Genes affected
DNMT3A (HGNC:2978): (DNA methyltransferase 3 alpha) CpG methylation is an epigenetic modification that is important for embryonic development, imprinting, and X-chromosome inactivation. Studies in mice have demonstrated that DNA methylation is required for mammalian development. This gene encodes a DNA methyltransferase that is thought to function in de novo methylation, rather than maintenance methylation. The protein localizes to the cytoplasm and nucleus and its expression is developmentally regulated. [provided by RefSeq, Mar 2016]

The p.Arg882Cys variant in DNMT3A has been reported as a de novo germline occurrence in 4 individuals with Tatton-Brown-Rahman syndrome, one of who developed acute myeloid leukemia, (Tlemsani 2016, Hollink 2017, Shen 2017) and is one of the most common somatic DNMT3A variants in acute myeloid leukemia. It has also been identified in 3/10364 Ashkenazi Jewish chromosomes by gnomAD (http://gnomad.broadinstitute.org). However, the median variant allele fraction in these individuals was rather low, suggesting they might be associated with age-related clonal hematopoiesis. Computational prediction tools and conservation analysis suggest that this variant may impact the protein, and in vitro functional studies support an impact on protein function (Russler-Germain 2014). An additional variant involving this codon p.Arg882His has been identified in individuals with Tatton Brown-Rahman syndrome and is a commonly identified somatic variant in acute myeloid leukemia. In summary, this variant meets criteria to be classified as pathogenic for autosomal dominant Tatton-Brown-Rahman syndrome (also known as tall stature-intellectual disability-facial dysmorphism syndrome).

Based on the classification scheme VCGS_Germline_v1.3.4, this variant is classified as Pathogenic. Following criteria are met: 0103 - Loss of function and gain of function are known mechanisms of disease in this gene and are associated with disease. Loss of function has been associated with Tatton-Brown-Rahman syndrome (MIM#615879) while gain of function has been associated with Heyn-Sproul-Jackson syndrome (MIM#618724) and demonstrated for two missense variants (PMID: 30478443). (I) 0107 - This gene is associated with autosomal dominant disease. (I) 0200 - Variant is predicted to result in a missense amino acid change from arginine to cysteine. (I) 0251 - This variant is heterozygous. (I) 0302 - Variant is present in gnomAD (v2) <0.001 for a dominant condition (34 heterozygotes, 0 homozygotes). However, it is likely somatic in the majority of those heterozygotes due to the low allele balance. (SP) 0309 - Multiple alternative amino acid changes at the same position have been observed in gnomAD (v2) (highest allele count: 64 heterozygotes, 0 homozygotes). (I) 0501 - Missense variant consistently predicted to be damaging by multiple in silico tools or highly conserved with a major amino acid change. (SP) 0602 - Variant is located in a hotspot region or cluster of pathogenic variants. p.Arg882 is well reported to be a hotspot for both germline variants causing TBRS and somatic variants in acute myeloid leukaemia (ClinVar, PMID: 28941052). (SP) 0702 - Other missense variants comparable to the one identified in this case have strong previous evidence for pathogenicity. At least two alternative changes (p.(Arg882His) and p.(Arg882Ser)) have been classified as pathogenic or likely pathogenic by clinical laboratories in ClinVar, and p.(Arg882His) has been reported in several individuals with TBRS or syndromic intellectual disability (DECIPHER, PMIDs: 28941052, 29900417). (SP) 0801 - This variant has strong previous evidence of pathogenicity in unrelated individuals. This variant has been classified as pathogenic by multiple clinical laboratories in ClinVar and observed as de novo in at least seven individuals with TBRS (PMIDs: 28941052, 27317772, 28432085, 29900417). (SP) 1203 - This variant has been shown to be de novo in the proband (parental status confirmed) (by trio analysis).

Significance: Pathogenic
Review Status: criteria provided, single submitter
Collection Method: clinical testing

The de novo missense variant c.2644C>T, p.Arg882Cys identified in the DNMT3A gene has been reported in multiple patients with Tatton-Brown-Rahman syndrome (PubMed: 28941052, 28432085, 31961069). This variant has 24 heterozygotes (0.016%) in gnomAD v3.1.1, suggesting moderate allele frequency in the populations represented in this database. However, researchers revealed that the median variant allele fraction in individuals reported in the population database with this variant was ~19%, strongly suggesting that the observed frequencies are confounding somatic variants in individuals with age-related clonal hematopoiesis (PMID: 28229513). In silico algorithms predict a deleterious effect, and the variant resides at the C-5 cytosine-specific DNA methylase (Dnmt) domain of the DNMT3A protein. Based on the available evidence, the de novo missense variant c.2644C>T, p.Arg882Cys in the DNMT3A gene is classified as pathogenic. -

This sequence change replaces arginine, which is basic and polar, with cysteine, which is neutral and slightly polar, at codon 882 of the DNMT3A protein (p.Arg882Cys). The frequency data for this variant in the population databases is considered unreliable, as metrics indicate poor data quality at this position in the gnomAD database. This missense change has been observed in individual(s) with Tatton-Brown-Rahman syndrome (PMID: 27317772, 28432085). In at least one individual the variant was observed to be de novo. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 375882). 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 DNMT3A protein function with a positive predictive value of 80%. Experimental studies have shown that this missense change affects DNMT3A function (PMID: 31620784). For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. -

Review Status: no assertion criteria provided

The DNMT3A c.2644C>T variant is predicted to result in the amino acid substitution p.Arg882Cys. This variant was reported as a de novo variant in two patients with Sotos-like syndrome (Tlemsani et al. 2016. PubMed ID: 27317772), in one patient with Tatton–Brown–Rahman syndrome (see patient 3, Shen et al. 2017. PubMed ID: 28941052), and in another patient with Tatton-Brown-Rahman syndrome, who developed acute myeloid leukaemia (Hollink et al. 2017. PubMed ID: 28432085). This variant was also reported in one patient with lung cancer (Li et al. 2021. PubMed ID: 33878367). Somatic variants, primarily missense, involving amino acid residue p.Arg882, but also other nonsense and protein-truncating variants, have been reported in myelodysplastic syndrome (MDS) and acute myeloid leukemia (AML) patients (Im et al. 2014. PubMed ID: 24699305, Ley et al. 2010. PubMed ID: 21067377). In summary, we classify this variant as pathogenic. -
