Genes affected
SPINK1 (HGNC:11244): (serine peptidase inhibitor Kazal type 1) The protein encoded by this gene is a trypsin inhibitor, which is secreted from pancreatic acinar cells into pancreatic juice. It is thought to function in the prevention of trypsin-catalyzed premature activation of zymogens within the pancreas and the pancreatic duct. Mutations in this gene are associated with hereditary pancreatitis and tropical calcific pancreatitis. [provided by RefSeq, Oct 2008]

Hereditary pancreatitis Uncertain:3Benign:1
Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingIllumina Laboratory Services, IlluminaApr 28, 2017This variant was observed as part of a predisposition screen in an ostensibly healthy population. A literature search was performed for the gene, cDNA change, and amino acid change (where applicable). Publications were found based on this search. However, the evidence from the literature, in combination with allele frequency data from public databases where available, was not sufficient to rule this variant in or out of causing disease. Therefore, this variant is classified as a variant of unknown significance. -
Likely benign, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingAmbry GeneticsDec 14, 2023This 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. -
Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingLabcorp Genetics (formerly Invitae), LabcorpJan 04, 2024This sequence change replaces glutamine, which is neutral and polar, with arginine, which is basic and polar, at codon 68 of the SPINK1 protein (p.Gln68Arg). This variant is present in population databases (rs760077990, gnomAD 0.08%), and has an allele count higher than expected for a pathogenic variant. This missense change has been observed in individual(s) with pancreatitis (PMID: 17003641). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 410700). 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 tolerated. Experimental studies are conflicting or provide insufficient evidence to determine the effect of this variant on SPINK1 function (PMID: 22343981, 28994706, 33515547). 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. -

Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingWomen's Health and Genetics/Laboratory Corporation of America, LabCorpMar 13, 2024Variant summary: SPINK1 c.203A>G (p.Gln68Arg) results in a conservative amino acid change located in the Kazal domain (IPR002350) of the encoded protein sequence. Four of five in-silico tools predict a benign effect of the variant on protein function. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 0.00011 in 250422 control chromosomes. This frequency is not significantly higher than estimated for a pathogenic variant in SPINK1 causing Chronic Pancreatitis (0.00011 vs 0.00025), allowing no conclusion about variant significance. c.203A>G has been reported in the literature in individuals affected with Chronic Pancreatitis (examples: Keiles_2006, Szabo_2021) however one of these cases was reported with another pathogenic PRSS1 variant (N29I; Keiles_2006). These report(s) do not provide unequivocal conclusions about association of the variant with Chronic Pancreatitis. Multiple studies have reported conflicting experimental evidence related to this variant (examples: Boulling_2012, Wu_2017, Szabo_2021). The following publications have been ascertained in the context of this evaluation (PMID: 22343981, 17003641, 33515547, 28994706). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 410700). Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as uncertain significance. -
Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingARUP Laboratories, Molecular Genetics and Genomics, ARUP LaboratoriesJun 09, 2019The SPINK1 c.203A>G; p.Gln68Arg variant (rs760077990) is reported in the literature in a single individual affected with pancreatitis, who also carried a pathogenic PRSS1 variant (Keiles 2006). This variant is reported as uncertain significance by multiple laboratories in ClinVar (Variation ID: 410700), and is found in the general population with an allele frequency of 0.010% (29/281824 alleles) in the Genome Aggregation Database. The glutamine at codon 68 is moderately conserved, and computational analyses (SIFT: tolerated, PolyPhen-2: possibly damaging) predict conflicting effects of this variant on protein structure/function. In vitro functional analyses show increased protein expression (Boulling 2012) but slightly decreased mRNA expression (Wu 2017). Due to limited information, the clinical significance of the p.Gln68Arg variant is uncertain at this time. References: Boulling A et al.
