Genes affected
SMAD4 (HGNC:6770): (SMAD family member 4) This gene encodes a member of the Smad family of signal transduction proteins. Smad proteins are phosphorylated and activated by transmembrane serine-threonine receptor kinases in response to transforming growth factor (TGF)-beta signaling. The product of this gene forms homomeric complexes and heteromeric complexes with other activated Smad proteins, which then accumulate in the nucleus and regulate the transcription of target genes. This protein binds to DNA and recognizes an 8-bp palindromic sequence (GTCTAGAC) called the Smad-binding element (SBE). The protein acts as a tumor suppressor and inhibits epithelial cell proliferation. It may also have an inhibitory effect on tumors by reducing angiogenesis and increasing blood vessel hyperpermeability. The encoded protein is a crucial component of the bone morphogenetic protein signaling pathway. The Smad proteins are subject to complex regulation by post-translational modifications. Mutations or deletions in this gene have been shown to result in pancreatic cancer, juvenile polyposis syndrome, and hereditary hemorrhagic telangiectasia syndrome. [provided by RefSeq, May 2022]

The c.1139G>A pathogenic mutation (also known as p.R380K), located in coding exon 8 of the SMAD4 gene, results from a G to A substitution at nucleotide position 1139. The amino acid change results in arginine to lysine at codon 380, an amino acid with highly similar properties. However, this change occurs in the last base pair of coding exon 8, which makes it likely to have some effect on normal mRNA splicing. This variant has been observed in multiple individuals with a personal and/or family history that is consistent with juvenile polyposis (Aretz S et al. J Med Genet, 2007 Nov;44:702-9; Ambry internal data). This variant is considered to be rare based on population cohorts in the Genome Aggregation Database (gnomAD). This nucleotide position is highly conserved in available vertebrate species. In silico splice site analysis predicts that this alteration will weaken the native splice donor site. RNA studies have demonstrated that this alteration results in abnormal splicing in the set of samples tested (Aretz S et al. J Med Genet, 2007 Nov;44:702-9; Ambry internal data). In addition, this alteration is predicted to be deleterious by in silico analysis. Based on the supporting evidence, this variant is interpreted as a disease-causing mutation. -

This sequence change affects codon 380 of the SMAD4 mRNA. It is a 'silent' change, meaning that it does not change the encoded amino acid sequence of the SMAD4 protein. This variant also falls at the last nucleotide of exon 9, which is part of the consensus splice site for this exon. This variant is not present in population databases (gnomAD no frequency). This variant has been observed in individuals with clinical features of SMAD4-related conditions (PMID: 25931195; Invitae). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 38283). An algorithm developed to predict the effect of missense changes on protein structure and function (PolyPhen-2) suggests that this variant is likely to be disruptive. Variants that disrupt 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. In summary, the currently available evidence indicates that the variant is pathogenic, but additional data are needed to prove that conclusively. Therefore, this variant has been classified as Likely Pathogenic. -
