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]

This sequence change replaces glutamine, which is neutral and polar, with arginine, which is basic and polar, at codon 781 of the RET protein (p.Gln781Arg). This variant is not present in population databases (gnomAD no frequency). This missense change has been observed in individual(s) with clinical features of RET-related conditions (PMID: 12072055, 23468374). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 24938). 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. -

The p.Q781R variant (also known as c.2342A>G), located in coding exon 13 of the RET gene, results from an A to G substitution at nucleotide position 2342. The glutamine at codon 781 is replaced by arginine, an amino acid with highly similar properties. This alteration was identified in a woman diagnosed with medullary thyroid cancer at age 71, as well as in her son, who was also diagnosed with medullary thyroid cancer (Maschek W et al. Clin Endocrinol (Oxf). 2002 Jun;56:823). This alteration was also identified in a patient diagnosed with medullary thyroid cancer at age 73 (Lebeault M et al. Thyroid. 2017 12;27:1511-1522). This alteration was detected in conjunction with another RET alteration, V804M, in a 32-year-old female diagnosed with MEN2B based on her history of mucosal neuromas and medullary thyroid cancer; familial testing confirmed the Q781R alteration in her unaffected father and brother (Nakao KT et al. Head Neck. 2013 Dec;35:E363-8). This alteration was further detected in conjunction with another RET alteration, S904C, in 3/3 individuals diagnosed with medullary thyroid cancer from one family (Opsahl EM et al. Thyroid. 2016 09;26:1225-38). This amino acid position is highly conserved in available vertebrate species. In addition, this alteration is predicted to be deleterious by in silico analysis. Since supporting evidence is limited at this time, the clinical significance of this alteration remains unclear. -
