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 Benign:2
Benign, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingIllumina Laboratory Services, IlluminaJan 13, 2018This variant was observed in the ICSL laboratory as part of a predisposition screen in an ostensibly healthy population. It had not been previously curated by ICSL or reported in the Human Gene Mutation Database (HGMD: prior to June 1st, 2018), and was therefore a candidate for classification through an automated scoring system. Utilizing variant allele frequency, disease prevalence and penetrance estimates, and inheritance mode, an automated score was calculated to assess if this variant is too frequent to cause the disease. Based on the score and internal cut-off values, a variant classified as benign is not then subjected to further curation. The score for this variant resulted in a classification of benign for this disease. -

Benign, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingWomen's Health and Genetics/Laboratory Corporation of America, LabCorpJul 03, 2018Variant summary: ALK c.1111G>A (p.Ala371Thr) results in a non-conservative amino acid change located in the MAM domain of the encoded protein sequence. Three of five in-silico tools predict a benign effect of the variant on protein function. The observed variant frequency within East Asian control individuals in the gnomAD database is approximately 8640-folds higher than the estimated maximal expected allele frequency for a pathogenic variant in ALK causing Neuroblastoma, Susceptibility Type 3 phenotype (4.2e-07), strongly suggesting that the variant is a benign polymorphism found primarily in populations of East Asian origin. The variant, c.1111G>A, has been reported in the literature in an individual diagnosed with Ewing's sarcoma (Zhang_2015). Co-occurrences with other pathogenic variant(s) have been reported (NF2 c.586C>T, p.Arg196X). To our knowledge, no experimental evidence demonstrating an impact on protein function has been reported. Two ClinVar submissions from clinical diagnostic laboratories (evaluation after 2014) cite the variant as "likely benign." Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as benign. -
