Genes affected
RET (HGNC:9967): (ret proto-oncogene) This gene encodes a transmembrane receptor and member of the tyrosine protein kinase family of proteins. Binding of ligands such as GDNF (glial cell-line derived neurotrophic factor) and other related proteins to the encoded receptor stimulates receptor dimerization and activation of downstream signaling pathways that play a role in cell differentiation, growth, migration and survival. The encoded receptor is important in development of the nervous system, and the development of organs and tissues derived from the neural crest. This proto-oncogene can undergo oncogenic activation through both cytogenetic rearrangement and activating point mutations. Mutations in this gene are associated with Hirschsprung disease and central hypoventilation syndrome and have been identified in patients with renal agenesis. [provided by RefSeq, Sep 2017]

Significance:Likely benign
Review Status:criteria provided, single submitter
Collection Method:clinical testing

This alteration is classified as likely 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. -

RET-related disorder Uncertain:1
Mar 29, 2023
PreventionGenetics, part of Exact Sciences
Significance:Uncertain significance
Review Status:criteria provided, single submitter
Collection Method:clinical testing

The RET c.405C>T variant is not predicted to result in an amino acid change (p.=). This variant is predicted to introduce a cryptic splice site based on splicing prediction programs (Alamut Visual Plus v.1.6.1). However, these splicing prediction programs are not equivalent to functional evidence. This variant has been reported as a variant of uncertain significance in an individual with cancer (Supplement 2, eTable - Mandelker et al. 2017. PubMed ID: 28873162). This variant has also been reported as a somatic variant in colorectal carcinoma (Table S3 - Giannakis et al. 2016. PubMed ID: 27149842). This variant is reported in 0.14% of alleles in individuals of African descent in gnomAD (http://gnomad.broadinstitute.org/variant/10-43597857-C-T) and has conflicting interpretations in ClinVar, ranging from benign to uncertain (https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/clinvar/variation/141671/). Although we suspect that this variant may be benign, at this time, the clinical significance of this variant is uncertain due to the absence of conclusive functional and genetic evidence. -

In silico analysis, which includes splice predictors and evolutionary conservation, suggests this variant may impact gene splicing. In the absence of RNA/functional studies, the actual effect of this sequence change is unknown.; This variant is associated with the following publications: (PMID: 27149842) -
