Noonan syndrome 7 Pathogenic:4
Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitter | clinical testing | New York Genome Center | Jan 29, 2021 | The heterozygousc.722C>T (p.Thr241Met) variant identified in the BRAF gene has been reported in multiple individuals affected with Noonan, LEOPARD, and Cardio-facio-cutaneous syndromes (PMID: 19206169,32369273). The p.Thr241Met variant has also been reported in anindividual affected with moderate intellectual disability and generalized epilepsy (PMID:30525188). This variant has been reported as heterozygous in one out of 152,100 individuals in the gnomAD(v3) database suggesting it is extremely rare in the populations represented in gnomAD. The variant affects an evolutionary conserved residue and is predicted deleterious by multiple in silico prediction tools. The variant is reported in the ClinVar database as pathogenic/likely pathogenic by multiple independent laboratories (ClinVarID: 29805). A different missense variant affecting the same residue Thr241 has also been reported in individuals affected with Cardio-facio-cutaneous syndrome suggesting that p.Thr241is important for the normalprotein function. Based on the available evidence, the heterozygousc.722C>T (p.Thr241Met) variant identified in the BRAF gene is reported here as Pathogenic. - |

Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitter | clinical testing | Baylor Genetics | Mar 22, 2019 | This variant was determined to be pathogenic according to ACMG Guidelines, 2015 [PMID:25741868]. This variant has been previously reported in one patient with Noonan syndrome [PMID 19206169] Muscle weakness and peripheral neuropathy have been reported in individuals with CFC1 [PMID 16007634, 17437909, 22907230] - |
Cardio-facio-cutaneous syndrome Pathogenic:1
Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitter | clinical testing | Women's Health and Genetics/Laboratory Corporation of America, LabCorp | Apr 24, 2023 | Variant summary: BRAF c.722C>T (p.Thr241Met) results in a non-conservative amino acid change located in the Protein kinase C-like, phorbol ester/diacylglycerol-binding domain (IPR002219) of the encoded protein sequence. Five of five in-silico tools predict a damaging effect of the variant on protein function. The variant was absent in 248524 control chromosomes (gnomAD). c.722C>T has been reported in the literature in multiple individuals affected with Cardiofaciocutaneous Syndrome, Noonan Syndrome and Congenital heart disease (examples: Sarkozy_2009, Jin_2017, Okuzono_2019, Edwards_2020, Lee_2021, and Hiraide_2021) and multiple cases are reported as de novo occurrences (examples: Jin_2017, Okuzono_2019, Edwards_2020, and Hiraide_2021). These data indicate that the variant is very likely to be associated with disease. Ten clinical diagnostic laboratories have submitted clinical-significance assessments for this variant to ClinVar after 2014 and all classified the variant as pathogenic/likely pathogenic. Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as pathogenic. - |
BRAF-related disorder Pathogenic:1
Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitter | clinical testing | PreventionGenetics, part of Exact Sciences | Sep 15, 2023 | The BRAF c.722C>T variant is predicted to result in the amino acid substitution p.Thr241Met. This variant was reported in numerous individuals with BRAF-associated disorders, including at least four de novo cases (Okuzono et al. 2019. PubMed ID: 30414707; supplementary database 2, Edwards et al. 2020. PubMed ID: 32368696; Table S1, Kosaki et al. 2020. PubMed ID: 32369273; Hiraide et al. 2021. PubMed ID: 33644862; Swarts et al. 2022. PubMed ID: 35979676). This variant is reported in 0.00079% of alleles in individuals of European (Non-Finnish) descent in gnomAD (http://gnomad.broadinstitute.org/variant/7-140501350-G-A). This variant is interpreted as pathogenic. - |
Noonan syndrome Pathogenic:1
Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitter | clinical testing | Laboratory for Molecular Medicine, Mass General Brigham Personalized Medicine | Nov 02, 2017 | The p.Thr241Met variant in BRAF has been previously reported in 3 individuals wi th clinical features of Noonan syndrome, including 2 de novo occurrences (LMM da ta, Sarkozy 2009, ClinVar Variation ID 29805). It has also been identified in 1/ 124756 European chromosomes by the Genome Aggregation Database (gnomAD, http://g nomad.broadinstitute.org; dbSNP rs387906660). Furthermore, 3 other missense vari ants at position p.241 (p.Thr241Arg, p.Thr241Pro, p.Thr241Lys) have been identif ied in individuals with clinical features of Noonan syndrome, Cardio-facio-cutan eous syndrome, LEOPARD, or Costello syndrome (Sarkozy 2009, LMM data), suggestin g that changes at this position are not tolerated. In summary, the p.Thr241Met v ariant meets criteria to be classified as pathogenic for Noonan syndrome in an a utosomal dominant manner. ACMG/AMP Criteria applied: PM5_Strong; PM6_Strong; PM2 ; PP2. - |
RASopathy Pathogenic:1
Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitter | clinical testing | Invitae | Apr 04, 2022 | For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. This variant disrupts the p.Thr241 amino acid residue in BRAF. Other variant(s) that disrupt this residue have been determined to be pathogenic (PMID: 17704260, 18042262, 23950000). This suggests that this residue is clinically significant, and that variants that disrupt this residue are likely to be disease-causing. Advanced modeling of protein sequence and biophysical properties (such as structural, functional, and spatial information, amino acid conservation, physicochemical variation, residue mobility, and thermodynamic stability) performed at Invitae indicates that this missense variant is expected to disrupt BRAF protein function. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 29805). This missense change has been observed in individual(s) with Noonan Syndrome (PMID: 19206169). In at least one individual the variant was observed to be de novo. The frequency data for this variant in the population databases is considered unreliable, as metrics indicate poor data quality at this position in the gnomAD database. This sequence change replaces threonine, which is neutral and polar, with methionine, which is neutral and non-polar, at codon 241 of the BRAF protein (p.Thr241Met). - |
