Genes affected
KIT (HGNC:6342): (KIT proto-oncogene, receptor tyrosine kinase) This gene encodes a receptor tyrosine kinase. This gene was initially identified as a homolog of the feline sarcoma viral oncogene v-kit and is often referred to as proto-oncogene c-Kit. The canonical form of this glycosylated transmembrane protein has an N-terminal extracellular region with five immunoglobulin-like domains, a transmembrane region, and an intracellular tyrosine kinase domain at the C-terminus. Upon activation by its cytokine ligand, stem cell factor (SCF), this protein phosphorylates multiple intracellular proteins that play a role in in the proliferation, differentiation, migration and apoptosis of many cell types and thereby plays an important role in hematopoiesis, stem cell maintenance, gametogenesis, melanogenesis, and in mast cell development, migration and function. This protein can be a membrane-bound or soluble protein. Mutations in this gene are associated with gastrointestinal stromal tumors, mast cell disease, acute myelogenous leukemia, and piebaldism. Multiple transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been found for this gene. [provided by RefSeq, May 2020]

KIT-related disorder Uncertain:1
Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingPreventionGenetics, part of Exact SciencesAug 29, 2023The KIT c.839C>T variant is predicted to result in the amino acid substitution p.Ala280Val. To our knowledge, this variant has not been reported in the literature. This variant is reported in 0.025% of alleles in individuals of African descent in gnomAD (http://gnomad.broadinstitute.org/variant/4-55569972-C-T). This variant is classified as a uncertain variant in the ClinVar (https://preview.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/clinvar/variation/41605/). At this time, the clinical significance of this variant is uncertain due to the absence of conclusive functional and genetic evidence. -

Gastrointestinal stromal tumor Uncertain:1
Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingInvitaeJan 26, 2024This sequence change replaces alanine, which is neutral and non-polar, with valine, which is neutral and non-polar, at codon 280 of the KIT protein (p.Ala280Val). This variant is present in population databases (rs386833402, gnomAD 0.03%). This variant has not been reported in the literature in individuals affected with KIT-related conditions. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 41605). Algorithms developed to predict the effect of missense changes on protein structure and function output the following: SIFT: "Not Available"; PolyPhen-2: "Benign"; Align-GVGD: "Not Available". The valine amino acid residue is found in multiple mammalian species, which suggests that this missense change does not adversely affect protein function. 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
Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingAmbry GeneticsMar 12, 2019The p.A280V variant (also known as c.839C>T), located in coding exon 5 of the KIT gene, results from a C to T substitution at nucleotide position 839. The alanine at codon 280 is replaced by valine, an amino acid with similar properties. This amino acid position is not well conserved in available vertebrate species. In addition, this alteration is predicted to be tolerated by in silico analysis. Since supporting evidence is limited at this time, the clinical significance of this alteration remains unclear. -
