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]

Variant summary: RET c.3116C>T (p.Pro1039Leu) results in a non-conservative amino acid change in the encoded protein sequence. Five of five in-silico tools predict a damaging effect of the variant on protein function. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 3.6e-05 in 251464 control chromosomes. The available data on variant occurrences in the general population are insufficient to allow any conclusion about variant significance. c.3116C>T has been reported in the literature in an individual affected with total colonic aganglionosis (Amiel_1998) . This report does not provide unequivocal conclusions about association of the variant with Multiple Endocrine Neoplasia Type 2. At least one publication reports experimental evidence evaluating an impact on protein function (Pelet_1998). These results showed no damaging effect of this variant. The following publications have been ascertained in the context of this evaluation (PMID: 25637381, 9497256, 9502784). Four submitters have cited clinical-significance assessments for this variant to ClinVar after 2014 and classified as likely benign (n=1) and VUS (n=3). Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as uncertain significance. -

Collection Method:clinical testing

This sequence change replaces proline, which is neutral and non-polar, with leucine, which is neutral and non-polar, at codon 1039 of the RET protein (p.Pro1039Leu). This variant is present in population databases (rs79853121, gnomAD 0.01%). This missense change has been observed in individual(s) with congenital central hypoventilation syndrome and total colonic aganglionosis (PMID: 9497256). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 13948). An algorithm developed to predict the effect of missense changes on protein structure and function (PolyPhen-2) suggests that this variant is likely to be disruptive. Experimental studies are conflicting or provide insufficient evidence to determine the effect of this variant on RET function (PMID: 9502784, 10921886). 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. -

Ambry Genetics

Significance:Likely benign

Review Status:criteria provided, single submitter

Collection Method:clinical testing

This alteration is classified as likely 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. -
