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]

Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingAmbry GeneticsApr 25, 2024The c.1934_1936delCCT variant (also known as p.S645del) is located in coding exon 11 of the RET gene. This variant results from an in-frame CCT deletion at nucleotide positions 1934 to 1936. This results in the in-frame deletion of a serine at codon 645. Based on data from gnomAD, the frequency for this variant is above the maximum credible frequency for a multiple endocrine neoplasia type 2 (MEN2) disease-causing variant in this gene based on internally established thresholds (Karczewski et al. Nature. 2020 May;581(7809):434-443; Whiffin et al. Genet Med. 2017 10;19:1151-1158). This amino acid position is highly conserved in available vertebrate species. In addition, the in silico prediction for this alteration is inconclusive (Choi Y et al. PLoS ONE. 2012; 7(10):e46688). Based on the supporting evidence, the association of this alteration with Hirschprung disease is unknown; however, the association of this alteration with MEN2 is unlikely. -

Multiple endocrine neoplasia, type 2 Uncertain:1
Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingInvitaeDec 29, 2023This variant, c.1934_1936del, results in the deletion of 1 amino acid(s) of the RET protein (p.Ser645del), but otherwise preserves the integrity of the reading frame. This variant is present in population databases (no rsID available, gnomAD 0.006%). This variant has not been reported in the literature in individuals affected with RET-related conditions. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 543756). Experimental studies and prediction algorithms are not available or were not evaluated, and the functional significance of this variant is currently unknown. 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. -
Congenital anomaly of kidney and urinary tract Uncertain:1
Uncertain significance, no assertion criteria providedclinical testingSydney Genome Diagnostics, Children's Hospital WestmeadMay 31, 2018This patient is heterozygous for a variant, c.1934_1936del (p.Ser645del), in the RET gene. This 3 base deletion removes a highly conserved (up to 11 species) serine residue at position 645. To our knowledge, c.1934_1936del (p.Ser645del) has not been previously reported in the literature to be associated with disease and it has not been reported in any allele frequency databases. This variant is considered to be a variant of uncertain significance (VOUS) according to the ACMG guidelines. -
