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]

Aug 20, 2024
Labcorp Genetics (formerly Invitae), Labcorp
Significance:Uncertain significance
Review Status:criteria provided, single submitter
Collection Method:clinical testing

This sequence change replaces glycine, which is neutral and non-polar, with arginine, which is basic and polar, at codon 692 of the ALK protein (p.Gly692Arg). This variant is present in population databases (rs373846404, gnomAD 0.007%). This variant has not been reported in the literature in individuals affected with ALK-related conditions. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 470779). 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 disruptive. 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. -

Hereditary cancer-predisposing syndrome Uncertain:1

Ambry Genetics
Significance:Uncertain significance
Review Status:criteria provided, single submitter
Collection Method:clinical testing

The p.G692R variant (also known as c.2074G>A), located in coding exon 12 of the ALK gene, results from a G to A substitution at nucleotide position 2074. The glycine at codon 692 is replaced by arginine, an amino acid with dissimilar properties. This amino acid position is conserved. In addition, this alteration is predicted to be deleterious by in silico analysis. Based on the available evidence, the clinical significance of this variant remains unclear. -
