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]

The RET c.3057G>A (p.Ala1019=) synonymous variant has been briefly reported in the published literature in a study of endometrial cancer genomes (PMID: 38408048 (2024)). The frequency of this variant in the general population, 0.000044 (5/113748 chromosomes (Genome Aggregation Database, http://gnomad.broadinstitute.org)), is uninformative in the assessment of its pathogenicity. Analysis of this variant using software algorithms for the prediction of the effect of nucleotide changes on RET mRNA splicing yielded predictions that this variant may result in the gain of a cryptic splice site without affecting the natural splice sites. Based on the available information, we are unable to determine the clinical significance of this variant. -
