The NM_004304.5(ALK):c.3595A>T(p.Met1199Leu) variant causes a missense change involving the alteration of a conserved nucleotide. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 0.0000118 in 1,613,710 control chromosomes in the GnomAD database, with no homozygous occurrence. In-silico tool predicts a pathogenic outcome for this variant. Variant has been reported in ClinVar as Uncertain significance (★★). Another nucleotide change resulting in same amino acid change has been previously reported as Uncertain significancein ClinVar. Another variant affecting the same amino acid position, but resulting in a different missense (i.e. M1199I) has been classified as Uncertain significance.

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]

Submissions by phenotype

Neuroblastoma, susceptibility to, 3 Uncertain:2
Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingInvitaeDec 04, 2023This sequence change replaces methionine, which is neutral and non-polar, with leucine, which is neutral and non-polar, at codon 1199 of the ALK protein (p.Met1199Leu). This variant is present in population databases (no rsID available, gnomAD 0.0009%). This missense change has been observed in individual(s) with medulloblastoma (PMID: 27179218). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 569205). An algorithm developed to predict the effect of missense changes on protein structure and function (PolyPhen-2) suggests that this variant is likely to be tolerated. In summary, the available evidence is currently insufficient to determine the role of this variant in disease. Therefore, it has been classified as a Variant of Uncertain Significance. -
Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingBaylor GeneticsMay 09, 2019This variant was determined to be of uncertain significance according to ACMG Guidelines, 2015 [PMID:25741868]. -
Hereditary cancer-predisposing syndrome Uncertain:1
Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingAmbry GeneticsJul 07, 2022The p.M1199L variant (also known as c.3595A>T), located in coding exon 23 of the ALK gene, results from an A to T substitution at nucleotide position 3595. The methionine at codon 1199 is replaced by leucine, an amino acid with highly similar properties. This variant has been reported in the germline of an individual with medulloblastoma and was inherited from an unaffected parent (Trubicka J et al. Folia Neuropathol, 2016;54:23-30). This amino acid position is highly conserved in available vertebrate species. In addition, the in silico prediction for this alteration is inconclusive. Since supporting evidence is limited at this time, the clinical significance of this alteration remains unclear. -
