RCV001232906 | SCV001405478 | uncertain significance | EGFR-related lung cancer | 2024-07-15 | criteria provided, single submitter | clinical testing | This sequence change replaces methionine, which is neutral and non-polar, with leucine, which is neutral and non-polar, at codon 178 of the EGFR protein (p.Met178Leu). This variant is not present in population databases (gnomAD no frequency). This variant has not been reported in the literature in individuals affected with EGFR-related conditions. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 959532). An algorithm developed to predict the effect of missense changes on protein structure and function outputs the following: PolyPhen-2: "Benign". The leucine amino acid residue is found in multiple mammalian species, which suggests that this missense change does not adversely affect protein function. 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. |
Ambry Genetics | RCV004951387 | SCV005574713 | uncertain significance | Hereditary cancer-predisposing syndrome | 2024-11-24 | criteria provided, single submitter | clinical testing | The p.M178L variant (also known as c.532A>T), located in coding exon 4 of the EGFR gene, results from an A to T substitution at nucleotide position 532. The methionine at codon 178 is replaced by leucine, an amino acid with highly similar properties. This amino acid position is conserved. In addition, this alteration is predicted to be tolerated by in silico analysis. Based on the available evidence, the clinical significance of this variant remains unclear. |
