Genes affected
PIK3CA (HGNC:8975): (phosphatidylinositol-4,5-bisphosphate 3-kinase catalytic subunit alpha) Phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase is composed of an 85 kDa regulatory subunit and a 110 kDa catalytic subunit. The protein encoded by this gene represents the catalytic subunit, which uses ATP to phosphorylate PtdIns, PtdIns4P and PtdIns(4,5)P2. This gene has been found to be oncogenic and has been implicated in cervical cancers. A pseudogene of this gene has been defined on chromosome 22. [provided by RefSeq, Apr 2016]

ACMG classification

Classification made for transcript

Verdict is Likely_pathogenic. Variant got 7 ACMG points.

PM2
Very rare variant in population databases, with high coverage;
PP2
Missense variant in the PIK3CA gene, where missense mutations are typically associated with disease (based on misZ statistic). The gene has 98 curated pathogenic missense variants (we use a threshold of 10). The gene has 13 curated benign missense variants. Gene score misZ: 5.5986 (above the threshold of 3.09). Trascript score misZ: 6.1406 (above the threshold of 3.09). GenCC associations: The gene is linked to hereditary breast carcinoma, vascular malformation, Cowden disease, Cowden syndrome 5, CLOVES syndrome, familial ovarian cancer, megalencephaly-capillary malformation-polymicrogyria syndrome, overgrowth syndrome and/or cerebral malformations due to abnormalities in MTOR pathway genes.
PP3
MetaRNN computational evidence supports a deleterious effect, 0.845
PP5
Variant 3-179198938-G-A is Pathogenic according to our data. Variant chr3-179198938-G-A is described in ClinVar as [Likely_pathogenic]. Clinvar id is 376492.Status of the report is criteria_provided_single_submitter, 1 stars.

This sequence change in PIK3CA is predicted to replace arginine with histidine at codon 38, p.(Arg38His). The arginine residue is highly conserved (100 vertebrates, Multiz Alignments), and is located in adaptor binding domain (PI3K ABD) a region, amino acids 31-108, that is defined as a mutational hotspot. There is a small physicochemical difference between arginine and histidine. PIK3CA , in which the variant was identified, is a gene that has a low rate of benign missense variation and where pathogenic missense variants are a common mechanism of disease (gnomAD v2.1). The highest population minor allele frequency in the population database gnomAD v4.0 is 0.0002% (2/1,110,018 alleles) in the European (non-Finnish) population. This variant has been detected in at least one individual with polymicrogyria (Melbourne Health Pathology) and has been reported as a somatic event in at least 40 tumour samples (COSMIC ID: COSV55879949). In vitro functional studies assessing kinase activity (with limited assay validation) demonstrate a gain of function effect for the variant which is weaker than well-established pathogenic gain of function variants (PMID: 15930273, 16339315, 17376864). Computational evidence predicts a deleterious effect for the missense substitution (REVEL = 0.654). Based on the classification scheme RMH Modified ACMG/AMP Guidelines v1.6.1, this variant is classified as LIKELY PATHOGENIC. Following criteria are met: PS4_Moderate, PM1_Supporting, PM2_Supporting, PP2, PP3, PS3_Supporting. -
