Invitae RCV000705316 SCV000834307 uncertain significance Li-Fraumeni syndrome 2021-07-08 criteria provided, single submitter clinical testing This variant is not present in population databases (ExAC no frequency). This sequence change replaces histidine with leucine at codon 179 of the TP53 protein (p.His179Leu). The histidine residue is highly conserved and there is a moderate physicochemical difference between histidine and leucine. This variant has not been reported in the literature in individuals with TP53-related disease. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 376608). Experimental studies have shown that this missense change impairs transcriptional transactivation activity of the TP53 protein, reduces apoptosis activity and confers cisplatin-sensitivity and increased cell mobility to cells carrying this variant, and acts in a dominant-negative fashion to inhibit function of wild-type protein (PMID: 12826609, 16861262, 22114072, 23713777). In addition, cells carrying this variant transplanted in mice induce tumor formation more rapidly than cells carrying wild-type TP53 (PMID: 9049183). 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. Variants that disrupt the 179 amino acid residue in TP53 have been observed in affected individuals (PMID: 19556618, 16633321, 18511570, 25433984). This suggests that it is a clinically significant residue, and that other variants that disrupt this residue are likely to be causative of disease.
Ambry Genetics RCV002348143 SCV002647130 likely pathogenic Hereditary cancer-predisposing syndrome 2023-06-13 criteria provided, single submitter clinical testing The p.H179L variant (also known as c.536A>T), located in coding exon 4 of the TP53 gene, results from an A to T substitution at nucleotide position 536. The histidine at codon 179 is replaced by leucine, an amino acid with similar properties. This amino acid position is highly conserved in available vertebrate species. This variant is in the DNA binding domain of the TP53 protein and is reported to have partially 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). Cells carrying this variant were shown to induce tumor formation when transplanted into mice (Cardinali M et al. Mol Carcinog, 1997 Feb;18:78-88). Two other alterations at the same codon, p.H179Q and p.H179R have been described in individuals with TP53-related disease (Petitjean A et al. IARC TP53 database [version R19, August 2018]. Hum Mutat. 2007 Jun;28(6):622-9;Gonzalez KD et al. J. Med. Genet. 2009 Oct; 46(10):689-93). This variant is considered to be rare based on population cohorts in the Genome Aggregation Database (gnomAD). This amino acid position is highly conserved in available vertebrate species. In addition, this alteration is predicted to be deleterious by in silico analysis. Based on the majority of available evidence to date, this variant is likely to be pathogenic.
