Description

In a screen of 108 ACTH-secreting pituitary adenomas (PITA4; 219090), Ma et al. (2015) identified 17 different heterozygous somatic mutations in the USP8 gene, including a c.2159C-G somatic mutation, resulting in a pro720-to-arg (P720R), as 1 of 3 recurrent mutations accounting for over 77% of the USP8-mutated tumors. None of the 17 mutations were found in the dbSNP (build 138) or 1000 Genomes Project databases. Functional studies in 293T cells showed that the mutant failed to bind 14-3-3 protein, and in HeLa cells, the mutant showed reduced EGFR ubiquitination compared to wildtype, indicating that the mutation results in a gain of function.

By Sanger sequencing in 134 corticotroph adenomas from patients with Cushing disease, Perez-Rivas et al. (2015) identified USP8 mutations in 48 tumors, including the P720R mutation in 2 (4.1%).
