Genes affected

SUFU (HGNC:16466): (SUFU negative regulator of hedgehog signaling) The Hedgehog signaling pathway plays an important role in early human development. The pathway is a signaling cascade that plays a role in pattern formation and cellular proliferation during development. This gene encodes a negative regulator of the hedgehog signaling pathway. Defects in this gene are a cause of medulloblastoma. Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants.[provided by RefSeq, May 2010]

Genetic Services Laboratory, University of Chicago

Significance:Uncertain significance

Review Status:no assertion criteria provided

Collection Method:clinical testing

DNA sequence analysis of the SUFU gene demonstrated a sequence change, c.529A>G, in exon 4 that results in an amino acid change, p.Met177Val. This sequence change does not appear to have been previously described in individuals with SUFU-related disorders. This sequence change has been described in the gnomAD database with a frequency of 0.0028% in the overall population (dbSNP rs758672583). The p.Met177Val change affects a highly conserved amino acid residue located in a domain of the SUFU protein that is known to be functional. In-silico pathogenicity prediction tools (SIFT, PolyPhen2, Align GVGD, REVEL) provide contradictory results for the p.Met177Val substitution. Due to insufficient evidences and the lack of functional studies, the clinical significance of the p.Met177Val change remains unknown at this time. -

Significance:Uncertain significance

Review Status:criteria provided, single submitter

Collection Method:clinical testing

This sequence change replaces methionine, which is neutral and non-polar, with valine, which is neutral and non-polar, at codon 177 of the SUFU protein (p.Met177Val). This variant is present in population databases (rs758672583, gnomAD 0.006%). This variant has not been reported in the literature in individuals affected with SUFU-related conditions. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 453966). Invitae Evidence Modeling of protein sequence and biophysical properties (such as structural, functional, and spatial information, amino acid conservation, physicochemical variation, residue mobility, and thermodynamic stability) has been performed for this missense variant. However, the output from this modeling did not meet the statistical confidence thresholds required to predict the impact of this variant on SUFU protein function. In summary, the available evidence is currently insufficient to determine the role of this variant in disease. Therefore, it has been classified as a Variant of Uncertain Significance. -

Illumina Laboratory Services, Illumina

Significance:Uncertain significance

Review Status:criteria provided, single submitter

Collection Method:clinical testing

This variant was observed in the ICSL laboratory as part of a predisposition screen in an ostensibly healthy population. It had not been previously curated by ICSL or reported in the Human Gene Mutation Database (HGMD: prior to June 1st, 2018), and was therefore a candidate for classification through an automated scoring system. Utilizing variant allele frequency, disease prevalence and penetrance estimates, and inheritance mode, an automated score was calculated to assess if this variant is too frequent to cause the disease. Based on the score, this variant could not be ruled out of causing disease and therefore its association with disease required further investigation. A literature search was performed for the gene, cDNA change, and amino acid change (if applicable). No publications were found based on this search. This variant was therefore classified as a variant of unknown significance for this disease. -

Ambry Genetics

Significance:Likely benign

Review Status:criteria provided, single submitter

Collection Method:clinical testing

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. -
