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]

This sequence change replaces leucine, which is neutral and non-polar, with phenylalanine, which is neutral and non-polar, at codon 586 of the RET protein (p.Leu586Phe). This variant is present in population databases (rs777604634, gnomAD 0.002%). This missense change has been observed in individual(s) with breast cancer (PMID: 34646395). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 477325). 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. 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. -

Significance:Uncertain significance

Review Status:criteria provided, single submitter

Collection Method:clinical testing

The p.L586F variant (also known as c.1756C>T), located in coding exon 9 of the RET gene, results from a C to T substitution at nucleotide position 1756. The leucine at codon 586 is replaced by phenylalanine, an amino acid with highly similar properties. This alteration was identified in a cohort of 30 Moroccan women with early onset triple negative breast cancer who underwent multi-gene panel testing (Laraqui A et al. J Genomics, 2021 Sep;9:43-54). This amino acid position is not well conserved in available vertebrate species. In addition, the in silico prediction for this alteration is inconclusive. Since supporting evidence is limited at this time, the clinical significance of this alteration remains unclear. -
