Variant summary

Our verdict is Likely pathogenic. Variant got 6 ACMG points: 6P and 0B. PM1 PM2 PM4

The ENST00000269305.9(TP53):​c.848_849insTCCTGGGAGAGACCGGCG​(p.Pro278_Arg283dup) variant causes a inframe insertion change involving the alteration of a non-conserved nucleotide. The variant was absent in control chromosomes in GnomAD project. Variant has been reported in ClinVar as Uncertain significance (★). Synonymous variant affecting the same amino acid position (i.e. R283R) has been classified as Likely benign.

Genes affected

TP53 (HGNC:11998): (tumor protein p53) This gene encodes a tumor suppressor protein containing transcriptional activation, DNA binding, and oligomerization domains. The encoded protein responds to diverse cellular stresses to regulate expression of target genes, thereby inducing cell cycle arrest, apoptosis, senescence, DNA repair, or changes in metabolism. Mutations in this gene are associated with a variety of human cancers, including hereditary cancers such as Li-Fraumeni syndrome. Alternative splicing of this gene and the use of alternate promoters result in multiple transcript variants and isoforms. Additional isoforms have also been shown to result from the use of alternate translation initiation codons from identical transcript variants (PMIDs: 12032546, 20937277).

In summary, this is a novel, in-frame duplication with uncertain impact on protein function. While this region of TP53 is important for DNA binding, the evidence is insufficient at this time to prove that this sequence change affects protein function or causes disease. Therefore, it has been classified as a Variant of Uncertain Significance. The 6 duplicated amino acid residues Pro278-Arg283 fall in the DNA binding domain of the TP53 protein (amino acids 102-292) (PMID: 8276238). Several missense substitutions at these six codons have been reported in affected patients (PMID: 10864200, 11370630, 15173255, 8688334) and have been shown experimentally to disrupt TP53 protein function (PMID: 17606709, 21343334). This sequence change has not been published in the literature and is not present in population databases. This sequence change inserts 18 nucleotides in exon 8 of the TP53 mRNA (c.831_848dupTCCTGGGAGAGACCGGCG). This leads to the insertion of 6 amino acid residues in the TP53 protein (p.Pro278_Arg283dup), but otherwise preserves the integrity of the reading frame. -
