Variant summary

Our verdict is Likely benign. Variant got -2 ACMG points: 0P and 2B. BP7BP4

This summary comes from the ClinGen Evidence Repository: The c.*7T>C variant in the 3' UTR of BRAF is classified as likely benign because it occurs in a noncoding region, computational splice analyses do not predict an impact on splicing, and Alamut indicates that this nucleotide is not highly conserved (BP4, BP7). It has been identified in 0.0008791% (1/113754) of non-Finnish European chromosomes in gnomAD v2. RASopathy-specific ACMG/AMP Criteria applied (PMID:29493581): BP4, BP7.

Genes affected
BRAF (HGNC:1097): (B-Raf proto-oncogene, serine/threonine kinase) This gene encodes a protein belonging to the RAF family of serine/threonine protein kinases. This protein plays a role in regulating the MAP kinase/ERK signaling pathway, which affects cell division, differentiation, and secretion. Mutations in this gene, most commonly the V600E mutation, are the most frequently identified cancer-causing mutations in melanoma, and have been identified in various other cancers as well, including non-Hodgkin lymphoma, colorectal cancer, thyroid carcinoma, non-small cell lung carcinoma, hairy cell leukemia and adenocarcinoma of lung. Mutations in this gene are also associated with cardiofaciocutaneous, Noonan, and Costello syndromes, which exhibit overlapping phenotypes. A pseudogene of this gene has been identified on the X chromosome. [provided by RefSeq, Aug 2017]

Likely benign, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingLaboratory for Molecular Medicine, Mass General Brigham Personalized MedicineAug 06, 2010The 2301+7T>C variant in BRAF occurs in the 3' UTR. This variant has not been pr eviously reported in the literature or been identified in our laboratory. This v ariant is not located in a region of high nucleotide conservation; however, this type of variant has not been previously reported as pathogenic in an individual with a Noonan spectrum disorder. The 3'UTR contains regulatory elements essenti al for the regulation and transport of the mRNA transcript, and variants in this region could result in dysregulation or disruption of these functions. While it is likely that this variant is benign, we cannot rule out that it may contribut e to the clinical features observed in this individual. -
Noonan syndrome 7 Uncertain:1
Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingIllumina Laboratory Services, IlluminaJan 13, 2018This variant was observed in the ICSL laboratory as part of a predisposition screen in an ostensibly healthy population. It had not been previously curated by ICSL or reported in the Human Gene Mutation Database (HGMD: prior to June 1st, 2018), and was therefore a candidate for classification through an automated scoring system. Utilizing variant allele frequency, disease prevalence and penetrance estimates, and inheritance mode, an automated score was calculated to assess if this variant is too frequent to cause the disease. Based on the score, this variant could not be ruled out of causing disease and therefore its association with disease required further investigation. A literature search was performed for the gene, cDNA change, and amino acid change (if applicable). No publications were found based on this search. This variant was therefore classified as a variant of unknown significance for this disease. -
