Invitae RCV001205381 SCV001376634 pathogenic PTEN hamartoma tumor syndrome 2023-07-29 criteria provided, single submitter clinical testing Experimental studies have shown that this missense change affects PTEN function (PMID: 10866302). An algorithm developed to predict the effect of missense changes on protein structure and function (PolyPhen-2) suggests that this variant is likely to be disruptive. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 936561). This missense change has been observed in individual(s) with PTEN-related conditions (Invitae). In at least one individual the variant was observed to be de novo. This variant is not present in population databases (gnomAD no frequency). This sequence change replaces cysteine, which is neutral and slightly polar, with tyrosine, which is neutral and polar, at codon 71 of the PTEN protein (p.Cys71Tyr). For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic.
ARUP Laboratories, Molecular Genetics and Genomics, ARUP Laboratories RCV001812250 SCV001473068 uncertain significance not provided 2020-06-17 criteria provided, single submitter clinical testing The PTEN c.212G>A; p.Cys71Tyr variant is reported in the literature in an individual referred for unspecified clinical PTEN testing (Pilarski 2011) and also in a glioma tumor sample (Kato 2000). This variant is absent from general population databases (Exome Variant Server, Genome Aggregation Database), indicating it is not a common polymorphism. The cysteine at codon 71 is highly conserved, and computational analyses (SIFT, PolyPhen-2) predict that this variant is deleterious. Further, functional characterization of the purified p.Cys71Tyr protein showed loss of enzymatic activity (Kato 2000), though this finding has not been confirmed by other assays. While existing evidence suggests a possible role of p.Cys71Tyr variant in disease, due to limited information, its clinical significance is uncertain at this time. References: Kato H et al.
