The CBL c.1259G>A variant is predicted to result in the amino acid substitution p.Arg420Gln. This variant has been reported in an individual with acute myeloid leukemia (AML) (Sargin et al. 2007. PubMed ID: 17446348), and in a family with Noonan syndrome-like phenotype (Martinelli et al. 2010. PubMed ID: 20619386). This variant alters the conserved residue located in the RING finger domain which is a known mutational hot spot in myeloid malignancies. Functional studies showed that this variant causes aberrant ubiquitylation and trafficking of EGFR (Martinelli et al. 2010. PubMed ID: 20619386; Brand et al. 2014. PubMed ID: 25178484; Kiel et al. 2014. PubMed ID: 24803665). This variant is reported in 0.0028% of alleles in individuals of Latino descent in gnomAD. In summary, this variant is interpreted as likely pathogenic. -

Based on the classification scheme VCGS_Germline_v1.3.4, this variant is classified as Likely pathogenic. Following criteria are met: 0105 - The mechanism of disease for this gene is not clearly established. However, dominant negative is a likely mechanism of disease (PMID: 20619386, 20694012). (I) 0107 - This gene is associated with autosomal dominant disease. (I) 0115 - Variants in this gene are known to have variable expressivity. Germline CBL pathogenic variants are associated with phenotypic heterogeneity and variable expressivity (PMID: 25952305). (I) 0200 - Variant is predicted to result in a missense amino acid change from arginine to glutamine. (I) 0251 - This variant is heterozygous. (I) 0302 - Variant is present in gnomAD (v3) <0.001 for a dominant condition (3 heterozygotes, 0 homozygotes). (SP) 0501 - Missense variant consistently predicted to be damaging by multiple in silico tools or highly conserved with a major amino acid change. (SP) 0602 - Variant is located in a hotspot region or cluster of pathogenic variants. Pathogenic variants cluster in the linker region and RING finger domain (PMID: 25952305). (SP) 0710 - Other missense variants comparable to the one identified in this case have inconclusive previous evidence for pathogenicity. p.(Arg420Leu) and p.(Arg420Pro) have both been once classified as a variant of unknown significance in ClinVar. (I) 0801 - This variant has strong previous evidence of pathogenicity in unrelated individuals. This variant has been reported as pathogenic/likely pathogenic six times in ClinVar, and has been reported in the literature in an individual diagnosed with Noonan syndrome-like disorder (PMID: 20619386, 22190897). (SP) 1002 - This variant has moderate functional evidence supporting abnormal protein function. p.(Arg420Gln) mutants were expressed in vitro. Compared to wild-type cells, mutants showed impaired EGFR ubiquitylation and increased RAS-MAPK signalling (PMID: 20619389, 25178484). (SP) 1206 - This variant has been shown to be paternally inherited (by trio analysis). (I) Legend: (SP) - Supporting pathogenic, (I) - Information, (SB) - Supporting benign -

The CBL c.1259G>A; p.Arg420Gln variant (rs267606708) is reported in the literature in at least four individuals affected with Noonan syndrome-like disorders (Kauffman 2021, Martinelli 2010). This variant is also reported in ClinVar (Variation ID: 13810). This variant is only observed on two alleles in the Genome Aggregation Database, indicating it is not a common polymorphism. In vitro functional analyses demonstrate that this mutation disrupts CBL ubiquitin ligase activity and trafficking of EGFR (Brand 2014, Martinelli 2010). Computational analyses predict that this variant is deleterious (REVEL: 0.858). Based on available information, this variant is considered to be likely pathogenic. References: Brand K et al.

Functional studies demonstrate that R420Q impairs epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) ubiquitylation and degredation, and the R420Q-containing RING domain is not able to function as an E3 ubiquitin ligase (PMID: 25178484, 17446348); This variant is associated with the following publications: (PMID: 19734451, 24803665, 17446348, 21768087, 20619386, 25952305, 32054657, 31751678, 32855275, 34026204, 35033063, 33627783, 33512474, 35967575, 22246246, 35008940, 33318624, 33372952, 34906245, 35583390, 25178484, 22315494) -
RASopathy Pathogenic:2
This sequence change replaces arginine, which is basic and polar, with glutamine, which is neutral and polar, at codon 420 of the CBL protein (p.Arg420Gln). This variant is present in population databases (rs267606708, gnomAD no frequency). This missense change has been observed in individuals with clinical features of Noonan syndrome (PMID: 20619386, 33318624). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 13810). Invitae Evidence Modeling of protein sequence and biophysical properties (such as structural, functional, and spatial information, amino acid conservation, physicochemical variation, residue mobility, and thermodynamic stability) indicates that this missense variant is expected to disrupt CBL protein function with a positive predictive value of 95%. Experimental studies have shown that this missense change affects CBL function (PMID: 17446348, 20619386, 22246246, 25178484, 33627783). For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. -
Variant summary: CBL c.1259G>A (p.Arg420Gln) results in a conservative amino acid change to a highly conserved residue (HGMD) located in the RING-type Zinc finger (IPR001841) of the encoded protein sequence. Four of five in-silico tools predict a damaging effect of the variant on protein function. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 4e-06 in 251418 control chromosomes. c.1259G>A has been reported in the literature in individuals affected with Noonan Syndrome And Related Conditions (e.g. Digilio_2010, Kauffmann_2021, Martinelli_2010). These data indicate that the variant is likely to be associated with disease. At least three publications report experimental evidence evaluating an impact on protein function, finding that the variant inhibits CBL ubiquitin ligase function and EGFR trafficking (Sargin_2007, Martinelli_2010, Brand_2014). Seven submitters have provided clinical-significance assessments for this variant to ClinVar after 2014, and classified it as pathogenic/likely pathogenic (n=6) or uncertain significance (n=1). Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as pathogenic. -
