Genes affected
SUFU (HGNC:16466): (SUFU negative regulator of hedgehog signaling) The Hedgehog signaling pathway plays an important role in early human development. The pathway is a signaling cascade that plays a role in pattern formation and cellular proliferation during development. This gene encodes a negative regulator of the hedgehog signaling pathway. Defects in this gene are a cause of medulloblastoma. Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants.[provided by RefSeq, May 2010]

Submissions by phenotype

not specified Uncertain:1
Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingGenetic Services Laboratory, University of ChicagoApr 30, 2021DNA sequence analysis of the SUFU gene demonstrated a sequence change, c.1177C>T, in exon 10 that results in an amino acid change, p.Arg393Trp. This sequence change has been described in gnomAD with a frequency of 0.005% in the South Asian sub-population (dbSNP rs201326378). The p.Arg393Trp change affects a highly conserved amino acid residue located in a domain of the SUFU protein that is known to be functional. The p.Arg393Trp substitution appears to damaging using several in-silico pathogenicity prediction tools (SIFT, PolyPhen2, Align GVGD, REVEL). This sequence change does not appear to have been previously described in patients with SUFU-related disorders and has also not been described as a known benign sequence change in the SUFU gene. Due to the lack sufficient evidences, the clinical significance of the p.Arg393Trp change remains unknown at this time. -
Gorlin syndrome Uncertain:1
Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingBaylor GeneticsSep 24, 2020This variant was determined to be of uncertain significance according to ACMG Guidelines, 2015 [PMID:25741868]. -
Gorlin syndrome;C0025149:Medulloblastoma Uncertain:1
Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingInvitaeDec 10, 2023This sequence change replaces arginine, which is basic and polar, with tryptophan, which is neutral and slightly polar, at codon 393 of the SUFU protein (p.Arg393Trp). This variant is present in population databases (rs201326378, gnomAD 0.002%). This variant has not been reported in the literature in individuals affected with SUFU-related conditions. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 524656). Advanced modeling of protein sequence and biophysical properties (such as structural, functional, and spatial information, amino acid conservation, physicochemical variation, residue mobility, and thermodynamic stability) performed at Invitae indicates that this missense variant is expected to disrupt SUFU protein function with a positive predictive value of 80%. RNA analysis performed to evaluate the impact of this missense change on mRNA splicing indicates it does not significantly alter splicing (Invitae). In summary, the available evidence is currently insufficient to determine the role of this variant in disease. Therefore, it has been classified as a Variant of Uncertain Significance. -
not provided Uncertain:1
Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingGeneDxSep 16, 2022Not observed at significant frequency in large population cohorts (gnomAD); In silico analysis supports that this missense variant has a deleterious effect on protein structure/function; Has not been previously published as pathogenic or benign to our knowledge; In-silico analysis is inconclusive as to whether the variant alters gene splicing. In the absence of RNA/functional studies, the actual effect of this sequence change is unknown. -
Familial meningioma Uncertain:1
Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingBaylor GeneticsDec 18, 2023- -
Hereditary cancer-predisposing syndrome Uncertain:1
Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingAmbry GeneticsDec 13, 2023The p.R393W variant (also known as c.1177C>T), located in coding exon 10 of the SUFU gene, results from a C to T substitution at nucleotide position 1177. The arginine at codon 393 is replaced by tryptophan, an amino acid with dissimilar properties. This amino acid position is highly conserved in available vertebrate species. In addition, this alteration is predicted to be deleterious by in silico analysis. Since supporting evidence is limited at this time, the clinical significance of this alteration remains unclear. -
