Genes affected
TERT (HGNC:11730): (telomerase reverse transcriptase) Telomerase is a ribonucleoprotein polymerase that maintains telomere ends by addition of the telomere repeat TTAGGG. The enzyme consists of a protein component with reverse transcriptase activity, encoded by this gene, and an RNA component which serves as a template for the telomere repeat. Telomerase expression plays a role in cellular senescence, as it is normally repressed in postnatal somatic cells resulting in progressive shortening of telomeres. Deregulation of telomerase expression in somatic cells may be involved in oncogenesis. Studies in mouse suggest that telomerase also participates in chromosomal repair, since de novo synthesis of telomere repeats may occur at double-stranded breaks. Alternatively spliced variants encoding different isoforms of telomerase reverse transcriptase have been identified; the full-length sequence of some variants has not been determined. Alternative splicing at this locus is thought to be one mechanism of regulation of telomerase activity. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]

Hereditary cancer-predisposing syndrome;C0265965:Dyskeratosis congenita Uncertain:1
Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingAmbry GeneticsAug 30, 2022The p.T1030R variant (also known as c.3089C>G), located in coding exon 14 of the TERT gene, results from a C to G substitution at nucleotide position 3089. The threonine at codon 1030 is replaced by arginine, an amino acid with similar properties. This amino acid position is conserved. In addition, this alteration is predicted to be tolerated by in silico analysis. Since supporting evidence is limited at this time, the clinical significance of this alteration remains unclear. -
TERT-related disorder Uncertain:1
Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingPreventionGenetics, part of Exact SciencesNov 08, 2022The TERT c.3089C>G variant is predicted to result in the amino acid substitution p.Thr1030Arg. To our knowledge, this variant has not been reported in the literature. This variant is reported in 0.0083% of alleles in individuals of African descent in gnomAD (http://gnomad.broadinstitute.org/variant/5-1255470-G-C). In ClinVar, this variant is interpreted as uncertain (https://preview.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/clinvar/variation/539224/). At this time, the clinical significance of this variant is uncertain due to the absence of conclusive functional and genetic evidence. -
