Description

In a 26-year-old Polish patient with Cushing disease due to an ACTH-secreting pituitary adenoma (PITA1; 102200), Georgitsi et al. (2007) identified a heterozygous c.911G-A transition in exon 6 of the AIP gene, resulting in an arg304-to-gln (R304Q) substitution.

In a large Danish kindred comprising 52 family members spanning 5 generations, Dal et al. (2020) identified 31 individuals with heterozygosity for the R304Q mutation. Based on 2 cases of somatotropinomas among the mutation carriers, the disease penetrance was 6%. Two individuals with homozygosity for R304Q were reported in the gnomAD database.

Description

This variant was observed as part of a predisposition screen in an ostensibly healthy population. A literature search was performed for the gene, cDNA change, and amino acid change (where applicable). Publications were found based on this search. The evidence from the literature, in combination with allele frequency data from public databases where available, was sufficient to determine this variant is unlikely to cause disease. Therefore, this variant is classified as likely benign.

Description

The AIP c.911G>A (p.Arg304Gln) missense change has a maximum subpopulation frequency of 0.14% in gnomAD v2.1.1 (https://gnomad.broadinstitute.org). The in silico tool REVEL is inconclusive about a pathogenic or benign effect of this variant on protein function. A ß-galactosidase activity assay in yeast showed a mild reduction of ß-galactosidase activity compared to wildtype (PMID: 20506337). This variant has been reported in individuals with pituitary adenoma (PMID: 17360484, 17609395, 18381572, 19366855, 20506337). In summary, the evidence currently available is insufficient to determine the clinical significance of this variant. It has therefore been classified as of uncertain significance.
