Genes affected
RET (HGNC:9967): (ret proto-oncogene) This gene encodes a transmembrane receptor and member of the tyrosine protein kinase family of proteins. Binding of ligands such as GDNF (glial cell-line derived neurotrophic factor) and other related proteins to the encoded receptor stimulates receptor dimerization and activation of downstream signaling pathways that play a role in cell differentiation, growth, migration and survival. The encoded receptor is important in development of the nervous system, and the development of organs and tissues derived from the neural crest. This proto-oncogene can undergo oncogenic activation through both cytogenetic rearrangement and activating point mutations. Mutations in this gene are associated with Hirschsprung disease and central hypoventilation syndrome and have been identified in patients with renal agenesis. [provided by RefSeq, Sep 2017]

All of Us Research Program, National Institutes of Health
Significance:Uncertain significance
Review Status:criteria provided, single submitter
Collection Method:clinical testing

This missense variant replaces proline with histidine at codon 117 of the RET protein. Computational prediction is inconclusive regarding the impact of this variant on protein structure and function (internally defined REVEL score threshold 0.5 < inconclusive < 0.7, PMID: 27666373). To our knowledge, functional studies have not been reported for this variant. This variant has been reported in an individual affected with acute lymphoblastic leukemia (PMID: 32084258). This variant has been identified in 3/250788 chromosomes in the general population by the Genome Aggregation Database (gnomAD). The available evidence is insufficient to determine the role of this variant in disease conclusively. Therefore, this variant is classified as a Variant of Uncertain Significance. -

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

This sequence change replaces proline, which is neutral and non-polar, with histidine, which is basic and polar, at codon 117 of the RET protein (p.Pro117His). This variant is present in population databases (rs763295929, gnomAD 0.002%). This variant has not been reported in the literature in individuals affected with RET-related conditions. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 543735). 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. -

Collection Method:clinical testing

The p.P117H variant (also known as c.350C>A), located in coding exon 3 of the RET gene, results from a C to A substitution at nucleotide position 350. The proline at codon 117 is replaced by histidine, an amino acid with similar properties. In a study of whole-exome sequencing in patients with features of Cowden syndrome (CS) or Bannayan-Riley-Ruvalcaba syndrome (BRRS) and negative PTEN testing, this alteration was identified in 0/87 patients with CS or BRRS and 1/3476 patients from The Cancer Genome Atlas (TCGA) (Yehia L et al. PLoS Genet, 2018 04;14:e1007352). Based on data from gnomAD, the frequency for this variant is above the maximum credible frequency for a MEN2-causing variant in this gene based on internally established thresholds (Karczewski et al. Nature. 2020 May;581(7809):434-443; Whiffin et al. Genet Med. 2017 10;19:1151-1158). This amino acid position is highly conserved in available vertebrate species. In addition, the in silico prediction for this alteration is inconclusive. Based on the supporting evidence, the association of this alteration with Hirschsprung disease is unknown; however, the association of this alteration with MEN2 is unlikely. -
