Labcorp Genetics (formerly Invitae), Labcorp RCV000527533 SCV000629826 pathogenic Li-Fraumeni syndrome 2024-03-07 criteria provided, single submitter clinical testing This sequence change replaces alanine, which is neutral and non-polar, with valine, which is neutral and non-polar, at codon 159 of the TP53 protein (p.Ala159Val). This variant is not present in population databases (gnomAD no frequency). This missense change has been observed in individual(s) with clinical features of Li-Fraumeni syndrome (Invitae). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 458545). Advanced modeling performed at Invitae incorporating data from internal and/or published experimental studies (PMID: 12826609, 29979965, 30224644) indicates that this missense variant is expected to disrupt TP53 function with a positive predictive value of 97.5%. Experimental studies have shown that this missense change affects TP53 function (PMID: 12826609, 29979965, 30224644). This variant disrupts the p.Ala159 amino acid residue in TP53. Other variant(s) that disrupt this residue have been determined to be pathogenic (PMID: 27545002, 29070607, 32658383). This suggests that this residue is clinically significant, and that variants that disrupt this residue are likely to be disease-causing. For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic.
GeneDx RCV001764539 SCV002008431 likely pathogenic not provided 2021-09-29 criteria provided, single submitter clinical testing Published functional studies demonstrate a damaging effect: non-functional transactivation and impaired growth suppression activities (Kato 2003, Kotler 2018).; Not observed at significant frequency in large population cohorts (Lek et al., 2016); In silico analysis supports that this missense variant has a deleterious effect on protein structure/function; This variant is associated with the following publications: (PMID: 17724467, 20505364, 22862161, 12826609, 16322298, 29979965, 15510160)
Ambry Genetics RCV002341276 SCV002638661 pathogenic Hereditary cancer-predisposing syndrome 2021-12-03 criteria provided, single submitter clinical testing The p.A159V pathogenic mutation (also known as c.476C>T), located in coding exon 4 of the TP53 gene, results from a C to T substitution at nucleotide position 476. The alanine at codon 159 is replaced by valine, an amino acid with similar properties. This variant is in the DNA binding domain of the TP53 protein and is reported to have non-functional transactivation in yeast based assays (Kato S et al. Proc. Natl. Acad. Sci. USA. 2003 Jul;100:8424-9). Studies conducted in human cell lines indicate this alteration is deficient at growth suppression and has a dominant negative effect (Kotler E et al. Mol.Cell. 2018 Jul;71:178-190.e8; Giacomelli AO et al. Nat. Genet. 2018 Oct;50:1381-1387). This alteration has been observed numerous times as a somatic mutation in the cancerhotspots.org database (Chang MT et al. Cancer Discov. 2018 02;8:174-183). This amino acid position is well conserved in available vertebrate species. In addition, this alteration is predicted to be deleterious by in silico analysis. Based on the supporting evidence, this alteration is interpreted as a disease-causing mutation.

Myriad Genetics, Inc. RCV004023788 SCV004932438 likely pathogenic Li-Fraumeni syndrome 1 2024-02-14 criteria provided, single submitter clinical testing This variant is considered likely pathogenic. Functional studies indicate this variant impacts protein function [PMID: 20505364, 29979965]. This variant is expected to disrupt protein structure [Myriad internal data].
