Our verdict is Pathogenic. Variant got 16 ACMG points: 16P and 0B. PS1PP3_StrongPP5_Very_Strong
The NM_020975.6(RET):c.2370G>C(p.Leu790Phe) variant causes a missense change involving the alteration of a non-conserved nucleotide. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 0.00000547 in 1,461,602 control chromosomes in the GnomAD database, with no homozygous occurrence. In-silico tool predicts a pathogenic outcome for this variant. Variant has been reported in ClinVar as Likely pathogenic (★★). Another nucleotide change resulting in the same amino acid substitution has been previously reported as Pathogenic in Lovd.

Multiple endocrine neoplasia type 2A Pathogenic:3
- -
- -
This variant is considered pathogenic. This variant has been reported in multiple individuals with clinical features of gene-specific disease [PMID: 28946813, 33827484, 33167350, 12490841, 12409662, 9506724, 25810047]. -

Multiple endocrine neoplasia, type 2 Pathogenic:1
This sequence change replaces leucine, which is neutral and non-polar, with phenylalanine, which is neutral and non-polar, at codon 790 of the RET protein (p.Leu790Phe). This variant is present in population databases (rs75030001, gnomAD 0.0009%). This missense change has been observed in individual(s) with medullary thyroid carcinoma (PMID: 9506724, 12409662, 12490841, 14561794, 16868135, 18062802, 20516206, 20833330, 21688339, 22965292, 23756355, 25767701). It has also been observed to segregate with disease in related individuals. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 13935). 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: 21810974). For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. -
not provided Pathogenic:1
Not observed at significant frequency in large population cohorts (gnomAD); In silico analysis supports that this missense variant has a deleterious effect on protein structure/function; Published functional studies demonstrate transforming activity similar to wildtype (PMID: 21810974); This variant is associated with the following publications: (PMID: 23756355, 21810974, 19469690, 22403753, 9167962, 14633923, 33167350, 20516206, 16314641, 28125078, 30355600, 9506724, 33827484, 17895320, 21054478, 29656518, 29590403, 28946813, 30624503, 12490841, 11238493, 25810047) -
Hereditary cancer-predisposing syndrome Pathogenic:1
The p.L790F pathogenic mutation (also known as c.2370G>C), located in coding exon 13 of the RET gene, results from a G to C substitution at nucleotide position 2370. The leucine at codon 790 is replaced by phenylalanine, an amino acid with highly similar properties. This mutation has been identified in three brothers diagnosed with medullary thyroid cancer (MTC); three unaffected family members tested negative for this alteration and did not display any clinical or biochemical features of Multiple Endocrine Neoplasia type 2A (MEN2A) (Berndt I et al. J Clin Endocrinol Metab, 1998 Mar;83:770-4). This variant has also been identified in multiple unrelated individuals with a personal history of MTC (Machens A et al. Hum Mutat, 2018 06;39:860-869). Another variant at this position resulting in the same amino acid change (c.2370G>T) has been identified in individuals and families with MTC and/or pheochromocytoma (PCC) and is classified as a moderate risk mutation (Berndt I et al. J. Clin. Endocrinol. Metab. 1998 Mar;83:770-4; Min JW et al. J Korean Surg Soc. 2012 Mar;82:185-9; Bihan H et al. Head Neck. 2012 Apr;34:493-8; Qi XP et al. Thyroid. 2012 Dec;22:1257-65). In addition to the clinical data presented in the literature, this allele was reported in one heterozygous individual in population-based cohorts in the Genome Aggregation Database (gnomAD). This alteration is predicted to be deleterious by in silico analysis. The American Thyroid Association has designated alterations at this codon occurring without additional RET mutations as moderate risk mutations (Wells SA et al. Thyroid. 2015 Jun;25:567-610). Based on the supporting evidence, this variant is expected to be a pathogenic mutation with moderate risk of MEN2; however, its clinical significance for Hirschsprung disease is unclear. -
