GeneDx RCV000497546 SCV000590605 pathogenic not provided 2017-06-21 criteria provided, single submitter clinical testing The W566R variant in the PDGFRB gene has not been reported previously as a germline pathogenic variant nor as a benign variant, to our knowledge. However, functional studies in tumor cells showed W566R was constitutively activated in contrast to the unstimulated wild-type receptor and was constitutively phosphorylated on tyrosines in NIH3T3 fibroblasts (Arts et al., 2017). The W566R variant is not observed in large population cohorts (Lek et al., 2016; 1000 Genomes Consortium et al., 2015; Exome Variant Server). The W566R variant is a non-conservative amino acid substitution, which occurs at a position that is conserved across species. In silico analysis predicts this variant is probably damaging to the protein structure/function. We interpret W566R as a pathogenic variant

Victorian Clinical Genetics Services, Murdoch Childrens Research Institute RCV001541889 SCV002768630 pathogenic Skeletal overgrowth-craniofacial dysmorphism-hyperelastic skin-white matter lesions syndrome 2020-05-21 criteria provided, single submitter clinical testing Based on the classification scheme VCGS_Germline_v1.1.1, this variant is classified as Pathogenic. Following criteria are met: 0103 - Both loss- and gain-of-function are known mechanisms of disease for this gene. Loss-of-function: idiopathic basal ganglia calcification (IBGC) syndrome Type 4. Gain-of-Function: infantile myofibromatosis, Penttinen syndrome, and Kosaki overgrowth syndrome (PMID: 31004414) (N) 0107 - This gene is known to be associated with autosomal dominant disease. (N) 0200 - Variant is predicted to result in a missense amino acid change from tryptophan to arginine (exon 12). (N) 0251 - Variant is heterozygous. (N) 0301 - Variant is absent from gnomAD. (P) 0501 - Missense variant consistently predicted to be damaging by multiple in-silico tools or highly conserved with a major amino acid change. (P) 0600 - Variant is located in an annotated domain or motif (juxtamembrane domain (PMID: 30941910). (N) 0705 - No comparable variants have previous evidence for pathogenicity. (N) 0801 - Strong previous evidence of pathogenicity in unrelated individuals (ClinVar, Minatogawa, M. et al. (2017), PMID: 28639748, 30941910). (P) 1001 - Strong functional evidence supporting abnormal protein function. Functional studies on patient cells indicated that the variant constitutively activates the PI3K-AKT pathway (PMID: 30941910). (P) Legend: (P) - Pathogenic, (N) - Neutral, (B) - Benign
Demoulin lab, University of Louvain RCV000454367 SCV000484407 pathogenic Infantile myofibromatosis 2016-12-01 no assertion criteria provided research The p.W566R mutation was found in one patient with myofibromatosis. It activates PDGFRB signaling in cell culture (gain of function). We sequenced PDGFRB in myofibromatosis cases using the Ion Torrent technology. All variants were confirmed by an alternative method (allele specific PCR or Sanger sequencing). Mutants were functionally characterized in experiments based on cell transfection. In our patient, the p.W566R mutation was associated with a second mutation, c.1998C>A (p.N666K), which also activates the receptor. The two mutations were found in cis (on the same PDGFRB allele).
