Variant summary
Our verdict is Likely benign. The variant received -5 ACMG points: 0P and 5B. BP6BS1
The NM_020975.6(RET):c.235C>T(p.Arg79Trp) variant causes a missense change involving the alteration of a non-conserved nucleotide. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 0.000031 in 1,613,928 control chromosomes in the GnomAD database, with no homozygous occurrence. Variant has been reported in ClinVar as Conflicting classifications of pathogenicity (no stars). Another variant affecting the same amino acid position, but resulting in a different missense (i.e. R79Q) has been classified as Uncertain significance.

Multiple endocrine neoplasia, type 2 Uncertain:2
- -
This sequence change replaces arginine, which is basic and polar, with tryptophan, which is neutral and slightly polar, at codon 79 of the RET protein (p.Arg79Trp). This variant is present in population databases (rs537523906, gnomAD 0.04%), and has an allele count higher than expected for a pathogenic variant. This missense change has been observed in individual(s) with Hirschsprung disease (PMID: 26395553). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 405541). An algorithm developed to predict the effect of missense changes on protein structure and function (PolyPhen-2) suggests that this variant is likely to be disruptive. Experimental studies have shown that this missense change does not substantially affect RET function (PMID: 26395553). In summary, the available evidence is currently insufficient to determine the role of this variant in disease. Therefore, it has been classified as a Variant of Uncertain Significance. -
not provided Uncertain:2
In silico analysis supports that this missense variant does not alter protein structure/function; Identified in an individual with Hirschsprung disease (PMID: 26395553); Published functional studies demonstrate levels of phosphorylated RET and ERK similar to wildtype (PMID: 26395553); This variant is associated with the following publications: (PMID: 14633923, 26395553) -

Hirschsprung disease, susceptibility to, 1 Uncertain:1
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. However, the evidence from the literature, in combination with allele frequency data from public databases where available, was not sufficient to rule this variant in or out of causing disease. Therefore, this variant is classified as a variant of unknown significance. -
Renal hypodysplasia/aplasia 1 Uncertain:1
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). No publications were found based on this search. Allele frequency data from public databases did not allow this variant to be ruled in or out of causing disease. Therefore, this variant is classified as a variant of unknown significance. -
Pheochromocytoma Benign:1
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). No publications were found based on this search. Allele frequency data from public databases was too high to be consistent with this variant causing disease. Therefore, this variant is classified as benign. -
Multiple endocrine neoplasia Benign:1
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). No publications were found based on this search. Allele frequency data from public databases was too high to be consistent with this variant causing disease. Therefore, this variant is classified as benign. -
Hereditary cancer-predisposing syndrome Benign:1
This alteration is classified as benign based on a combination of the following: seen in unaffected individuals, population frequency, intact protein function, lack of segregation with disease, co-occurrence, RNA analysis, in silico models, amino acid conservation, lack of disease association in case-control studies, and/or the mechanism of disease or impacted region is inconsistent with a known cause of pathogenicity. -
