## Summary

H178D is a missense variant in TP53: it changes a single amino acid in the protein the gene encodes. ClinVar classifies it as pathogenic for Li-Fraumeni Syndrome (reviewed by expert panel).

## ClinVar classifications

| Condition                                                                                                                                                                         | Classification | Review status                             | Submissions  | Last evaluated |

Classifications as ClinVar records them in release 2026-10-12. ClinVar updates them as evidence is reviewed.

## ACMG/AMP criteria

The ACMG/AMP criteria H178D meets, from its predicted effect in TP53, gnomAD and ClinVar.

| Criterion                                       | Strength   | Rests on                                       |
| ----------------------------------------------- | ---------- | ---------------------------------------------- |
| PP5 A reputable source reports it as pathogenic | Supporting | ClinVar: Pathogenic (reviewed by expert panel) |

On these criteria alone: uncertain significance.

Assessed automatically, without functional, computational or family evidence. Not a clinical classification.

## Population frequency

How often H178D is seen among the people whose exomes and genomes gnomAD 4.1 brings together.

| Dataset        | Allele frequency         | Allele count   | Homozygotes | Commonest in                     |

## Limitations

This page describes publicly available information about a genetic variant. It is not a diagnosis, and it says nothing about whether you or anyone else carries this variant.

Classifications come from ClinVar and change as new evidence is reviewed. A classification here may differ from the one in ClinVar today, or from the one a laboratory reports.

Whole genome sequencing with short reads can miss or miscall some variants, particularly in repeated or highly similar stretches of DNA and in large insertions, deletions or rearrangements.

If you have questions about a variant in your own results or in your family, talk to a genetic counsellor or your doctor.
