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]

PTEN hamartoma tumor syndrome Uncertain:2
Jan 13, 2025
Labcorp Genetics (formerly Invitae), Labcorp
Significance:Uncertain significance
Review Status:criteria provided, single submitter
Collection Method:clinical testing

This sequence change replaces tyrosine, which is neutral and polar, with cysteine, which is neutral and slightly polar, at codon 176 of the PTEN protein (p.Tyr176Cys). This variant is present in population databases (rs757498880, gnomAD 0.03%). This missense change has been observed in individual(s) with clinical features of PTEN hamartoma tumor syndrome (PMID: 18759867, 21194675, 21659347). This variant is also known as c.530A>G. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 185585). 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%. Experimental studies are conflicting or provide insufficient evidence to determine the effect of this variant on PTEN function (PMID: 21828076, 25647146, 25937288, 32350270). 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. -

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

This missense variant replaces tyrosine with cysteine at codon 176 of the PTEN protein. Splice site prediction tools suggest that this variant may not impact RNA splicing. Experimental functional studies have reported inconsistent results, showing a modest decrease in catalytic efficacy and conformational stability in a yeast-based study (PMID: 21828076) but catalytic activity similar to wild-type in another (PMID: 25647146). The variant has also demonstrated partial deficits chemotaxis assays using C. elegans (DOI: 10.1101/800011) and deficits in cortical interneuron development using PTEN complementation assays (PMID: 25937288). This variant has been reported in at least one individual with features of Cowden syndrome in the literature (PMID: 21194675, 21659347), and an individual affected with severe mental retardation and autism (PMID: 18759867). This variant has been identified in 5/276944 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. -

Hereditary cancer-predisposing syndrome Uncertain:1Benign:1
Apr 15, 2021
Ambry Genetics
Significance:Likely benign
Review Status:criteria provided, single submitter
Collection Method:clinical testing

This 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. -

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

This missense variant replaces tyrosine with cysteine at codon 176 of the PTEN protein. Multiple functional studies have reported the mutant protein to exhibit normal or partially reduced activity (PMID: 21828076, 25647146, 25937288, 28289760, 32350270). This variant has been reported in a few individuals with features of Cowden syndrome (PMID: 21194675, 21659347, 21828076) and autism spectrum disorder (PMID: 18759867). This variant has been identified in 5/276944 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. -

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

Variant summary: PTEN c.527A>G (p.Tyr176Cys) results in a non-conservative amino acid change located in the Tyrosine-specific protein phosphatase, PTPase domain (IPR000242) of the encoded protein sequence. Three of five in-silico tools predict a damaging effect of the variant on protein function. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 1.6e-05 in 251210 control chromosomes. c.527A>G has been reported in the literature in individuals affected with Cowden Syndrome and Breast Cancer (Orrico_2009, Pilarski_2011, Wu_2020). These data do not allow any conclusion about variant significance. At least one publication reports experimental evidence evaluating an impact on protein function. The most pronounced variant effect results in 30%-50% of normal catalytic activity in vitro (Johnston_2015). The following publications have been ascertained in the context of this evaluation (PMID: 25647146, 18759867, 21659347, 25937288, 32234455). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 185585). Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as VUS-possibly pathogenic. -

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

Observed in individuals with breast cancer and/or features of Cowden syndrome (Pilarski 2011, Tan 2011); Published functional studies are inconclusive: phosphatase activity similar to wild-type, conflicting results with respect to protein stability, deficits in interneuron development in vivo (Rodriguez-Escudero 2011, Johnston 2015, Vogt 2015, Chao 2020, Post 2020, Wong 2020); In silico analysis supports that this missense variant has a deleterious effect on protein structure/function; Observed in a child with autism and macrocephaly; however, different cDNA nomenclature was cited as corresponding to this amino acid change and the possibility that this is a different variant cannot be excluded (Orrico 2009); This variant is associated with the following publications: (PMID: 25527629, 31086789, 21828076, 25647146, 24744697, 26989027, 21659347, 23769996, 21194675, 25937288, 28289760, 33152507, 32366478, 32350270, 32150788, 29706350, 32830346, 32234455, 24475377, 18759867) -
