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]

Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitter	clinical testing	Labcorp Genetics (formerly Invitae), Labcorp	Dec 12, 2023	This sequence change replaces arginine, which is basic and polar, with glutamine, which is neutral and polar, at codon 888 of the KIT protein (p.Arg888Gln). This variant is present in population databases (rs776681643, gnomAD 0.006%). This missense change has been observed in individual(s) with melanoma, bone marrow failure, and colorectal cancer (PMID: 23020152, 29146883, 29625052, 36451132). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 409758). 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. Experimental studies have shown that this missense change does not substantially affect KIT function (PMID: 23020152). 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. -

The p.R888Q variant (also known as c.2663G>A), located in coding exon 19 of the KIT gene, results from a G to A substitution at nucleotide position 2663. This variant has been detected in a familial melanoma patient (Bourillon A et al. Pigment Cell Melanoma Res, 2013 Jan;26:88-96). Functional analysis by these authors demonstrated reduced KIT activity for the p.R888Q allele compared to wild type protein; however, the difference wasn't significant. The arginine at codon 888 is replaced by glutamine, 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. -
