Variant summary
Our verdict is Uncertain significance. Variant got 0 ACMG points: 2P and 2B. PM5BP4_Moderate
The NM_020975.6(RET):c.832A>G(p.Thr278Ala) variant causes a missense change. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 0.00000806 in 1,612,722 control chromosomes in the GnomAD database, with no homozygous occurrence. In-silico tool predicts a benign outcome for this variant. Variant has been reported in ClinVar as Uncertain significance (★★). Another variant affecting the same amino acid position, but resulting in a different missense (i.e. T278P) has been classified as Likely pathogenic.

Multiple endocrine neoplasia, type 2 Uncertain:2
Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitter | clinical testing | All of Us Research Program, National Institutes of Health | Aug 06, 2024 | This missense variant replaces threonine with alanine at codon 278 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 been reported in an individual affected with paraganglioma (PMID: 34750850). This variant has been identified in 7/245974 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. - |
Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitter | clinical testing | Labcorp Genetics (formerly Invitae), Labcorp | Jan 25, 2024 | This sequence change replaces threonine, which is neutral and polar, with alanine, which is neutral and non-polar, at codon 278 of the RET protein (p.Thr278Ala). This variant is present in population databases (rs541929171, gnomAD 0.03%). This missense change has been observed in individual(s) with Hirschsprung disease (PMID: 22174939). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 220205). 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 tolerated. 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. - |

Hereditary cancer-predisposing syndrome Uncertain:1
Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitter | clinical testing | Ambry Genetics | Feb 01, 2024 | The p.T278A variant (also known as c.832A>G), located in coding exon 4 of the RET gene, results from an A to G substitution at nucleotide position 832. The threonine at codon 278 is replaced by alanine, an amino acid with similar properties. This alteration was reported in several Chinese or Vietnamese probands with Hirschsprung disease (So MT et al. PLoS ONE 2011 Dec;6(12):e28986; Tang CS et al. Gastroenterology. 2018 12;155:1908-1922.e5). This alteration was identified in 0/245 Chinese patients with MEN2, medullary thyroid carcinoma, and/ or pheochromocytoma and 1/493 of their unaffected relatives (Qi XP et al. BMC Cancer. 2021 Apr;21:369). This variant has been detected in multiple individuals with no reported features of Multiple endocrine neoplasia type 2 (Ambry internal data). Based on data from gnomAD, the frequency for this variant is above the maximum credible frequency for a MEN2-causing variant in this gene based on internally established thresholds (Karczewski et al. Nature. 2020 May;581(7809):434-443; Whiffin et al. Genet Med. 2017 10;19:1151-1158). This amino acid position is well conserved in available vertebrate species. In addition, the in silico prediction for this alteration is inconclusive. Based on the supporting evidence, the association of this alteration with MEN2 is unlikely; however, the association of this alteration with Hirschsprung disease is unknown. - |
