Description
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. Algorithms developed to predict the effect of sequence changes on RNA splicing suggest that this variant may create or strengthen a splice site. Experimental studies have shown that this missense change affects TP53 function (PMID: 12509279, 12826609, 15037740, 17401432, 23863845, 29979965, 30224644). Advanced modeling of experimental studies (such as gene expression, population dynamics, functional pathways, and cell-cycle effects in cell culture) performed at Invitae indicates that this missense variant is expected to disrupt TP53 protein function. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 458559). This variant has not been reported in the literature in individuals affected with TP53-related conditions. This variant is not present in population databases (gnomAD no frequency). This sequence change replaces serine, which is neutral and polar, with arginine, which is basic and polar, at codon 240 of the TP53 protein (p.Ser240Arg).
