Genes affected
PTEN (HGNC:9588): (phosphatase and tensin homolog) This gene was identified as a tumor suppressor that is mutated in a large number of cancers at high frequency. The protein encoded by this gene is a phosphatidylinositol-3,4,5-trisphosphate 3-phosphatase. It contains a tensin like domain as well as a catalytic domain similar to that of the dual specificity protein tyrosine phosphatases. Unlike most of the protein tyrosine phosphatases, this protein preferentially dephosphorylates phosphoinositide substrates. It negatively regulates intracellular levels of phosphatidylinositol-3,4,5-trisphosphate in cells and functions as a tumor suppressor by negatively regulating AKT/PKB signaling pathway. The use of a non-canonical (CUG) upstream initiation site produces a longer isoform that initiates translation with a leucine, and is thought to be preferentially associated with the mitochondrial inner membrane. This longer isoform may help regulate energy metabolism in the mitochondria. A pseudogene of this gene is found on chromosome 9. Alternative splicing and the use of multiple translation start codons results in multiple transcript variants encoding different isoforms. [provided by RefSeq, Feb 2015]

The p.N117H variant (also known as c.349A>C), located in coding exon 5 of the PTEN gene, results from an A to C substitution at nucleotide position 349. The asparagine at codon 117 is replaced by histidine, an amino acid with similar properties. This variant demonstrated possibly wildtype-like intracellular protein abundance on one multiplex functional assay (Matreyek KA et al. Nat Genet, 2018 06;50:874-882). In a massively parallel functional assay using a humanized yeast model, lipid phosphatase activity for this variant was inconclusive (Mighell TL et al. Am J Hum Genet, 2018 05;102:943-955). This amino acid position is highly conserved in available vertebrate species. In addition, the in silico prediction for this alteration is inconclusive. Based on the available evidence, the clinical significance of this alteration remains unclear. -

Significance: Likely benign
Review Status: criteria provided, single submitter
Collection Method: curation

Each variant was annotated with functional scores from MAVE data which was translated into functional evidence codes. All other evidence codes and combining criteria were adhered to as closely as possible based on the ClinGen VCEP (Variant Curation Expert Panel) gene-specific recommendations. See Supplemental Figure 34 of final paper (Supp Fig. 28 in preprint: doi:10.1101/2024.04.11.24305690) for a table to see which lines of evidence we did not have data for. The ClinGen VCEPs are highly regarded as the gold-standard for gene-specific variant curation and are developed after extensive evaluation of the evidence by clinical and scientific experts for the particular gene to classify genomic variants on a spectrum from pathogenic to benign using the 2015 ACMG/AMP Variant Interpretation Guidelines as a backbone (PMID: 25741868). Reclassification of these VUS variants from gnomAD or All of Us focused only on variants originally prescribed as VUS in ClinVar. To ensure reproducibility, transparency, and increased throughput, all the procedures for annotating variants and assigning evidence codes were codified using Python. All code has been made freely available and is linked in the Code Availability section and all reclassified variants with evidence codes used can be found in Tables S18-19 (preprint: doi:10.1101/2024.04.11.24305690). For the MAVE data, the clinical curation and clinical strength assignment as per the ClinGen recommendations in Brnich et al. (2020) (PMID: 31892348) for or against pathogenicity or benignity of each of these MAVE datasets utilized in this study were previously published in Fayer et al. (2021) (PMID: 34793697).For PTEN, two assays measuring activity and abundance were used. If the abundance was categorized as "wt-like" or "possibly wt-like," BS3_Supporting evidence was used. Furthermore, if the cumulative score was greater than -5, BS3_moderate evidence was used. This variant GRCh38:10:87933108:A>C was assigned evidence codes ['BS3_Supporting', 'BP4'] and an overall classification of Likely benign -

Significance: Uncertain significance

Collection Method: clinical testing

This missense variant replaces asparagine with histidine at codon 117 in the PTEN protein. A functional assay using an artificial humanized yeast model yielded inconclusive results for this variant's impact on lipid phosphatase activity (PMID: 29706350). This variant has been reported in an individual affected with suspected Lynch syndrome (PMID: 25980754). This variant has been identified in 3/251262 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. -

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

This sequence change replaces asparagine, which is neutral and polar, with histidine, which is basic and polar, at codon 117 of the PTEN protein (p.Asn117His). This variant is present in population databases (rs771310592, gnomAD 0.009%). This missense change has been observed in individual(s) with clinical features of PTEN-related conditions (PMID: 25980754). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 185588). Invitae Evidence Modeling incorporating data from in vitro experimental studies (internal data) indicates that this missense variant is not expected to disrupt PTEN function with a negative predictive value of 95%. 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. -

This variant is denoted PTEN c.349A>C at the cDNA level, p.Asn117His (N117H) at the protein level, and results in the change of an Asparagine to a Histidine (AAT>CAT). This variant was observed in a cohort of individuals undergoing hereditary cancer panel testing for a personal and/or family history suspicious for Lynch syndrome (Yurgelun 2015). PTEN Asn117His was not observed in approximately 6,500 individuals of European and African American ancestry in the NHLBI Exome Sequencing Project, suggesting it is not a common benign variant in these populations. Since Asparagine and Histidine differ in some properties, this is considered a semi-conservative amino acid substitution. PTEN Asn117His occurs at a position that is conserved across species and is located in the phosphatase domain (Molinari 2014). In silico analyses are inconsistent regarding the effect this variant may have on protein structure and function. Based on currently available evidence, it is unclear whether PTEN Asn117His is a pathogenic or benign variant. We consider it to be a variant of uncertain significance. -
