Genes affected
NRAS (HGNC:7989): (NRAS proto-oncogene, GTPase) This is an N-ras oncogene encoding a membrane protein that shuttles between the Golgi apparatus and the plasma membrane. This shuttling is regulated through palmitoylation and depalmitoylation by the ZDHHC9-GOLGA7 complex. The encoded protein, which has intrinsic GTPase activity, is activated by a guanine nucleotide-exchange factor and inactivated by a GTPase activating protein. Mutations in this gene have been associated with somatic rectal cancer, follicular thyroid cancer, autoimmune lymphoproliferative syndrome, Noonan syndrome, and juvenile myelomonocytic leukemia.

The Gly12Val variant has not been reported in the literature as a germline varia nt and has not been identified in our laboratory. However, it has been reported as a somatic mutation in several types of cancer, including leukemia and melanom a (COSMIC, Houben 2004, Tartaglia, 2004). -

RASopathy Pathogenic:1

Labcorp Genetics (formerly Invitae), Labcorp
Significance:Likely pathogenic
Review Status:criteria provided, single submitter
Collection Method:clinical testing

Advanced modeling of protein sequence and biophysical properties (such as structural, functional, and spatial information, amino acid conservation, physicochemical variation, residue mobility, and thermodynamic stability) performed at Invitae indicates that this missense variant is expected to disrupt NRAS protein function. This variant has been observed in individual(s) with clinical features of a RASopathy condition (PMID: 28594414). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 40470). This variant is not present in population databases (ExAC no frequency). This sequence change replaces glycine with valine at codon 12 of the NRAS protein (p.Gly12Val). The glycine residue is highly conserved and there is a moderate physicochemical difference between glycine and valine. This variant disrupts the p.Gly12 amino acid residue in NRAS. Other variant(s) that disrupt this residue have been determined to be pathogenic (PMID: 28098151, 28594414). This suggests that this residue is clinically significant, and that variants that disrupt this residue are likely to be disease-causing. Experimental studies have shown that this variant affects NRAS protein function (PMID: 21263000). In summary, the currently available evidence indicates that the variant is pathogenic, but additional data are needed to prove that conclusively. Therefore, this variant has been classified as Likely Pathogenic. -
