Genes affected
STK11 (HGNC:11389): (serine/threonine kinase 11) The protein encoded by this gene is a serine/threonine kinase that regulates cell polarity and energy metabolism and functions as a tumor suppressor. Mutations in this gene have been associated with the autosomal dominant Peutz-Jeghers syndrome, as well as with skin, pancreatic, and testicular cancers. [provided by RefSeq, May 2022]

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

The STK11 c.1226G>A (p.Arg409Gln) missense change has a maximum subpopulation frequency of 0.0060% in gnomAD v2.1.1 (https://gnomad.broadinstitute.org/variant/19-1226570-G-A). This variant is reported 2x in the FLOSSIES database which contains genetic variants from women older than 70 years of age who have never had cancer (https://whi.color.com/variant/19-1226570-G-A). Five of seven in silico tools predict a benign effect of this variant on protein function (BP4), however these predictions have not been confirmed by functional studies. To our knowledge, this variant has not been reported in individuals with Peutz-Jeghers syndrome. In summary, this variant meets criteria to be classified as of uncertain significance based on the ACMG/AMP criteria: BP4. -

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

This missense variant replaces arginine with glutamine at codon 409 of the STK11 protein. Computational prediction suggests that this variant may not impact protein structure and function (internally defined REVEL score threshold <= 0.5, PMID: 27666373). To our knowledge, functional studies have not been reported for this variant. This variant has not been reported in individuals affected with hereditary cancer in the literature. This variant has been identified in 7/193536 chromosomes in the general population by the Genome Aggregation Database (gnomAD). The available evidence is insufficient to determine the role of this variant in disease conclusively. Therefore, this variant is classified as a Variant of Uncertain Significance. -

The STK11 c.1226G>A (p.Arg409Gln) variant has been reported in the published literature in an individual with triple negative breast cancer (PMID: 34326862 (2021)). This variant has also been identified in reportedly healthy individuals (PMID: 30287823 (2018), 36243179 (2022)). The frequency of this variant in the general population, 0.00006 (5/82982 chromosomes in European (Non-Finnish) subpopulation (Genome Aggregation Database, http://gnomad.broadinstitute.org)), is higher than would generally be expected for pathogenic variants in this gene. Analysis of this variant using bioinformatics tools for the prediction of the effect of amino acid changes on protein structure and function yielded predictions that this variant is benign. Based on the available information, we are unable to determine the clinical significance of this variant. -

The STK11 c.1226G>A; p.Arg409Gln variant (rs587782364) to our knowledge, is not reported in the medical literature in an STK11-related condition but has been reported in a healthy control (Momozawa 2018). This variant is also reported in ClinVar (Variation ID: 142292) and is found in the general population with an overall allele frequency of 0.0036% (7/193,536 alleles) in the Genome Aggregation Database. Computational analyses are uncertain whether this variant is neutral or deleterious (REVEL: 0.167). Due to limited information, the clinical significance of this variant is uncertain at this time.

The p.Arg409Gln variant in STK11 has not been previously reported in the literat ure in individuals with Peutz-Jeghers syndrome, but has been reported in ClinVar (Variation ID 142292). This variant has also been identified in 6/80576 of Euro pean chromosomes by the Genome Aggregation Database (gnomAD, http://gnomad.broad institute.org; dbSNP rs587782364). Computational prediction tools and conservati on analysis suggest that the p.Arg409Gln variant may not impact the protein, tho ugh this information is not predictive enough to rule out pathogenicity. In summ ary, the clinical significance of the p.Arg409Gln variant is uncertain. -

This alteration is classified as likely benign based on a combination of the following: seen in unaffected individuals, population frequency, intact protein function, lack of segregation with disease, co-occurrence, RNA analysis, in silico models, amino acid conservation, lack of disease association in case-control studies, and/or the mechanism of disease or impacted region is inconsistent with a known cause of pathogenicity. -

The STK11 c.1226G>A variant is predicted to result in the amino acid substitution p.Arg409Gln. This variant has not been reported in the literature in individuals affected with Peutz-Jeghers Syndrome but has been identified in several individuals with breast cancer and in unaffected controls (Momozawa et al. 2018. PubMed ID: 30287823; Bhai P et al. 2021. PubMed ID: 34326862). This variant has also been identified in one individual with biliary tract cancer (Okawa Y et al. 2022. PubMed ID: 36243179). This variant is reported in 0.0060% of alleles in individuals of European (Non-Finnish) descent in gnomAD. This variant has conflicting interpretations in ClinVar from uncertain significance to likely benign (https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/clinvar/variation/142292/). At this time, the clinical significance of this variant is uncertain due to the absence of conclusive functional and genetic evidence. -
