Variant summary

Our verdict is Pathogenic. The variant received 17 ACMG points: 17P and 0B. PP3 PP2 PM6 PM2 PM1 PS3 PS2 PS4_Supporting

This summary comes from the ClinGen Evidence Repository: The c.1391G>A (p.Gly464Glu) variant in BRAF has been observed in 2 probands with phenotypes consistent with cardiofaciocutaneous syndrome (PS4_Supporting; LMM internal data, SCV000197160.4; GeneDx internal data, SCV000057209.13). One of these cases was de novo with maternity and paternity confirmed, while the other was de novo without confirmation of maternity or paternity (PS2, PM6). The p.Gly464Glu variant was absent from large population studies (PM2; gnomad.broadinstitute.org). In vitro functional assays indicate that this variant may impact protein function (PS3; PMID:25155755). It occurs in the P-loop domain of the protein, which has been identified as an important region for protein function (PM1; 29493581). Computational prediction tools and conservation analyses also suggest that this variant may impact the protein (PP3). The variant is located in the BRAF gene, which has been defined by the ClinGen RASopathy Expert Panel as a gene with a low rate of benign missense variants and pathogenic variants are common (PP2; PMID:29493581). Of note, this variant has also been observed in association with somatic malignancies; however, analysis and classification of somatic variation is currently not used to inform germline classifications for the RASopathies. In summary, this variant meets criteria to be classified as pathogenic for autosomal dominant RASopathy.

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]
