Genes affected
ALK (HGNC:427): (ALK receptor tyrosine kinase) This gene encodes a receptor tyrosine kinase, which belongs to the insulin receptor superfamily. This protein comprises an extracellular domain, an hydrophobic stretch corresponding to a single pass transmembrane region, and an intracellular kinase domain. It plays an important role in the development of the brain and exerts its effects on specific neurons in the nervous system. This gene has been found to be rearranged, mutated, or amplified in a series of tumours including anaplastic large cell lymphomas, neuroblastoma, and non-small cell lung cancer. The chromosomal rearrangements are the most common genetic alterations in this gene, which result in creation of multiple fusion genes in tumourigenesis, including ALK (chromosome 2)/EML4 (chromosome 2), ALK/RANBP2 (chromosome 2), ALK/ATIC (chromosome 2), ALK/TFG (chromosome 3), ALK/NPM1 (chromosome 5), ALK/SQSTM1 (chromosome 5), ALK/KIF5B (chromosome 10), ALK/CLTC (chromosome 17), ALK/TPM4 (chromosome 19), and ALK/MSN (chromosome X).[provided by RefSeq, Jan 2011]

Neuroblastoma, susceptibility to, 3 Uncertain:2
Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingLabcorp Genetics (formerly Invitae), LabcorpJan 29, 2024This sequence change replaces aspartic acid, which is acidic and polar, with asparagine, which is neutral and polar, at codon 1141 of the ALK protein (p.Asp1141Asn). This variant is present in population databases (rs748493584, gnomAD 0.008%). This missense change has been observed in individual(s) with colorectal cancer (PMID: 28975465). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 470828). 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. -

Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingWomen's Health and Genetics/Laboratory Corporation of America, LabCorpJul 10, 2018Variant summary: ALK c.3421G>A (p.Asp1141Asn) results in a conservative amino acid change located in the Catalytic domain of the encoded protein sequence. Four of five in-silico tools predict a damaging effect of the variant on protein function. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 3.2e-05 in 277056 control chromosomes (gnomAD). The available data on variant occurrences in the general population are insufficient to allow any conclusion about variant significance. The variant, c.3421G>A has been reported in the literature in individuals with limited available information (Bavi_2013, Siraj_2017). At least one publication reports experimental evidence evaluating an impact on protein function. These results showed no damaging effect of this variant on doxorubicin-induced apoptosis. A ClinVar submission from a clinical diagnostic laboratory (evaluation after 2014) cites the variant as "uncertain significance." Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as uncertain significance. -
Hereditary cancer-predisposing syndrome Uncertain:1
Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingAmbry GeneticsJun 08, 2022The p.D1141N variant (also known as c.3421G>A), located in coding exon 21 of the ALK gene, results from a G to A substitution at nucleotide position 3421. The aspartic acid at codon 1141 is replaced by asparagine, an amino acid with highly similar properties. This alteration has been identified in patients with colorectal cancer (Siraj AK et al. Hum. Genet., 2017 11;136:1431-1444; Bavi P et al. Br. J. Cancer, 2013 Nov;109:2735-43). One study showed that this alteration performed similarly to the wild-type allele in terms of sensitivity to doxorubicin-induced apoptosis (Mourali J et al. Mol. Cell. Biol., 2006 Aug;26:6209-22). This amino acid position is not well conserved in available vertebrate species. In addition, this alteration is predicted to be tolerated by in silico analysis. Since supporting evidence is limited at this time, the clinical significance of this alteration remains unclear. -
