Variant summary
Our verdict is Likely benign. Variant got -5 ACMG points: 2P and 7B. PM5BP4_ModerateBP6BS1
The NM_020975.6(RET):c.539G>A(p.Arg180Gln) variant causes a missense change involving the alteration of a non-conserved nucleotide. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 0.000039 in 1,614,032 control chromosomes in the GnomAD database, with no homozygous occurrence. In-silico tool predicts a benign outcome for this variant. 13/21 in silico tools predict a benign outcome for this variant. 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. R180P) has been classified as Likely pathogenic.

Multiple endocrine neoplasia, type 2 Uncertain:1Benign:1
This missense variant replaces arginine with glutamine at codon 180 of the RET protein. Computational prediction suggests that this variant may not impact protein structure and function (internally defined REVEL score threshold <= 0.5, PMID: 27666373). To our knowledge, functional studies have not been reported for this variant. This variant has not been reported in individuals affected with MEN2 or medullary thyroid carcinoma. This variant has been reported in an individual affected with Hirschsprung disease (PMID: 10790203). This variant has been identified in 37/282728 chromosomes in the general population by the Genome Aggregation Database (gnomAD). The available evidence is insufficient to determine the role of this variant in disease conclusively. Therefore, this variant is classified as a Variant of Uncertain Significance. -

Hirschsprung disease Uncertain:1
Low GERP score may suggest that this variant may belong in a lower pathogenicity class -
Familial medullary thyroid carcinoma Uncertain:1
This variant was determined to be of uncertain significance according to ACMG Guidelines, 2015 [PMID:25741868]. -
not provided Uncertain:1
The RET c.539G>A; p.Arg180Gln variant (rs370736139) is reported in the literature in an individual affected with Hirschsprung disease (Hofstra 2000). This variant is also reported in ClinVar (Variation ID: 161360). This variant is found in the Latino population with an allele frequency of 0.08% (27/35,432 alleles) in the Genome Aggregation Database. Computational analyses are uncertain whether this variant is neutral or deleterious (REVEL: 0.223). Due to limited information, the clinical significance of this variant is uncertain at this time.

not specified Benign:1
Variant summary: RET c.539G>A (p.Arg180Gln) results in a conservative amino acid change located in the Cadherins domain profile (IPR002126) of the encoded protein sequence. Four of five in-silico tools predict a benign effect of the variant on protein function. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 0.00014 in 251346 control chromosomes, predominantly at a frequency of 0.00072 within the Latino subpopulation in the gnomAD database. The observed variant frequency within Latino control individuals in the gnomAD database is approximately 2.92 fold of the estimated maximal expected allele frequency for a pathogenic variant in RET causing Hirschsprung Disease phenotype (0.00025). c.539G>A has been reported in the literature in at least one individual affected with Hirschsprung Disease (Hofstra_2000). These report(s) do not provide unequivocal conclusions about association of the variant with Hirschsprung Disease. To our knowledge, no experimental evidence demonstrating an impact on protein function has been reported. The following publication have been ascertained in the context of this evaluation (PMID: 10790203). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 161360). Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as likely benign. -
Hereditary cancer-predisposing syndrome Benign:1
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 Benign:1
This variant is classified as likely benign based on ACMG/AMP sequence variant interpretation guidelines (Richards et al. 2015 PMID: 25741868, with internal and published modifications). -
