NM_002524.5:c.159G>A

Variant summary

Our verdict is Benign. The variant received -8 ACMG points: 0P and 8B. BA1

This summary comes from the ClinGen Evidence Repository: The NM_002524.5:c.159G>A variant is a synonymous (silent) variant (p.Leu53=) that is not predicted by SpliceAI to impact splicing, however, this nucleotide is highly conserved. The filtering allele frequency (the lower threshold of the 95% CI of 25/19928) of the c.159G>A variant in NRAS is 0.0009003 for East Asian chromosomes by gnomAD v2.1.1, which is higher than the ClinGen RASopathy VCEP threshold (≥0.0005) for BA1, and therefore meets this criterion (BA1). In summary, this variant meets the criteria to be classified as benign for autosomal dominant RASopathy based on the ACMG/AMP criteria applied, as specified by the ClinGen RASopathy VCEP: BA1.

Genes affected
NRAS (HGNC:7989): (NRAS proto-oncogene, GTPase) This is an N-ras oncogene encoding a membrane protein that shuttles between the Golgi apparatus and the plasma membrane. This shuttling is regulated through palmitoylation and depalmitoylation by the ZDHHC9-GOLGA7 complex. The encoded protein, which has intrinsic GTPase activity, is activated by a guanine nucleotide-exchange factor and inactivated by a GTPase activating protein. Mutations in this gene have been associated with somatic rectal cancer, follicular thyroid cancer, autoimmune lymphoproliferative syndrome, Noonan syndrome, and juvenile myelomonocytic leukemia.
