NM_000314.8:c.74T>C
COSMIC ID: COSM1561217
Variant of Uncertain Significance (VUS)
This PTEN missense variant (c.74T>C; p.L25S) is absent in population databases (PM2_Supporting), predicted deleterious by REVEL (PP3_Supporting), and reported as pathogenic by one source (PP5_Supporting). No functional, segregation, de novo, or frequency data support a definitive classification. According to VCEP and PTEN-specific guidance, PS3 is not applied. With only three supporting criteria, the variant remains a Variant of Uncertain Significance (VUS).

The c.74T>C (p.L25S) alteration is located in exon 1 (coding exon 1) of the PTEN gene. This alteration results from a T to C substitution at nucleotide position 74, causing the leucine (L) at amino acid position 25 to be replaced by a serine (S). This variant was not reported in population-based cohorts in the Genome Aggregation Database (gnomAD). Another alteration at the same codon, c.75G>T (p.L25F), has been detected in multiple individuals with features consistent with PTEN hamartoma tumor syndrome (Tan, 2011; Ciaccio, 2019; Ronzano, 2022). This amino acid position is highly conserved in available vertebrate species. This missense alteration is located in a region that has a low rate of benign missense variation (Lek, 2016; Firth, 2009). This alteration is predicted to be deleterious by in silico analysis. Based on the available evidence, this alteration is classified as pathogenic.
Clinical Statement
This variant has been reported in ClinVar as Uncertain significance (1 clinical laboratories) and as Pathogenic (1 clinical laboratories).

VCEP Guidelines

Applied ACMG/AMP Criteria (VCEP Specific) VCEP Guidelines
PVS1
PVS1 (Not Applied) Strength Modified
According to VCEP guidelines, the rule for PVS1 is: "Null Variant (nonsense, fs, start codon, splicing +1/2, startgain, single or multi-exon deletion) in a gene where LOF is a known mechanism of disease". The evidence for this variant shows: it is a missense change (L25S), not a null variant. Therefore, this criterion is not applied.
PS1
PS1 (Not Applied) Strength Modified
According to VCEP guidelines, the rule for PS1 is: "Same amino acid change as a previously established pathogenic variant regardless of nucleotide change OR different variant at same nucleotide position as a pathogenic splicing variant, where in silico models predict impact equal to or greater than the known pathogenic variant." The evidence for this variant shows: no other variant at codon 25 (L25) has been previously established as pathogenic. Therefore, this criterion is not applied.
PS2
PS2 (Not Applied) Strength Modified
According to VCEP guidelines, the rule for PS2 is: "De novo (both maternity and paternity confirmed) observation in a patient with the disease and no family history." The evidence for this variant shows: no de novo data available. Therefore, this criterion is not applied.
PS3
PS3 (Not Applied) Strength Modified
According to PTEN pre-processing, the finding for PS3 is: "Result: High confidence not TRUE ('FALSE'), PS3 rule not applied." The evidence for this variant shows: no well-established functional assay evidence. Therefore, this criterion is not applied.
PS4
PS4 (Not Applied) Strength Modified
According to VCEP guidelines, the rule for PS4 is: "Prevalence of the variant in affected individuals is significantly increased compared with the prevalence in controls or probands with specificity score ≥4". The evidence for this variant shows: no case-control or proband specificity data provided. Therefore, this criterion is not applied.
PM1
PM1 (Not Applied) Strength Modified
According to VCEP guidelines, the rule for PM1 is: "Located in a mutational hot spot and/or critical and well-established functional domain. Defined to include residues in catalytic motifs: 90-94, 123-130, 166-168." The evidence for this variant shows: residue 25 is outside these regions. Therefore, this criterion is not applied.
PM2
PM2 (Supporting) Strength Modified
According to VCEP guidelines, the rule for PM2 is: "Absent in population Databases present at <0.00001 (0.001%) allele frequency in gnomAD or another large sequenced population." The evidence for this variant shows: it is absent from gnomAD (MAF=0%). Therefore, this criterion is applied at Supporting strength.
PM3
PM3 (Not Applied) Strength Modified
According to VCEP guidelines, the rule for PM3 is: "Observed in trans with a pathogenic or likely pathogenic PTEN variant in a recessive disorder." The evidence for this variant shows: no data on trans configuration with another variant. Therefore, this criterion is not applied.
PM4
PM4 (Not Applied) Strength Modified
According to VCEP guidelines, the rule for PM4 is: "Protein length changes due to in-frame deletions/insertions in a non-repeat region or stop-loss variants." The evidence for this variant shows: it is a missense change, not an in-frame indel. Therefore, this criterion is not applied.
PM5
PM5 (Not Applied) Strength Modified
According to VCEP guidelines, the rule for PM5 is: "Missense change at an amino acid residue where a different missense change determined to be pathogenic has been seen before." The evidence for this variant shows: no other missense at residue 25 reported as pathogenic. Therefore, this criterion is not applied.
PM6
PM6 (Not Applied) Strength Modified
According to VCEP guidelines, the rule for PM6 is: "Assumed de novo occurrence in a patient with the disease and no family history (without confirmation of paternity and maternity)." The evidence for this variant shows: no de novo information. Therefore, this criterion is not applied.

According to VCEP guidelines, the rule for PP2 is: "Missense variant in a gene that has a low rate of benign missense variation and where missense variants are a common mechanism of disease." The evidence for this variant shows: no specific data on benign missense rate in PTEN. Therefore, this criterion is not applied.
PP3
PP3 (Supporting)
According to VCEP guidelines, the rule for PP3 is: "Multiple lines of computational evidence support a deleterious effect on the gene or gene product. Missense variants: REVEL score > 0.7."
