Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingARUP Laboratories, Molecular Genetics and Genomics, ARUP LaboratoriesNov 28, 2023The SPINK1 c.-147A>G variant (rs779832256) is reported in the literature in individuals affected with pancreatitis or pancreatic cancer, but is also found in healthy controls (Boulling 2011, Derikx 2015, Keiles 2006, Slavin 2018). This variant is also reported in ClinVar (Variation ID: 239503), and is found in the general population with an overall allele frequency of 0.022% (7/31408 alleles) in the Genome Aggregation Database (v2.1.1). This variant occurs in the 5' untranslated region at a nucleotide that is weakly conserved, and in vitro reporter assays demonstrate reduced expression (Boulling 2011, Derikx 2015). However, whether reduced expression occurs in vivo or is sufficient for disease remains to be determined. Given available information, the clinical significance of this variant is uncertain at this time. References: Boulling A et al. Assessing the pathological relevance of SPINK1 promoter variants.

Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingAmbry GeneticsJun 25, 2021The c.-147A>G variant is located in the 5' untranslated region (5’ UTR) of the SPINK1 gene. This variant results from an A to G substitution 147 bases upstream from the first translated codon. This nucleotide position is highly conserved in available vertebrate species. The variant has been detected in multiple individuals with pancreatitis or pancreatic cancer (Keiles S et al. Pancreas, 2006 Oct;33:221-7; Boulling A et al. Eur. J. Hum. Genet., 2011 Oct;19:1066-73; Slavin TP et al. Fam Cancer, 2018 04;17:235-245). Functional studies showed that this alteration disrupts a putative HNF1-binding site and reduces the SPINK1 promoter activity (Boulling A et al. Eur. J. Hum. Genet., 2011 Oct;19:1066-73; Derikx MH et al. Am. J. Physiol. Gastrointest. Liver Physiol., 2015 May;308:G779-84). However, it is unknown whether the reduced promoter activity is sufficient to cause disease. In addition, the variant has been detected in multiple unaffected individuals at our laboratory. Since supporting evidence is limited at this time, the clinical significance of this alteration remains unclear. -
Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingLabcorp Genetics (formerly Invitae), LabcorpJan 11, 2020The frequency data for this variant in the population databases is considered unreliable, as metrics indicate insufficient coverage at this position in the ExAC database. This variant occurs in a non-coding region of the SPINK1 gene. It does not change the encoded amino acid sequence of the SPINK1 protein. This variant has been observed in an individual with pancreatic cancer who also carried another pathogenic variant (PMID: 28687971). Additionally, this variant has been observed in several individuals with chronic pancreatitis, as well as a control individual (PMID: 21610753, 17003641). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 239503). 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. Experimental studies have shown that this variant reduces promoter activity of SPINK1 and disrupts transcription factor binding in vitro (PMID: 21610753, 25792561, 28556356). However, the clinical significance of these findings is unknown. -
