TP53 encodes the p53 tumor suppressor protein, a transcription factor that responds to cellular stress such as DNA damage by switching on genes that trigger cell cycle arrest, DNA repair, senescence, or programmed cell death. In healthy cells, p53 is kept at low levels by constant degradation, but stress signals stabilize and activate it to protect against damaged cells surviving and dividing. Inherited mutations in TP53 cause Li-Fraumeni syndrome, a condition marked by a high risk of developing multiple cancers at a young age. TP53 is the most commonly mutated gene across human cancers, and loss of its normal function promotes tumor growth, spread, drug resistance, and genomic instability.

This variant

This TP53 variant occurs in a gene encoding the stress-responsive p53 tumor suppressor, whose inherited disease-associated mutations cause Li-Fraumeni syndrome and predispose to multiple early-onset cancers.

Likely Benign: PM1 and PM2 supporting plus PP3 supporting were outweighed by BS3 strong and BP6 supporting benign under the TP53 VCEP point framework.
Classification rationale
PM1PM2PP3 BS3BP6 Likely Benign
TP53 c.760A>G missense · exon 7

PM1 supporting: p.Ile254Val has two somatic Cancer Hotspots occurrences. PM2 supporting: gnomAD v4.1 total allele frequency is 6.82086e-06. PP3 supporting: the VCEP assigns PP3 with Class C25 and BayesDel 0.17079. BS3 strong: the VCEP worksheet records Functional Kato data and no LOF in most eligible assays. BP6 supporting benign: an expert-panel ClinVar record classifies the variant as Likely benign.

PM1 + PM2 + PP3 + BS3 + BP6 → Likely Benign
LYFE Sciences is an AI system, and it can make mistakes. Criteria may be applied incorrectly, sources may be misread, and a confident-looking classification can still be wrong. Double-check every criterion and its underlying evidence before relying on any call.

Strength Supporting Moderate Strong Very strong
PM1 supporting Pathogenic
Met at supporting: p.Ile254Val has 2 somatic occurrences for the same amino-acid change, within the VCEP's 2-9 Cancer Hotspots threshold.
ClinGen TP53 VCEP PM1 rules: residue 254 is not among the explicitly listed codons 175, 245, 248, 249, 273, and 282; the alternate hotspot path permits supporting strength for 2-9 somatic occurrences of the same amino-acid change.ClinVar expert-panel criterion signal states: "this variant has 2 somatic occurrences for the same amino acid change in cancerhotspots".vcep_materials.json domain_tables is empty for TP53; therefore the authoritative complete domain-table list contains no additional entry to match against residue 254.
PM2 supporting Pathogenic
Met at supporting: gnomAD v4.1 total AF is 6.82086e-06, below the TP53 VCEP PM2 threshold of 0.00003.
gnomAD v4.1 all-comers: total AF 6.82086e-06 (11/1,612,700 alleles), highest observed European non-Finnish AF 9.32959e-06 (11/1,179,044 alleles), maximum group FAF 5.01e-06, homozygotes 0.The governing VCEP rule does not specify a non-cancer or exome-only population source for PM2; gnomAD v4.1 all-comers is therefore the default source under the requested source-selection rule.
PP3 supporting Pathogenic
Met at supporting strength: VCEP Table S2 pre-assigns PP3 for c.760A>G, with Class C25 and BayesDel 0.17079 meeting the >=0.16 rule.
ClinGen TP53 VCEP Supplementary Table S2, PP3-BP4-codes.xlsx, matching row: c.760A>G | p.Ile254Val | Class C25 | BayesDel 0.17079 | PP3.The VCEP PP3 supporting rule for missense variants requires aGVGD class C25-C55 and BayesDel score >= 0.16; the governing table assigns Class C25 and BayesDel 0.17079.SpliceAI result for NM_000546.6:c.760A>G: DS_AG 0.003, DS_AL 0.000, DS_DG 0.000, DS_DL 0.000; maximum delta score 0.003, below the VCEP splice-effect threshold of 0.2.
BS3 strong Benign
Met (strong): I254V is pre-assigned BS3 with Functional Kato data and no LOF in the majority of available eligible assays.
Functional-worksheet.xlsx, Supplementary Table S3, row I254V: Kato class Functional; Funk class noLOF; Giacomelli class noLOF; Kotler class noLOF; Kawaguchi class NA; preliminary functional code BS3.Flowchart-for-application-of-functional-rule-codes.pdf: eligible functional studies include Kato, Funk, Giacomelli, Kotler, and Kawaguchi; no variant-specific I254V row is present.PMID:12826609 paper extract: the exact p.I254V variant is not explicitly mentioned; the paper describes the systematic yeast transactivation assay underlying the Kato classification.
BP6 supporting Benign
Not applicable: the TP53 VCEP explicitly prohibits use of BP6.
