Our verdict is Pathogenic. Variant got 20 ACMG points: 20P and 0B. PS2PM2PP3PP2PS3PS4PM1_Strong

This summary comes from the ClinGen Evidence Repository: The c.1655G>A (p.Arg552Lys) variant in SOS1 has been reported as a confirmed de novo occurrence in at least 2 patients with clinical features of a RASopathy (PS2_VeryStrong; PMID 17586837, 17143282, 30266093, 26686981). This variant has been detected in at least 7 independent occurrences with clinical features of a RASopathy (PS4; PMIDs: 17586837, 22420426, 28378436, 29037749, 25337068, 21387466, 21784453, 26918529, 21274610). In vitro functional studies provide some evidence that the p.Arg552Lys variant may impact protein function (PS3; PMID:21784453). This residue has been defined as a PM1 hotspot by the RAS VCEP. These variants would have received PM5_Strong but the RAS EP decided that PM1 and PM5 cannot be used simultaneously and therefore this rule has been upgraded with expert judgement (PM1_Strong). This variant was absent from large population studies (PM2; gnomAD, http://gnomad.broadinstitute.org). Computational prediction tools and conservation analysis suggest that the p.Arg552Lys variant may impact the protein (PP3). The variant is located in the SOS1 gene, which has been defined by the ClinGen RASopathy Expert Panel as a gene with a low rate of benign missense variants and pathogenic missense variants are common (PP2; PMID:29493581). In summary, this variant meets criteria to be classified as pathogenic for RASopathies in an autosomal dominant manner. Rasopathy-specific ACMG/AMP criteria applied (PMID:29493581): PS2_VeryStrong, PS4, PS3, PM1_Strong, PM2, PP2, PP3.

Genes affected
SOS1 (HGNC:11187): (SOS Ras/Rac guanine nucleotide exchange factor 1) This gene encodes a protein that is a guanine nucleotide exchange factor for RAS proteins, membrane proteins that bind guanine nucleotides and participate in signal transduction pathways. GTP binding activates and GTP hydrolysis inactivates RAS proteins. The product of this gene may regulate RAS proteins by facilitating the exchange of GTP for GDP. Mutations in this gene are associated with gingival fibromatosis 1 and Noonan syndrome type 4. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]

This sequence variant is a single nucleotide substitution (G>A) at position 1655 of the coding sequence of the SOS1 gene that results in an arginine to lysine amino acid change at residue 552 of the SOS Ras/Rac guanine nucleotide exchange factor 1 protein. The 552 residue falls in the PH-Rem linker domain (PMID: 17143282) which plays a critical role in SOS Ras/Rac guanine nucleotide exchange factor 1's function. This is a previously reported variant (ClinVar 40683) that has been determined to be pathogenic by an expert panel (ClinGen RASopathy Variant Curation Expert Panel SCV000927028.1) and has been observed in individuals affected by RASopathy syndrome, Noonan syndrome, or intellectual disability (PMID: 38572385, 35390071, 33128510, 31573083, 17586837, 17143282, 30266093, 26686981, 22420426, 28378436, 29037749, 25337068, 21387466). This variant is present in 1 of 1613738 alleles (0.00006%) in the gnomAD v4.1.0 population dataset. Multiple bioinformatic tools predict that this arginine to lysine amino acid change would be damaging, and the Arg552 residue at this position is highly conserved across the vertebrate species examined. Studies examining the functional consequence of this variant show this variant may impact the protein function (PMID: 21784453). Based upon the evidence, we consider this variant to be pathogenic.

Based on the classification scheme VCGS_Germline_v1.3.4, this variant is classified as Pathogenic. Following criteria are met: 0101 - Gain of function is a known mechanism of disease in this gene and is associated with Noonan syndrome 4 (MIM#610733). (I) 0107 - This gene is associated with autosomal dominant disease. (I) 0115 - Variants in this gene are known to have variable expressivity. Due to ascertainment bias and variable expressivity with frequent subtlety of features, the penetrance of Noonan syndrome is difficult to determine; affected adults are often diagnosed only after the diagnosis of a more severely affected child (GeneReviews). (I) 0200 - Variant is predicted to result in a missense amino acid change from arginine to lysine. (I) 0251 - This variant is heterozygous. (I) 0301 - Variant is absent from gnomAD (both v2 and v3). (SP) 0309 - Three alternative amino acid changes at the same position have been observed in gnomAD (v2 and v3) (same allele frequency in all: 1 heterozygote, 0 homozygote). (I) 0501 - Missense variant consistently predicted to be damaging by multiple in silico tools and very highly conserved with a minor amino acid change. (SP) 0604 - Variant is not located in an established domain, motif, hotspot or informative constraint region. (I) 0701 - Multiple missense variants comparable to the one identified in this case have very strong previous evidence for pathogenicity. Multiple missense changes at this amino acid have been reported in ClinVar as pathogenic. (SP) 0801 - This variant has strong previous evidence of pathogenicity in unrelated individuals. This variant has been reported multiple times as pathogenic in individuals with Noonan syndrome (ClinVar, DECIPHER, PMID: 31292302). (SP) 1203 - This variant has been shown to be de novo in the proband (parental status confirmed) (by trio analysis).

The c.1655G>A (p.Arg552Lys) variant in SOS1 has been reported as a confirmed de novo occurrence in at least 2 patients with clinical features of a RASopathy (PS2_VeryStrong; PMID 17586837, 17143282, 30266093, 26686981). This variant has been detected in at least 7 independent occurrences with clinical features of a RASopathy (PS4; PMIDs: 17586837, 22420426, 28378436, 29037749, 25337068, 21387466, 21784453, 26918529, 21274610). In vitro functional studies provide some evidence that the p.Arg552Lys variant may impact protein function (PS3; PMID: 21784453). This residue has been defined as a PM1 hotspot by the RAS VCEP. These variants would have received PM5_Strong but the RAS EP decided that PM1 and PM5 cannot be used simultaneously and therefore this rule has been upgraded with expert judgement (PM1_Strong). This variant was absent from large population studies (PM2; gnomAD, http://gnomad.broadinstitute.org). Computational prediction tools and conservation analysis suggest that the p.Arg552Lys variant may impact the protein (PP3). The variant is located in the SOS1 gene, which has been defined by the ClinGen RASopathy Expert Panel as a gene with a low rate of benign missense variants and pathogenic missense variants are common (PP2; PMID: 29493581). In summary, this variant meets criteria to be classified as pathogenic for RASopathies in an autosomal dominant manner.

The Arg552Lys variant in SOS1 has been reported in at least six individuals with clinical features of Noonan syndrome, four of whom were reported to have occurr ed de novo (Tartaglia 2007, Zenker 2007, Lepri 2011). In addition this variant was absent from 600 control chromosomes (Lepri 2011). Furthermore, different ami no acid changes at this location (Arg552Gly, Arg552Thr and Arg552Ser) have also been associated with clinical features of Noonan syndrome (Roberts 2007, Zenker 2007, Tartaglia 2007, Beneteau 2009, Lepri 2011). Protein modeling suggests that amino acid residue 552 plays an important role in structural formation of the p rotein (Lepri 2011). Therefore, it is highly likely that this variant is pathog enic. The presence of a heterozygous pathogenic variant in SOS1 is consistent wi th a diagnosis of Noonan syndrome, but this information should be reconciled wit h the complete clinical history of this individual. -

Variant summary: The SOS1 c.1655G>A (p.Arg552Lys) variant lies in the helical linker between the PH and Rem domains and is predicted to interact directly with the side chains of Asp140 and Asp169 in the histone domain of SOS1 (ref. 16). Disruption of this interaction could affect the relative orientation of the DH-PH unit and the Rem domain (Tartaglia_207). This change involves the alteration of a conserved nucleotide with 2/4 in silico tools (SNPs&GO not captured due to low reliability index) predicting a deleterious outcome, although these predictions have yet to be functionally assessed. The variant of interest was not observed in controls (ExAC, 1000 Gs, or ESP), but multiple publications cite the variant as causative in affected individuals including at least one de novo event and a mother-child affected duo. In addition, Arg552 appears to be a mutational hot-spot as other alterations of the same codon, such as p.Arg552Gly and p.Arg552Ser were identified as causative in multiple NS pts and were shown to increase in the basal level of active RAS and prolonged RAS activation after EGF stimulation in functional studies (Tartaglia_ 2007). Lastly, multiple clinical diagnostic laboratories classified this variant as pathogenic. Taken together, this variant is classified as pathogenic. -

This sequence change replaces arginine, which is basic and polar, with lysine, which is basic and polar, at codon 552 of the SOS1 protein (p.Arg552Lys). This variant is not present in population databases (gnomAD no frequency). This missense change has been observed in individual(s) with Noonan syndrome (PMID: 26686981, 30266093). In at least one individual the variant was observed to be de novo. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 40683). Invitae Evidence Modeling of protein sequence and biophysical properties (such as structural, functional, and spatial information, amino acid conservation, physicochemical variation, residue mobility, and thermodynamic stability) has been performed for this missense variant. However, the output from this modeling did not meet the statistical confidence thresholds required to predict the impact of this variant on SOS1 protein function. This variant disrupts the p.Arg552 amino acid residue in SOS1. Other variant(s) that disrupt this residue have been determined to be pathogenic (PMID: 19020799, 21387466, 22190897, 24037001). This suggests that this residue is clinically significant, and that variants that disrupt this residue are likely to be disease-causing. For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. -
