About TP53

No gene-level summary was recorded for this case.

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.
01The reasoning

How it was classified

The recorded framework is ClinGen TP53 VCEP v2.4.0. The criteria and strengths shown below come from the saved assessment; this page does not recalculate the classification.

Recorded applied criteria

The applied criteria and their strengths are shown as assessed under the stated framework.

Pathogenic evidence criteria: 5 Benign evidence criteria: 0
Pathogenic criteria applied · 5
PS3Strong
PS3 · strong

In the TP53 functional worksheet, p.Arg248Leu is pre-assigned PS3. The compiled eligible assay results show this variant was non-functional in the Kato transactivation dataset and showed loss of function in the other eligible functional assays summarized for TP53, supporting a damaging effect on protein function.

PM1Moderate
PM1 · moderate

This missense variant affects TP53 codon 248, one of the codons explicitly specified by the TP53 VCEP for PM1 at moderate strength. The same amino acid change has also been observed 161 times in COSMIC, consistent with recurrence at this hotspot residue.

PM2Supporting
PM2 · supporting

This variant is absent from gnomAD v2.1 and gnomAD v4.1, which is below the TP53 VCEP PM2_Supporting threshold of less than 0.00003 overall and below the ancestry-group threshold of less than 0.00004 when multiple alleles are present.

PP3Moderate
PP3 · moderate

In the TP53 VCEP bioinformatic worksheet, NM_000546.5:c.743G>T (p.Arg248Leu) is pre-assigned PP3_moderate. The entry shows Align-GVGD class C65 and BayesDel 0.570318, which is above the TP53 VCEP PP3_Moderate threshold of 0.16, and SpliceAI predicts no meaningful splice effect (max delta score 0.01). REVEL is also high at 0.96, which is consistent with a damaging missense effect.

Recorded classification: Pathogenic

Tavtigian et.al., 2020 - Bayesian adaptation of Richards et.al., 2015 v2.4.0 point-based framework: PS3 strong (+4) + PM1 moderate (+2) + PM2 supporting (+1) + PP3 moderate (+2) + PP5 supporting (+1) = 10 points, which maps to Pathogenic.

The TP53 c.743G>T (p.Arg248Leu) variant has been observed in somatic cancers in COSMIC 161 times and has been reported in ClinVar with an expert panel pathogenic classification.

This variant is absent from gnomAD v2.1 and gnomAD v4.1, supporting rarity under the TP53 VCEP PM2_Supporting threshold.

In the TP53 VCEP functional worksheet, p.Arg248Leu is summarized as non-functional with loss-of-function results across eligible assays and is pre-assigned PS3, supporting a damaging effect on p53 function.

In the TP53 VCEP bioinformatic worksheet, this missense change is pre-assigned PP3_moderate with Align-GVGD class C65 and BayesDel 0.570318, while SpliceAI predicts no meaningful splice impact with a maximum delta score of 0.01; REVEL is also high at 0.96.
