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]

Submissions by phenotype

KIT-related disorder Uncertain:1
Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingPreventionGenetics, part of Exact SciencesJan 18, 2024The KIT c.2554G>A variant is predicted to result in the amino acid substitution p.Val852Ile. This variant has been reported in a healthy, ancestrally diverse genome sequencing cohort (Table S1, Bodian et al. 2014. PubMed ID: 24728327). This variant is reported in 0.0035% of alleles in individuals of European (Non-Finnish) descent in gnomAD. It is interpreted as uncertain significance in ClinVar (https://preview.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/clinvar/variation/134625/). At this time, the clinical significance of this variant is uncertain due to the absence of conclusive functional and genetic evidence. -
not provided Uncertain:1
Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingGeneDxSep 07, 2023Not observed at significant frequency in large population cohorts (gnomAD); In silico analysis supports that this missense variant does not alter protein structure/function; Observed in an individual from a high-risk colorectal cancer family (Martin-Morales et al., 2018); This variant is associated with the following publications: (PMID: 24728327, 30256826) -
Gastrointestinal stromal tumor Uncertain:1
Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingInvitaeJan 19, 2024This sequence change replaces valine, which is neutral and non-polar, with isoleucine, which is neutral and non-polar, at codon 852 of the KIT protein (p.Val852Ile). This variant is present in population databases (rs555650901, gnomAD 0.004%). 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: 134625). 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
Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingAmbry GeneticsNov 08, 2018The p.V852I variant (also known as c.2554G>A), located in coding exon 18 of the KIT gene, results from a G to A substitution at nucleotide position 2554. The valine at codon 852 is replaced by isoleucine, an amino acid with highly similar properties. This amino acid position is highly conserved in available vertebrate species. In addition, the in silico prediction for this alteration is inconclusive. Since supporting evidence is limited at this time, the clinical significance of this alteration remains unclear. -
