The variant received 12 classification points (ACMG Germline Pathogenicity v2019). PM1PM2PM5PP3_ModeratePP5_Strong

The NM_020975.6(RET):c.1858T>G (p.Cys620Gly) variant causes a missense change involving the alteration of a non-conserved nucleotide. The variant is absent from the gnomAD population database at sites with sufficient sequencing coverage. In-silico predictor (REVEL) classifies this variant as likely damaging/oncogenic. Splicing prediction tools (SpliceAI) predict no significant impact on normal splicing. Variant has been reported in ClinVar as Pathogenic/Likely Pathogenic (★★). A different missense at the same amino acid position has been reported as Pathogenic/Likely Pathogenic in ClinVar: p.C620R: Pathogenic (ClinVar VariationId 13915, 2 stars) Other variants at the same amino acid position have been reported in ClinVar (not pathogenic): p.C620= (synonymous): Conflicting_classifications_of_pathogenicity (ClinVar VariationId 549782) This exact variant is curated in the UniProt human variants database as Uncertain Significance; it is also listed as a COSMIC curated somatic variant.

Genes affected

RET (HGNC:9967): (ret proto-oncogene) This gene encodes a transmembrane receptor and member of the tyrosine protein kinase family of proteins. Binding of ligands such as GDNF (glial cell-line derived neurotrophic factor) and other related proteins to the encoded receptor stimulates receptor dimerization and activation of downstream signaling pathways that play a role in cell differentiation, growth, migration and survival. The encoded receptor is important in development of the nervous system, and the development of organs and tissues derived from the neural crest. This proto-oncogene can undergo oncogenic activation through both cytogenetic rearrangement and activating point mutations. Mutations in this gene are associated with Hirschsprung disease and central hypoventilation syndrome and have been identified in patients with renal agenesis. [provided by RefSeq, Sep 2017]

Classification according to ACMG Germline Pathogenicity v2019

Classification was made for transcript:

Our verdict: Pathogenic. The variant received 12 points.

Apply	Criterion Code & Title / Strength	Strength	Rationale / Clinical Context
	PM1Mutational hot spot or critical domain		Missense neighbourhood hotspot (≥2 P/LP within ±8 AA, OR ≥ 5 vs. background) — PM1; In-domain: 0 pathogenic, 0 benign rare missense variants.; ±8 AA neighbourhood: 6 pathogenic, 2 benign (OR vs. background: 13.0).
	PM2Absent/extremely low in population databases		Absent from gnomAD (AD/XL gene) — PM2; Absent from gnomAD at well-covered site (MOI: AD+AR) (base 0.0001, raised to 0.000122 by highest known P/LP ClinVar AF 0.000122) — PM2 moderate.
	PM5Novel missense at known pathogenic residue		Different pathogenic missense at same AA residue in ClinVar (PM5); ClinVar contains a germline Pathogenic/Likely Pathogenic entry at the same amino acid position with a different amino acid change: p.C620R: Pathogenic (ClinVar VariationId 13915, 2 stars); Other variants at the same amino acid residue (not pathogenic): p.C620= (synonymous): Conflicting_classifications_of_pathogenicity (ClinVar VariationId 549782)
	PP3Computational evidence supports damaging effect		Germline meta computational scorer (REVEL/MetaRNN/BayesDel) predicts damaging effect — moderate evidence (PP3); Splicing verdict: not pathogenic.; Germline computational verdict: pathogenic (Moderate).
	PP5Reputable source reports pathogenic		ClinVar 2-star pathogenic — strong (PP5); ClinVar germline classification: Pathogenic/Likely Pathogenic, 2 star(s).
