Genes affected
STK11 (HGNC:11389): (serine/threonine kinase 11) The protein encoded by this gene is a serine/threonine kinase that regulates cell polarity and energy metabolism and functions as a tumor suppressor. Mutations in this gene have been associated with the autosomal dominant Peutz-Jeghers syndrome, as well as with skin, pancreatic, and testicular cancers. [provided by RefSeq, May 2022]

Hereditary cancer-predisposing syndrome Uncertain:1
Aug 01, 2019
Color Diagnostics, LLC DBA Color Health
Significance:Uncertain significance
Review Status:criteria provided, single submitter
Collection Method:clinical testing

This variant deletes a nucleotide at the +8 position of intron 3 of the STK11 gene. Splice site prediction tools are inconclusive regarding the impact of this variant on RNA splicing. To our knowledge, functional assays have not been performed for this variant nor has this variant been reported in individuals affected with hereditary cancer in the literature. This variant has been identified in 2/183100 chromosomes in the general population by the Genome Aggregation Database (gnomAD). 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. -

Apr 29, 2025
Women's Health and Genetics/Laboratory Corporation of America, LabCorp
Significance:Likely benign
Review Status:criteria provided, single submitter
Collection Method:clinical testing

Variant summary: STK11 c.464+8delC alters a non-conserved nucleotide located at a position not widely known to affect splicing. Consensus agreement among computation tools predict no significant impact on normal splicing. However, these predictions have yet to be confirmed by functional studies. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 1.1e-05 in 183100 control chromosomes. The available data on variant occurrences in the general population are insufficient to allow any conclusion about variant significance. To our knowledge, no occurrence of c.464+8delC in individuals affected with Peutz-Jeghers Syndrome and no experimental evidence demonstrating its impact on protein function have been reported. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 237802). Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as likely benign. -
