Modeling splicing is essential for tackling the challenge of variant interpretation as each nucleotide variation can be pathogenic by affecting pre-mRNA splicing via disruption/creation of splicing motifs such as 5’/3’ splice sites, branch sites or splicing regulatory elements. Unfortunately, most in silico tools focus on a specific type of splicing motif, which is why we developed the Splicing Prediction Pipeline (SPiP) to perform, in one single bioinformatic analysis based on machine learning approach, comprehensive assessment of variant effect on different splicing motifs. We gathered a curated set of 4,616 variants scattered all along the sequence of 227 genes, with their corresponding splicing studies. Bayesian analysis provided us the number of control variants, i.e. variants without impact on splicing, to mimic the deluge of variants from high throughput sequencing data. Results show that SPiP can deal with the diversity of splicing alterations, with 83.13% sensitivity and 99% specificity to detect spliceogenic variants. Overall performance as measured by area under the receiving operator curve was 0.986, significantly better than 0.965 spliceAI for the same dataset. SPiP lends itself to a unique suite for comprehensive prediction of spliceogenicity in the genomic medicine era.

Hereditary papillary renal cell carcinoma (HPRCC) is a rare inherited renal cancer syndrome characterized by bilateral and multifocal papillary type 1 renal tumors (PRCC1). Activating germline pathogenic variants of MET gene were identified in HPRCC families. We reviewed the medical and molecular records of a large French series of 158 patients screened for MET oncogenic variants (153 index-cases and five relatives). MET pathogenic variant rate was 10.4% (16/153) with 37.5% among patients with familial PRCC1 and 3.3% among patients with sporadic PRCC1 presentation. The phenotype in MET mutated cases was characteristic as PRCC1 tumors were mainly bilateral (82.3%) and multifocal (85.8%). Histologically, six out of seven patients with MET germline pathogenic variant harboured biphasic squamoid alveolar PRCC. Genetic screening identified in four index-cases a novel missense pathogenic variant within the tyrosine kinase domain: MET c.3389T>C, p.(Leu1130Ser). Functional assay confirmed its oncogenic effect with a constitutive phosphorylation of ERK protein and an abnormal focus formation induced. The genotype-phenotype correlation between MET pathogenic variants and PRCC1 presentation should encourage to widen the screening, especially toward non-familial PRCC1. This precise phenotype also constitutes a strong argument for the classification of novel missense variants within the tyrosine kinase domain when functional assays aren’t accessible.
