Genes affected
RALA (HGNC:9839): (RAS like proto-oncogene A) The product of this gene belongs to the small GTPase superfamily, Ras family of proteins. GTP-binding proteins mediate the transmembrane signaling initiated by the occupancy of certain cell surface receptors. This gene encodes a low molecular mass ras-like GTP-binding protein that shares about 50% similarity with other ras proteins. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]

Significance:Pathogenic
Review Status:criteria provided, single submitter
Collection Method:clinical testing

This sequence change replaces valine, which is neutral and non-polar, with methionine, which is neutral and non-polar, at codon 25 of the RALA protein (p.Val25Met). This variant is not present in population databases (gnomAD no frequency). For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. Experimental studies have shown that this missense change affects RALA function (PMID: 30500825). 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 RALA protein function. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 521019). This missense change has been observed in individual(s) with RALA-related conditions (PMID: 30500825, 30761613). In at least one individual the variant was observed to be de novo. -

Based on the classification scheme VCGS_Germline_v1.3.4, this variant is classified as Pathogenic. Following criteria are met: 0102 - Loss of function is a known mechanism of disease in this gene and is associated with Hiatt-Neu-Cooper neurodevelopmental syndrome (MIM#619311). However, gain of function is also suspected (PMID: 30500825). (I) 0107 - This gene is associated with autosomal dominant disease. (I) 0200 - Variant is predicted to result in a missense amino acid change from valine to methionine. (I) 0251 - This variant is heterozygous. (I) 0301 - Variant is absent from gnomAD (both v2 and v3). (SP) 0501 - Missense variant consistently predicted to be damaging by multiple in silico tools or highly conserved with a major amino acid change. (SP) 0603 - Missense variant in a region that is highly intolerant to missense variation (high constraint region in DECIPHER). (SP) 0703 - Another missense variant comparable to the one identified in this case has moderate previous evidence for pathogenicity. This alternative change (p.(Val25Leu)) has been reported as pathogenic (ClinVar), and observed as de novo in monozygotic twins with profound intellectual disability, absent speech and an abnormal MRI (PMID: 30500825). (SP) 0801 - This variant has strong previous evidence of pathogenicity in unrelated individuals. This variant has been reported as pathogenic (LOVD, ClinVar), and observed in at least three de novo individuals with intellectual disability and speech delay (PMID: 30500825). (SP) 1208 - Inheritance information for this variant is not currently available in this individual. (I) Legend: (SP) - Supporting pathogenic, (I) - Information, (SB) - Supporting benign -
