Description
Variant summary: TP53 c.672+1G>T is located in a canonical splice-site and is predicted to affect mRNA splicing resulting in a significantly altered protein due to either exon skipping, shortening, or inclusion of intronic material. Several computational tools predict a significant impact on normal splicing: two predict the variant abolishes a 5' splicing donor site. However, these predictions have yet to be confirmed by functional studies. The variant was absent in 251208 control chromosomes (gnomAD). c.672+1G>T has been reported in the literature in multiple individuals affected with primary tumors belonging to the Li-Fraumeni Syndrome (LFS) spectrum (e.g. Achatz_2006, Fitarelli-Kiehl_2015, Eccles_2016, Wilson_2010, Renaux-Petel_2017, Pondrom_2020). These data indicate that the variant is likely to be associated with disease. To our knowledge, no experimental evidence demonstrating an impact on protein function has been reported. One clinical diagnostic laboratory has submitted clinical-significance assessments for this variant in the germline state to ClinVar after 2014 without evidence for independent evaluation, and classified the variant as likely pathogenic. Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as pathogenic.
