ClinGen TP53 Variant Curation Expert Panel, ClinGen RCV001527088 SCV001737927 pathogenic Li-Fraumeni syndrome 1 2021-04-20 reviewed by expert panel curation This variant has >10 observations as a somatic hotspot variant in tumors (PM1; cancerhotspots.org v(2)). Transactivation assays show a low functioning allele according to Kato, et al. and there is evidence of a dominant negative effect and loss of function according to Giacomelli, et al. (PS3; PMID: 12826609, 30224644). This variant has been reported in 1 proband meeting Classic LFS criteria and 4 probands meeting Chompret criteria (PS4; PMID: 11370630, 25945745, NIH, Invitae, Ambry). This variant was found to co-segregate with disease in multiple affected family members, with 5 or 6 meioses observed (PP1_Moderate; NIH, Invitae). There is one de novo observation in a proband with breast and thyroid cancer in her 30s without parental confirmation (PM6_Supporting; GeneDx). In summary, TP53 c.711G>A (p.Met237Ile) meets criteria to be classified as pathogenic for Li-Fraumeni syndrome. ACMG/AMP criteria applied, as specified by the TP53 Variant Curation Expert Panel: PM1, PS3, PS4, PP1_Moderate, PM6_Supporting.
Ambry Genetics RCV000132084 SCV000187148 pathogenic Hereditary cancer-predisposing syndrome 2022-11-28 criteria provided, single submitter clinical testing The p.M237I pathogenic mutation (also known as c.711G>A), located in coding exon 6 of the TP53 gene, results from a G to A substitution at nucleotide position 711. The methionine at codon 237 is replaced by isoleucine, an amino acid with highly similar properties. This variant has been reported as a germline alteration in a classic LFS case (Fortes FP et al. Braz. J. Med. Biol. Res. 2015 Jul;48:610-5) as well as in one Li-Fraumeni-like family, and identified in multiple individuals meeting Chompret criteria (Bougeard G et al. J Med Genet. 2001 Apr;38(4):253-7; Ambry Internal Data). This variant is in the DNA binding domain of the TP53 protein and is reported to have loss of transactivation in yeast based assays (IARC TP53 database: 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 (Kotler E et al. Mol. Cell. 2018 Jul;71:178-190.e8; Giacomelli AO et al. Nat. Genet. 2018 Oct;50:1381-1387). Several other in vitro studies have shown that the p.M237I alteration is dominant negative and results in a severe deficiency of p53 transactivation activity, causes radio-resistance with increased frequency of spontaneous and radiation-induced mutations and loss of the ability to inhibit DNA synthesis (Monti P et al. Mol Cancer Res. 2011 Mar;9(3):271-9; Dearth LR et al. Carcinogenesis. 2007 Feb;28:289-98; Little JB et al. J Biol Chem. 1995 May12;270(19):11033-6; Vousden KH et al. J Gen Virol. 1993 May;74 (Pt 5):803-10; Wiese C et al. Cancer Res. 2001 Feb 1;61(3):1129-37). Based on internal structural analysis, p.M237I disrupts important hydrogen bonding interactions and the local structure of a functionally important loop near a zinc-binding motif within the DNA binding site of TP53 (Ambry internal data; Golovenko D et al. Structure. 2018 Sep 4;26(9):1237-1250; Lukman S et al. PLoS One. 2013 Nov 12;8(11); Butler JS and Loh SN. Biochemistry. 2003 Mar 4;42(8):2396-403; Bullock AN, Henckel J, Fersht AR. Oncogene. 2000 Mar 2;19(10):1245-56). Based on the supporting evidence, this alteration is interpreted as a disease-causing mutation.
Labcorp Genetics (formerly Invitae), Labcorp RCV000464261 SCV000545260 pathogenic Li-Fraumeni syndrome 2024-12-04 criteria provided, single submitter clinical testing This sequence change replaces methionine, which is neutral and non-polar, with isoleucine, which is neutral and non-polar, at codon 237 of the TP53 protein (p.Met237Ile). This variant is present in population databases (rs587782664, gnomAD 0.006%). This missense change has been observed in individuals with Li-Fraumeni syndrome (PMID: 11370630; internal data). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 142714). Invitae Evidence Modeling incorporating data from in vitro 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: 11370630, 12826609, 17606709, 21343334, 29979965, 30224644). This variant disrupts the p.Met237 amino acid residue in TP53. Other variant(s) that disrupt this residue have been determined to be pathogenic (PMID: 11370630, 12826609, 17606709, 21343334, 29979965, 30224644; internal data). 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.
