Variant summary
Our verdict is Pathogenic. Variant got 18 ACMG points: 18P and 0B. PM1PM2PM5PP3_StrongPP5_Very_Strong
The NM_004985.5(KRAS):c.101C>G(p.Pro34Arg) variant causes a missense change involving the alteration of a conserved nucleotide. The variant was absent in control chromosomes in GnomAD project. In-silico tool predicts a pathogenic outcome for this variant. 12/21 in silico tools predict a damaging outcome for this variant. Variant has been reported in ClinVar as Likely pathogenic (★★). Another variant affecting the same amino acid position, but resulting in a different missense (i.e. P34Q) has been classified as Likely pathogenic.

Published functional studies demonstrate a damaging effect through constitutive phosphorylation of MEK, ERK, AKT and S6; supporting a gain of function mechanism (Gremer et al., 2011; Schubbert et al., 2007); Not observed at significant frequency in large population cohorts (gnomAD); Missense variants in this gene are often considered pathogenic (HGMD); In silico analysis supports that this missense variant has a deleterious effect on protein structure/function; Truncating variants in this gene are considered pathogenic by a well-established clinical consortium and/or database; This variant is associated with the following publications: (PMID: 28958387, 20949621, 24803665, 31216405, 17875937, 16474405) -
Noonan syndrome;C1275081:Cardio-facio-cutaneous syndrome Pathogenic:1
The p.Pro34Arg in KRAS variant has been reported 1 adolescent with clinical feat ures of Cardio-facio-cutaneous syndrome as a de novo occurrence (Schubbert 2006) and by our laboratory in 1 child with clinical features of Noonan syndrome (LMM unpublished data). It was absent from large population studies. In vitro functi onal studies provide evidence that the p.Pro34Arg may impact protein function (S tone 1993, Schubbert 2007, Gremer 2010). However, these types of assays may not accurately represent biological function. In summary, although additional studie s are required to fully establish its clinical significance, the p.Pro34Arg vari ant is likely pathogenic. -

Noonan syndrome 3 Pathogenic:1
The variant is not observed in the gnomAD v2.1.1 dataset. Predicted Consequence/Location: Missense changes are a common disease-causing mechanism. In silico tool predictions suggest damaging effect of the variant on gene or gene product [REVEL: 0.91 (>=0.6, sensitivity 0.68 and specificity 0.92); 3Cnet: 0.97 (>=0.6, sensitivity 0.72 and precision 0.9)]. Same nucleotide change resulting in same amino acid change (ClinVar ID: VCV000012590 /PMID: 16474405) and different missense changes at the same codon (p.Pro34Gln, p.Pro34Leu / ClinVar ID: VCV000040454 / PMID: 17056636) have been previously reported as pathogenic/likely pathogenic with strong evidence. Therefore, this variant is classified as Pathogenic according to the recommendation of ACMG/AMP guideline. -
RASopathy Pathogenic:1
This variant is not present in population databases (gnomAD no frequency). For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. This variant disrupts the p.Pro34 amino acid residue in KRAS. Other variant(s) that disrupt this residue have been determined to be pathogenic (PMID: 17056636). This suggests that this residue is clinically significant, and that variants that disrupt this residue are likely to be disease-causing. Experimental studies have shown that this missense change affects KRAS function (PMID: 20949621). Advanced modeling of protein sequence and biophysical properties (such as structural, functional, and spatial information, amino acid conservation, physicochemical variation, residue mobility, and thermodynamic stability) performed at Invitae indicates that this missense variant is expected to disrupt KRAS protein function. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 12590). This missense change has been observed in individual(s) with cardio-facio-cutaneous syndrome (PMID: 16474405). In at least one individual the variant was observed to be de novo. This sequence change replaces proline, which is neutral and non-polar, with arginine, which is basic and polar, at codon 34 of the KRAS protein (p.Pro34Arg). -
