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]
CLIP4 (HGNC:26108): (CAP-Gly domain containing linker protein family member 4) Predicted to enable microtubule plus-end binding activity. Predicted to be involved in cytoplasmic microtubule organization. Located in intracellular membrane-bounded organelle. [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Apr 2022]

Likely benign, no assertion criteria providedclinical testingDepartment of Pathology and Laboratory Medicine, Sinai Health System-The ALK p.Glu1435del variant was not identified in the literature nor was it identified in Cosmic or LOVD 3.0. The variant was identified in dbSNP (ID: rs138827116) and in ClinVar (classified as likely benign by EGL Genetics and Illumina and as benign by Invitae). The variant was identified in control databases in 488 of 266110 chromosomes (4 homozygous) at a frequency of 0.001834 increasing the likelihood this could be a low frequency benign variant (Genome Aggregation Database Feb 27, 2017). The variant was observed in the following populations: African in 456 of 24732 chromosomes (freq: 0.01844), Other in 4 of 6686 chromosomes (freq: 0.000598), Latino in 18 of 33230 chromosomes (freq: 0.000542), Ashkenazi Jewish in 2 of 8558 chromosomes (freq: 0.000234), European (non-Finnish) in 7 of 122668 chromosomes (freq: 0.000057) and South Asian in 1 of 26748 chromosomes (freq: 0.000037); it was not observed in the East Asian and European (Finnish) populations. This variant is an in-frame deletion resulting in the removal of a glutamic acid (Glu) residue at codon 1435; the impact of this alteration on ALK protein function is not known. In summary, based on the above information the clinical significance of this variant cannot be determined with certainty at this time although we would lean towards a more benign role for this variant. This variant is classified as likely benign. -

Hereditary cancer-predisposing syndrome Benign:1
Benign, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingAmbry GeneticsSep 24, 2018This alteration is classified as benign based on a combination of the following: seen in unaffected individuals, population frequency, intact protein function, lack of segregation with disease, co-occurrence, RNA analysis, in silico models, amino acid conservation, lack of disease association in case-control studies, and/or the mechanism of disease or impacted region is inconsistent with a known cause of pathogenicity. -
