page$variant$nameSummary
R342Efs*3 is a frameshift variant in TP53: it adds or removes DNA letters in a way that shifts how the rest of the gene's code is read. ClinVar classifies it as pathogenic or likely pathogenic for Li-Fraumeni Syndrome (criteria provided, multiple submitters, no conflicts).
ClinVar classifications

| Li-Fraumeni SyndromeClinVar VCV000428885 (opens in a new tab) | Pathogenic/likely pathogenic | 2 stars out of 4criteria provided, multiple submitters, no conflicts | 2 submissions | 19 December 2025 |
Classifications as ClinVar records them in release 2026-10-12. ClinVar updates them as evidence is reviewed.
ACMG/AMP criteria
The ACMG/AMP criteria R342Efs*3 meets, from its predicted effect in TP53, gnomAD and ClinVar.
| Criterion | Strength | Points | Rests on |
|---|---|---|---|
| PVS1Null variant where loss of function causes disease | Very strong | +8 | frameshift_variant on NM_000546.6Expected to cause nonsense-mediated decayWhether loss of function causes disease in this gene was not checked |
| PM2Absent or very rare in population databases | Supporting | +1 | Not seen in gnomAD exomes, gnomAD genomes |
| PP5A reputable source reports it as pathogenic | Supporting | Not counted | ClinVar: Pathogenic/likely pathogenic (criteria provided, multiple submitters, no conflicts) |
On these criteria alone: +9 points, likely pathogenic.
Assessed automatically, without functional, computational or family evidence. Not a clinical classification.
Population frequency
How often R342Efs*3 is seen among the people whose exomes and genomes gnomAD 4.1 brings together.
| Dataset | Allele frequency | Allele count | Homozygotes | Commonest in |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| gnomAD exomes | Not seen | 0 of 0 | 0 | |
| gnomAD genomes | Not seen | 0 of 0 | 0 |
Figures from gnomAD 4.1, as gnomAD publishes them. Groups are genetic ancestry groups as gnomAD infers them. They describe the variant in gnomAD's populations, not anyone's result.
Where it lies in TP53
R342Efs*3 lies in exon 10 of the 11 in TP53's MANE Select transcript, NM_000546.6.

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.
