Genes affected
BRAF (HGNC:1097): (B-Raf proto-oncogene, serine/threonine kinase) This gene encodes a protein belonging to the RAF family of serine/threonine protein kinases. This protein plays a role in regulating the MAP kinase/ERK signaling pathway, which affects cell division, differentiation, and secretion. Mutations in this gene, most commonly the V600E mutation, are the most frequently identified cancer-causing mutations in melanoma, and have been identified in various other cancers as well, including non-Hodgkin lymphoma, colorectal cancer, thyroid carcinoma, non-small cell lung carcinoma, hairy cell leukemia and adenocarcinoma of lung. Mutations in this gene are also associated with cardiofaciocutaneous, Noonan, and Costello syndromes, which exhibit overlapping phenotypes. A pseudogene of this gene has been identified on the X chromosome. [provided by RefSeq, Aug 2017]

Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingLaboratory for Molecular Medicine, Mass General Brigham Personalized MedicineFeb 25, 2020The p.Arg146Gln variant in BRAF has been reported in at least one individual with Noonan syndrome and related conditions (Leach 2018), but has also been identified in 0.02% (7/34592) of Latino chromosomes by gnomAD (http://gnomad.broadinstitute.org). This variant has been reported as a variant of uncertain significance in ClinVar (Variation ID 372564). Computational prediction tools and conservation analyses do not provide strong support for or against an impact to the protein. In summary, the clinical significance of this variant is uncertain.

RASopathy Uncertain:1
Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingLabcorp Genetics (formerly Invitae), LabcorpDec 06, 2023This sequence change replaces arginine, which is basic and polar, with glutamine, which is neutral and polar, at codon 146 of the BRAF protein (p.Arg146Gln). This variant is present in population databases (rs557241012, gnomAD 0.02%). This missense change has been observed in individual(s) with clinical features of Noonan syndrome and/or related conditions (PMID: 29907801). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 372564). Advanced modeling performed at Invitae incorporating data from internal and/or published experimental studies (Invitae) indicates that this missense variant is not expected to disrupt BRAF function with a negative predictive value of 95%. 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. -
not provided Benign:1
Likely benign, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingGeneDxApr 26, 2021Missense variants in this gene are often considered pathogenic (Stenson et al., 2014); In silico analysis supports that this missense variant does not alter protein structure/function; This variant is associated with the following publications: (PMID: 29907801, 30050098) -
