Variant summary

Our verdict is Pathogenic. The variant received 12 ACMG points: 12P and 0B. PM1PM2PM5PP3_StrongPP5_Moderate

The NM_004304.5(ALK):​c.3521T>G​(p.Phe1174Cys) 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. Variant has been reported in ClinVar as Likely pathogenic (★). Another variant affecting the same amino acid position, but resulting in a different missense (i.e. F1174L) has been classified as Pathogenic.

Genes affected
ALK (HGNC:427): (ALK receptor tyrosine kinase) This gene encodes a receptor tyrosine kinase, which belongs to the insulin receptor superfamily. This protein comprises an extracellular domain, an hydrophobic stretch corresponding to a single pass transmembrane region, and an intracellular kinase domain. It plays an important role in the development of the brain and exerts its effects on specific neurons in the nervous system. This gene has been found to be rearranged, mutated, or amplified in a series of tumours including anaplastic large cell lymphomas, neuroblastoma, and non-small cell lung cancer. The chromosomal rearrangements are the most common genetic alterations in this gene, which result in creation of multiple fusion genes in tumourigenesis, including ALK (chromosome 2)/EML4 (chromosome 2), ALK/RANBP2 (chromosome 2), ALK/ATIC (chromosome 2), ALK/TFG (chromosome 3), ALK/NPM1 (chromosome 5), ALK/SQSTM1 (chromosome 5), ALK/KIF5B (chromosome 10), ALK/CLTC (chromosome 17), ALK/TPM4 (chromosome 19), and ALK/MSN (chromosome X).[provided by RefSeq, Jan 2011]

PM1
In a hotspot region, there are 2 aminoacids with missense pathogenic changes in the window of +-8 aminoacids around while only 0 benign, 13 uncertain in NM_004304.5
PM2
Very rare variant in population databases, with high coverage;
PM5
Other missense variant is known to change same aminoacid residue: Variant chr2-29220829-G-C is described in ClinVar as [Pathogenic]. Clinvar id is 217852.Status of the report is no_assertion_criteria_provided, 0 stars.
PP3
MetaRNN computational evidence supports a deleterious effect, 0.967
PP5
Variant 2-29220830-A-C is Pathogenic according to our data. Variant chr2-29220830-A-C is described in ClinVar as [Likely_pathogenic]. Clinvar id is 375887.Status of the report is criteria_provided_single_submitter, 1 stars.

The ALK c.3521T>G variant is predicted to result in the amino acid substitution p.Phe1174Cys. This variant has been reported in somatic context in neuroblastoma tumors (Chang et al. 2015. PubMed ID: 26619011; Janoueix-Lerosey et al 2008. PubMed ID: 18923523). This variant has not been reported in a large population database (http://gnomad.broadinstitute.org), indicating this variant is rare. Other variants at this codon p.Phe1174Val/Leu/Ile/Gln have been reported in somatic context in neuroblastoma and other tumor types and have been shown to be gain-of-function mutations (Chang et al. 2015. PubMed ID: 26619011; Janoueix-Lerosey et al. 2008. PubMed ID: 18923523; Bresler et al. 2011. PubMed ID: 22072639; Schönherr et al 2011. PubMed ID: 21838707). An alternate variant at this codon p.Phe1174Val has been reported as germline de novo mutation in a neonate with IUGR, hypotonia, gastroesophageal reflux, tracheobronchomalacia, calcified adrenal masses on thoracoabdominal CT scan at 3 weeks of age, patent foramen ovale with prolonged QT, bilateral hernia, abdominal distention, difficulty in swallowing, and abnormal shape of the brainstem with multifocal neuroblastoma of neonatal onset (de Pontual et al. 2011. PubMed ID: 21972109). This variant p.Phe1174Cys was observed as germline de novo mutation in neonate with IUGR, seizures, respiratory insufficiency, joint contractures, patent foramen ovale, patent ductus arteriosus and metastatic neuroblastoma (Internal data, PreventionGenetics). However, this gene-disease association has not been definitively established. This variant is interpreted as likely pathogenic. -
