Variant summary
Our verdict is Likely benign. Variant got -4 ACMG points: 1P and 5B. BS2PM2_SupportingBS3_Supporting
This summary comes from the ClinGen Evidence Repository: The NM_000546.6: c.509C>T variant in TP53 is a missense variant predicted to cause substitution of threonine by methionine at amino acid 170 (p.Thr170Met). This variant has been observed in 4-7 heterozygous unrelated females from the same data source with no personal history of cancer prior to age 60 years and no personal history of sarcoma at any age (BS2_Moderate; Internal lab contributor). This variant has an allele frequency of 0.00003293 (3/91094 alleles) in the South Asian population in gnomAD v4.1.0 which is lower than the Clingen TP53 VCEP threshold (<0.00004) for PM2_Supporting, and therefore meets this criterion (PM2_Supporting). In vitro assays performed in yeast and/or human cell lines showed partially functional transactivation, and retained growth suppression activity indicating that this variant does not impact protein function (BS3_Supporting; PMIDs: 12826609, 29979965, 30224644). In summary, this variant meets the criteria to be classified as Likely Benign for Li Fraumeni syndrome based on the ACMG/AMP criteria applied, as specified by the ClinGen TP53 VCEP: BS2_Moderate, BS3_Supporting, PM2_Supporting.

Li-Fraumeni syndrome 1 Uncertain:2Benign:1
Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitter | clinical testing | Myriad Genetics, Inc. | Apr 11, 2023 | This variant is classified as a variant of uncertain significance as there is insufficient evidence to determine its impact on protein function and/or cancer risk. - |
Likely benign, reviewed by expert panel | curation | ClinGen TP53 Variant Curation Expert Panel, ClinGen | Apr 12, 2021 | This variant has been observed in 3 60+ year old females without a cancer diagnosis (BS2_Supporting; internal laboratory contributors). Transactivation assays show [retained/supertransactivation] function according to Kato, et al. and there is no evidence of a dominant negative effect or loss of function according to Giacomelli, et al. (BS3; PMID: 12826609, 30224644). In summary, TP53 c.509C>T (p.Thr170Met) meets criteria to be classified as likely benign for Li-Fraumeni syndrome. ACMG/AMP criteria applied, as specified by the TP53 Variant Curation Expert Panel: BS2_supporting; BS3_supporting. - |

Hereditary cancer-predisposing syndrome Uncertain:2
Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitter | clinical testing | Ambry Genetics | Sep 19, 2023 | The p.T170M variant (also known as c.509C>T), located in coding exon 4 of the TP53 gene, results from a C to T substitution at nucleotide position 509. The threonine at codon 170 is replaced by methionine, an amino acid with similar properties. This alteration has been reported in a patient diagnosed with an embryonal rhabdomyosarcoma of the testes at age 5; however, the family history did not resemble Li-Fraumeni syndrome and the parents were unavailable for testing (Magnusson, S et al. Pediatr Blood Cancer. 2012 Nov;59(5):846-53). This alteration was also seen in a penile carcinoma genome and IHC results on the tumor were consistent with altered p53 protein (Rocha, RM et al. Hum Pathol. 2012 Apr;43(4):481-8). This alteration has also been reported in hereditary breast cancer and prostate cancer cohorts (Kharaziha P et al. Clin Genet, 2019 09;96:216-225; Rantapero T et al. Genes (Basel), 2020 03;11:) This variant is in the DNA binding domain of the p53 protein and is reported to have partially functional transactivation capacity and is predicted to affect several p53 isoforms (IARC TP53 database; Kato S et al. Proc Natl Acad Sci USA. 2003 Jul 8;100(14):8424-9). Studies conducted in human cell lines indicate this alteration is proficient at growth suppression and has no dominant negative effect (Kotler E et al. Mol.Cell. 2018 Jul;71:178-190.e8; Giacomelli AO et al. Nat. Genet. 2018 Oct;50:1381-1387). This amino acid position is well conserved in available vertebrate species. In addition, this alteration is predicted to be deleterious by in silico analysis. Since supporting evidence is limited at this time, the clinical significance of this alteration remains unclear. - |
Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitter | clinical testing | Color Diagnostics, LLC DBA Color Health | Mar 07, 2022 | This missense variant replaces threonine with methionine at codon 170 of the TP53 protein. Computational prediction suggests that this variant may have deleterious impact on protein structure and function (internally defined REVEL score threshold >= 0.7, PMID: 27666373). Functional studies have shown that this variant displays normal function in yeast transactivation and human growth suppression and cell proliferation studies (PMID: 12826609, 29979965, 30224644). This variant has been reported in individuals affected with rhabdomyosarcoma and breast cancer in the literature (PMID: 22653678, 31081129). This variant has been identified in 13/282706 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. - |
