Genes affected

MET (HGNC:7029): (MET proto-oncogene, receptor tyrosine kinase) This gene encodes a member of the receptor tyrosine kinase family of proteins and the product of the proto-oncogene MET. The encoded preproprotein is proteolytically processed to generate alpha and beta subunits that are linked via disulfide bonds to form the mature receptor. Further processing of the beta subunit results in the formation of the M10 peptide, which has been shown to reduce lung fibrosis. Binding of its ligand, hepatocyte growth factor, induces dimerization and activation of the receptor, which plays a role in cellular survival, embryogenesis, and cellular migration and invasion. Mutations in this gene are associated with papillary renal cell carcinoma, hepatocellular carcinoma, and various head and neck cancers. Amplification and overexpression of this gene are also associated with multiple human cancers. [provided by RefSeq, May 2016]

MET links:

COMETT (HGNC:51196): (cytosolic oncogenic antisense to MET transcript) This gene encodes a natural antisense transcript highly expressed in papillary thyroid carcinomas harboring BRAF V600E mutation or RET gene rearrangements. This lncRNA induces the downstream MAPK pathway and is part of a co-expression network including different oncogenes belonging to the MAPK and PI3H/AKT pathways. In thyroid carcinomas, this gene has oncogenic properties associated with increased proliferation and drug resistance. [provided by RefSeq, Jan 2020]

Significance:Uncertain significance

Review Status:criteria provided, single submitter

Collection Method:clinical testing

The MET c.762A>C (p.Glu254Asp) variant has not been reported in individuals with MET-related conditions in the published literature. The frequency of this variant in the general population, 0.000016 (4/249344 chromosomes (Genome Aggregation Database, http://gnomad.broadinstitute.org)), is uninformative in the assessment of its pathogenicity. Analysis of this variant using bioinformatics tools for the prediction of the effect of amino acid changes on protein structure and function yielded predictions that this variant is benign. Based on the available information, we are unable to determine the clinical significance of this variant. -

This alteration is classified as likely benign based on a combination of the following: seen in unaffected individuals, population frequency, intact protein function, lack of segregation with disease, co-occurrence, RNA analysis, in silico models, amino acid conservation, lack of disease association in case-control studies, and/or the mechanism of disease or impacted region is inconsistent with a known cause of pathogenicity. -

Collection Method:clinical testing

The MET c.762A>C variant is predicted to result in the amino acid substitution p.Glu254Asp. To our knowledge, this variant has not been reported in the literature. This variant is reported in 0.0029% of alleles in individuals of Latino descent in gnomAD (http://gnomad.broadinstitute.org). Multiple laboratories in ClinVar interpret this variant as uncertain (https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/clinvar/variation/568449/). At this time, the clinical significance of this variant is uncertain due to the absence of conclusive functional and genetic evidence. -

Review Status:criteria provided, single submitter

Collection Method:clinical testing

This sequence change replaces glutamic acid, which is acidic and polar, with aspartic acid, which is acidic and polar, at codon 254 of the MET protein (p.Glu254Asp). This variant is present in population databases (rs760278126, gnomAD 0.003%). This variant has not been reported in the literature in individuals affected with MET-related conditions. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 568449). Invitae Evidence Modeling of protein sequence and biophysical properties (such as structural, functional, and spatial information, amino acid conservation, physicochemical variation, residue mobility, and thermodynamic stability) indicates that this missense variant is expected to disrupt MET protein function with a positive predictive value of 80%. 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. -

Significance:Uncertain significance

Review Status:criteria provided, single submitter

Collection Method:clinical testing

The MET c.762A>C (p.Glu254Asp) missense change is absent in gnomAD v2.1.1 (https://gnomad.broadinstitute.org/). The in silico tool REVEL predicts a benign effect on protein function, but to our knowledge this prediction has not been confirmed by functional studies. To our knowledge, this variant has not been reported in the literature in individuals with hereditary papillary renal cell carcinoma. In summary, the evidence currently available is insufficient to determine the clinical significance of this variant. It has therefore been classified as of uncertain significance. -
