affected

RB1 (HGNC:9884): (RB transcriptional corepressor 1) The protein encoded by this gene is a negative regulator of the cell cycle and was the first tumor suppressor gene found. The encoded protein also stabilizes constitutive heterochromatin to maintain the overall chromatin structure. The active, hypophosphorylated form of the protein binds transcription factor E2F1. Defects in this gene are a cause of childhood cancer retinoblastoma (RB), bladder cancer, and osteogenic sarcoma. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]

Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitter	clinical testing	Genetic Diagnostic Laboratory, University of Pennsylvania School of Medicine	May 20, 2024	Case and Pedigree Information: BILATERAL CASES:2, UNILATERAL CASES:0, TOTAL CASES:2, PEDIGREES:2. ACMG Codes Applied:PVS1, PM2, PS4SUP -
Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitter	clinical testing	Labcorp Genetics (formerly Invitae), Labcorp	Jul 22, 2019	For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. A different variant affecting this nucleotide (c.861G>C) has been determined to be pathogenic (PMID: 11317357, 26539030, 22084214). This suggests that this nucleotide is important for normal RNA splicing, and that other variants at this position may also be pathogenic. Nucleotide substitutions within the consensus splice site are a relatively common cause of aberrant splicing (PMID: 17576681, 9536098). Algorithms developed to predict the effect of sequence changes on RNA splicing suggest that this variant may disrupt the consensus splice site, but this prediction has not been confirmed by published transcriptional studies. This variant has been reported in individuals affected with retinoblastoma, including one case of bilateral retinoblastoma in which the variant was shown to have arisen de novo (PMID: 24225018, Invitae). This variant is not present in population databases (ExAC no frequency). This sequence change affects codon 287 of the RB1 mRNA. It is a 'silent' change, meaning that it does not change the encoded amino acid sequence of the RB1 protein. This variant also falls at the last nucleotide of exon 8 of the RB1 coding sequence, which is part of the consensus splice site for this exon. -
