Variant summary

Our verdict is Pathogenic. Variant got 13 ACMG points: 13P and 0B. PS1 PM1 PM2 PM5 PP2 PP3_Moderate

The NM_000222.3(KIT):​c.1671G>T​(p.Trp557Cys) variant causes a missense change involving the alteration of a conserved nucleotide. The variant was absent in control chromosomes in GnomAD project. In-silico tool predicts a pathogenic outcome for this variant. 12/21 in silico tools predict a damaging outcome for this variant. No clinical diagnostic laboratories have submitted clinical-significance assessments for this variant to ClinVar. Another nucleotide change resulting in same amino acid change has been previously reported as Likely pathogenicin ClinVar. Another variant affecting the same amino acid position, but resulting in a different missense (i.e. W557F) has been classified as Likely pathogenic.

Genes affected

KIT (HGNC:6342): (KIT proto-oncogene, receptor tyrosine kinase) This gene encodes a receptor tyrosine kinase. This gene was initially identified as a homolog of the feline sarcoma viral oncogene v-kit and is often referred to as proto-oncogene c-Kit. The canonical form of this glycosylated transmembrane protein has an N-terminal extracellular region with five immunoglobulin-like domains, a transmembrane region, and an intracellular tyrosine kinase domain at the C-terminus. Upon activation by its cytokine ligand, stem cell factor (SCF), this protein phosphorylates multiple intracellular proteins that play a role in in the proliferation, differentiation, migration and apoptosis of many cell types and thereby plays an important role in hematopoiesis, stem cell maintenance, gametogenesis, melanogenesis, and in mast cell development, migration and function. This protein can be a membrane-bound or soluble protein. Mutations in this gene are associated with gastrointestinal stromal tumors, mast cell disease, acute myelogenous leukemia, and piebaldism. Multiple transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been found for this gene. [provided by RefSeq, May 2020]

ACMG classification

Verdict is Pathogenic. Variant got 13 ACMG points.

• PS1: Transcript NM_000222.3 (KIT) is affected with MISSENSE_VARIANT having same AA change as one Pathogenic present in ClinVar as 376734
• PM1: In a hotspot region, there are 6 aminoacids with missense pathogenic changes in the window of +-8 aminoacids around while only 1 benign, 14 uncertain in NM_000222.3
• PM2: Very rare variant in population databases, with high coverage
• PM5: Other missense variant is known to change same aminoacid residue: Variant chr4-54727437-T-C is described in ClinVar as [Likely_pathogenic]. Clinvar id is 375909.Status of the report is criteria_provided_multiple_submitters_no_conflicts, 2 stars.
• PP2: Missense variant in gene, where missense usually causes diseases (based on misZ statistic), KIT. . Gene score misZ 2.5806 (greater than the threshold 3.09). Trascript score misZ 4.1549 (greater than threshold 3.09). GenCC has associacion of gene with piebaldism, gastrointestinal stromal tumor, mastocytosis, cutaneous mastocytosis.
• PP3: MetaRNN computational evidence supports a deleterious effect, 0.907
