The PIK3CA c.2740G>A (p.Gly914Arg) variant has been observed in somatic cancers in COSMIC (9 occurrences) and has been reported in ClinVar with an expert panel pathogenic classification.
clinvar ↗This variant is absent from gnomAD v2.1 and gnomAD v4.1, supporting rarity in population controls and meeting the Brain Malformations VCEP PM2_Supporting requirement.
gnomad_v2 ↗ gnomad_v4 ↗ cspec ↗In a published functional study of megalencephaly-associated PI3K-pathway variants, mutant lymphoblastoid cell lines showed increased PIP3 and increased downstream S6 and 4E-BP1 phosphorylation, consistent with gain-of-function pathway activation, although an exact p.Gly914Arg-specific validated assay was not identified.
PMID:22729224 ↗REVEL was 0.871, BayesDel was 0.382681, and SpliceAI predicted no significant splice impact with a maximum delta score of 0.13; however, this VCEP does not apply PP3 to gain-of-function missense variants.
