Genes affected
MET (HGNC:7029): (MET proto-oncogene, receptor tyrosine kinase) This gene encodes a member of the receptor tyrosine kinase family of proteins and the product of the proto-oncogene MET. The encoded preproprotein is proteolytically processed to generate alpha and beta subunits that are linked via disulfide bonds to form the mature receptor. Further processing of the beta subunit results in the formation of the M10 peptide, which has been shown to reduce lung fibrosis. Binding of its ligand, hepatocyte growth factor, induces dimerization and activation of the receptor, which plays a role in cellular survival, embryogenesis, and cellular migration and invasion. Mutations in this gene are associated with papillary renal cell carcinoma, hepatocellular carcinoma, and various head and neck cancers. Amplification and overexpression of this gene are also associated with multiple human cancers. [provided by RefSeq, May 2016]

Variant summary: The c.3029C>T (p.Thr1010Ile) in MET gene is a missense change that involves a conserved nucleotide and 3/4 in silico tools predict deleterious outcome. The variant falls into c-MET JM domain that regulates cytoskeletal functions: adhesion, motility, and migration and Mutation in this domain were shown to enhance lung cancer tumorigenicity in vitro. The variant is present in the control population dataset of ExAC and published general population data at an overall frequency 0.008 (962/1217700 chrs tested) including 6 homozygotes. It has particularly higher frequency in African subpopulation with an allele frequency of 2% (134/6576 chromosomes). These frequencies exceed the estimated maximum allele frequency for a pathogenic allele in this gene (0.0000015). The variant has been reported in healthy individuals and metastatic breast cancer, lung cancer and colorectal cancer patients (Liu_2015, Agrawal_2015). However, it has not been associated with increased risk for developing breast cancer in large genome wide association studies and previous laboratory studies have reported conflicting functional effects for the T1010I variant in NIH3T3 fibroblast and murine myeloid BA/F3 cell line models as discussed by Liu et al (Agrawal_2015). The variant is reported as Benign/VUS/Functional Polymorphism by a multiple reputable databases/clinical laboratories and published reports. Taken together, the variant was classified as Benign. -

This variant is considered likely benign or benign based on one or more of the following criteria: it is a conservative change, it occurs at a poorly conserved position in the protein, it is predicted to be benign by multiple in silico algorithms, and/or has population frequency not consistent with disease. -

Papillary renal cell carcinoma type 1 Benign:4

St. Jude Molecular Pathology, St. Jude Children's Research Hospital
Significance: Benign
Review Status: criteria provided, single submitter
Collection Method: clinical testing

The MET c.3029C>T (p.Thr1010Ile) missense change is present at a maximum non-founder subpopulation frequency of 1.2% in gnomAD v2.1.1 (https://gnomad.broadinstitute.org/variant/7-116411990-C-T?dataset=gnomad_r2_1). This population frequency is higher than expected for a pathogenic variant in MET causing predisposition to hereditary papillary renal cell carcinoma (BS1). This variant has also been reported as homozygous 13 times in the gnomAD v2.1.1 database which suggests that this is a benign polymorphism (BS2). In silico tools are not in agreement about the effect on the gene or protein function, and functional studies have reported conflicting effects in cell line models (PMIDs: 14559814, 25605252). This variant has been identified in individuals with colorectal cancer (PMID: 21970370), metastatic breast cancer (PMID: 25605252), and those without a personal or family history of hereditary papillary renal cell carcinoma (internal data). In summary, this variant meets criteria to be classified as benign based on the ACMG/AMP criteria: BS1, BS2. -

Illumina Laboratory Services, Illumina
Significance: Benign
Review Status: criteria provided, single submitter
Collection Method: clinical testing

This 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. -

This alteration is classified as benign based on a combination of the following: seen in unaffected individuals, population frequency, intact protein function, lack of segregation with disease, co-occurrence, RNA analysis, in silico models, amino acid conservation, lack of disease association in case-control studies, and/or the mechanism of disease or impacted region is inconsistent with a known cause of pathogenicity. -
