Ambry Genetics | RCV000216539 | SCV000278021 | uncertain significance | Hereditary cancer-predisposing syndrome | 2015-08-27 | criteria provided, single submitter | clinical testing | The p.P203R variant (also known as c.608C>G), located in coding exon 5 of the STK11 gene, results from a C to G substitution at nucleotide position 608. The proline at codon 203 is replaced by arginine, an amino acid with dissimilar properties. This variant was not reported in population based cohorts in the following databases: Database of Single Nucleotide Polymorphisms (dbSNP), NHLBI Exome Sequencing Project (ESP), and 1000 Genomes Project. In the ESP, this variant was not observed in 5994 samples (11988 alleles) with coverage at this position. To date, this alteration has been detected with an allele frequency of approximately 0.001% (greater than 110000 alleles tested) in our clinical cohort. This amino acid position is highly conserved in available vertebrate species. In addition, the in silico prediction for this alteration is inconclusive. Since supporting evidence is limited at this time, the clinical significance of p.P203R remains unclear. |

RCV001854699 | SCV002115403 | uncertain significance | Peutz-Jeghers syndrome | 2021-04-27 | criteria provided, single submitter | clinical testing | 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. Algorithms developed to predict the effect of missense changes on protein structure and function (SIFT, PolyPhen-2, Align-GVGD) all suggest that this variant is likely to be tolerated, but these predictions have not been confirmed by published functional studies and their clinical significance is uncertain. This variant has not been reported in the literature in individuals with STK11-related conditions. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 233612). This variant is not present in population databases (ExAC no frequency). This sequence change replaces proline with arginine at codon 203 of the STK11 protein (p.Pro203Arg). The proline residue is highly conserved and there is a moderate physicochemical difference between proline and arginine. |
