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]

ACMG classification

Verdict is Pathogenic. Variant got 12 ACMG points.

• PVS1: Loss of function variant, product undergoes nonsense mediated mRNA decay. LoF is a known mechanism of disease.
• PM2: Very rare variant in population databases, with high coverage
• PP5: Variant 18-51067072-G-A is Pathogenic according to our data. Variant chr18-51067072-G-A is described in ClinVar as [Pathogenic]. Clinvar id is 2736728.Status of the report is criteria_provided_single_submitter, 1 stars. Variant chr18-51067072-G-A is described in Lovd as [Pathogenic].

For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. This premature translational stop signal has been observed in individual(s) with juvenile polyposis syndrome (PMID: 18178612). This variant is not present in population databases (gnomAD no frequency). This sequence change creates a premature translational stop signal (p.Trp398*) in the SMAD4 gene. It is expected to result in an absent or disrupted protein product. Loss-of-function variants in SMAD4 are known to be pathogenic (PMID: 16152648, 16436638, 22810475). -
