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]

Multiple endocrine neoplasia, type 2 Uncertain:1

Labcorp Genetics (formerly Invitae), Labcorp
Significance:Uncertain significance
Review Status:criteria provided, single submitter
Collection Method:clinical testing

This sequence change replaces arginine, which is basic and polar, with histidine, which is basic and polar, at codon 144 of the RET protein (p.Arg144His). This variant is present in population databases (rs551142665, gnomAD 0.02%). This missense change has been observed in individual(s) with Hirschsprung disease (PMID: 26395553). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 216729). 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 tolerated. 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. -

Identified in a patient with Hirschsprung disease (HSCR) and was inherited from a parent with unspecified clinical history and observed in a patient with Parkinson's disease (PMID: 20442138, 26395553); Published functional studies suggest that the p.(R144H) variant does not result in significant protein expression or protein interaction differences compared to wildtype (PMID: 26395553, 20442138); In silico analysis supports that this missense variant does not alter protein structure/function; This variant is associated with the following publications: (PMID: 20442138, 26395553, 23084198, 14633923) -

Hereditary cancer-predisposing syndrome Benign:1

Ambry Genetics
Significance:Benign
Review Status:criteria provided, single submitter
Collection Method:clinical testing

This alteration is classified as 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. -
