Genes affected
RET (HGNC:9967): (ret proto-oncogene) This gene encodes a transmembrane receptor and member of the tyrosine protein kinase family of proteins. Binding of ligands such as GDNF (glial cell-line derived neurotrophic factor) and other related proteins to the encoded receptor stimulates receptor dimerization and activation of downstream signaling pathways that play a role in cell differentiation, growth, migration and survival. The encoded receptor is important in development of the nervous system, and the development of organs and tissues derived from the neural crest. This proto-oncogene can undergo oncogenic activation through both cytogenetic rearrangement and activating point mutations. Mutations in this gene are associated with Hirschsprung disease and central hypoventilation syndrome and have been identified in patients with renal agenesis. [provided by RefSeq, Sep 2017]

Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingMyriad Genetics, Inc.Apr 18, 2023This variant is classified as a variant of uncertain significance as there is insufficient evidence to determine its impact on protein function and/or cancer risk. -
Multiple endocrine neoplasia, type 2 Uncertain:2
Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingInvitaeAug 29, 2022This sequence change replaces methionine, which is neutral and non-polar, with lysine, which is basic and polar, at codon 848 of the RET protein (p.Met848Lys). This variant is present in population databases (rs201101792, gnomAD 0.04%). This variant has not been reported in the literature in individuals affected with RET-related conditions. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 41841). Algorithms developed to predict the effect of missense changes on protein structure and function are either unavailable or do not agree on the potential impact of this missense change (SIFT: "Deleterious"; PolyPhen-2: "Possibly Damaging"; Align-GVGD: "Class C0"). Algorithms developed to predict the effect of sequence changes on RNA splicing suggest that this variant may create or strengthen a splice site. 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 testingAll of Us Research Program, National Institutes of HealthOct 06, 2023This missense variant replaces methionine with lysine at codon 848 of the RET protein. Computational prediction suggests that this variant may have deleterious impact on protein structure and function (internally defined REVEL score threshold >= 0.7, PMID: 27666373). To our knowledge, functional studies have not been reported for this variant. This variant has not been reported in individuals affected with RET-related disorders in the literature. This variant has been identified in 4/250856 chromosomes in the general population by the Genome Aggregation Database (gnomAD). The available evidence is insufficient to determine the role of this variant in disease conclusively. Therefore, this variant is classified as a Variant of Uncertain Significance. -

Hereditary cancer-predisposing syndrome Uncertain:1
Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingAmbry GeneticsAug 21, 2023The p.M848K variant (also known as c.2543T>A), located in coding exon 14 of the RET gene, results from a T to A substitution at nucleotide position 2543. The methionine at codon 848 is replaced by lysine, an amino acid with similar properties. This variant was detected as a secondary finding in1 out of 572 ClinSeq participants, unselected for personal or family history of cancer, who underwent exome sequencing; however, the clinical information for this particular individual was not provided (Johnston JJ et al. Am J Hum Genet, 2012 Jul;91:97-108). This amino acid position is well conserved in available vertebrate species. In addition, this alteration is predicted to be deleterious by in silico analysis. Since supporting evidence is limited at this time, the clinical significance of this alteration remains unclear. -
