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]

ACMG classification

Classification made for transcript

Verdict is Benign. Variant got -9 ACMG points.

BP4
Computational evidence support a benign effect (BayesDel_noAF=-0.72).
BS1
Variant frequency is greater than expected in population amr. gnomad4_exome allele frequency = 0.00000889 (13/1461854) while in subpopulation AMR AF= 0.000224 (10/44724). AF 95% confidence interval is 0.000121. There are 0 homozygotes in gnomad4_exome. There are 6 alleles in male gnomad4_exome subpopulation. Median coverage is 33. This position pass quality control queck. Existence of Clinvar submissions makes me limit the strength of this signal to Supporting
BS2
High AC in GnomAdExome4 at 13 AD gene.

Submissions by phenotype

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. -
