Genes affected
STK11 (HGNC:11389): (serine/threonine kinase 11) The protein encoded by this gene is a serine/threonine kinase that regulates cell polarity and energy metabolism and functions as a tumor suppressor. Mutations in this gene have been associated with the autosomal dominant Peutz-Jeghers syndrome, as well as with skin, pancreatic, and testicular cancers. [provided by RefSeq, May 2022]

Benign, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingGeneDxMay 15, 2014This variant is considered likely benign or benign based on one or more of the following criteria: it is a conservative change, it occurs at a poorly conserved position in the protein, it is predicted to be benign by multiple in silico algorithms, and/or has population frequency not consistent with disease. -

Benign, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingWomen's Health and Genetics/Laboratory Corporation of America, LabCorpOct 19, 2018Variant summary: STK11 c.921-10G>A alters a non-conserved nucleotide located close to a canonical splice site and therefore could affect mRNA splicing, leading to a significantly altered protein sequence. 5/5 computational tools predict no significant impact on normal splicing. However, these predictions have yet to be confirmed by functional studies. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 0.00018 in 178932 control chromosomes, predominantly at a frequency of 0.0026 within the East Asian subpopulation in the gnomAD database. The observed variant frequency within East Asian control individuals in the gnomAD database is approximately 166.4 fold of the estimated maximal expected allele frequency for a pathogenic variant in STK11 causing Hereditary Breast and Ovarian Cancer phenotype (1.6e-05), strongly suggesting that the variant is a benign polymorphism found primarily in populations of East Asian origin. To our knowledge, no occurrence of c.921-10G>A in individuals affected with Hereditary Breast and Ovarian Cancer and no experimental evidence demonstrating its impact on protein function have been reported. Co-occurrences with other pathogenic variant(s) have been reported (MSH6 c.3261delC), providing supporting evidence for a benign role. Four 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 benign/likely benign. Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as benign. -

Likely benign, no assertion criteria providedclinical testingDepartment of Pathology and Laboratory Medicine, Sinai Health System-The STK11 c.921-10G>A variant was identified as a somatic change in 1 of 114 proband chromosomes (frequency: 0.009) from an individual with adenocarcinoma of the cervix (Kuragaki 2003). The variant was also identified in the following databases: dbSNP (ID: rs183406870) as "With Likely benign allele", ClinVar (3x likely benign, 2x benign), Clinvitae, and Cosmic (1x, confirmed somatic, in tumour of the cervix). The variant was not identified in MutDB, LOVD 3.0, Zhejiang Colon Cancer Database, or the Insight Hereditary Tumors Database. The variant was identified in control databases in 32 of 178932 chromosomes at a frequency of 0.0002 (Genome Aggregation Database Feb 27, 2017). Breakdown of the observations by population include East Asian in 32 of 12228 chromosomes (freq: 0.003), while the variant was not observed in the African, Other, Latino, European, Ashkenazi Jewish, Finnish, or South Asian populations. The c.921-10G>A variant is located in the 3' splice region but does not affect the invariant -1 and -2 positions. However, positions -3 and -5 to -12 are part of the splicing consensus sequence and variants involving these positions sometimes affect splicing. In silico or computational prediction software programs (SpliceSiteFinder, MaxEntScan, NNSPLICE, GeneSplicer, HumanSpliceFinder) do not predict a difference in splicing. In summary, based on the above information the clinical significance of this variant cannot be determined with certainty at this time although we would lean towards a more benign role for this variant. This variant is classified as likely benign. -
