Variant summary

Our verdict is Likely benign. The variant received -6 ACMG points: 1P and 7B. PP2BP4_ModerateBP6BS2

The NM_000222.3(KIT):c.1201G>A(p.Ala401Thr) variant causes a missense change involving the alteration of a non-conserved nucleotide. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 0.0000112 in 1,610,642 control chromosomes in the GnomAD database, with no homozygous occurrence. In-silico tool predicts a benign outcome for this variant. 17/22 in silico tools predict a benign outcome for this variant. Variant has been reported in ClinVar as Conflicting classifications of pathogenicity (no stars). Another variant affecting the same amino acid position, but resulting in a different missense (i.e. A401S) has been classified as Likely benign.

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]

ACMG classification

Classification was made for transcript

Our verdict: Likely_benign. The variant received -6 ACMG points.

PP2

Missense variant in the KIT gene, where missense mutations are typically associated with disease (based on misZ statistic). The gene has 54 curated pathogenic missense variants (we use a threshold of 10). The gene has 7 curated benign missense variants. Gene score misZ: 2.5806 (below the threshold of 3.09). Trascript score misZ: 4.1549 (above the threshold of 3.09). GenCC associations: The gene is linked to cutaneous mastocytosis, gastrointestinal stromal tumor, mastocytosis, piebaldism.

BP4

Computational evidence support a benign effect (MetaRNN=0.08615562).

BP6

Variant 4-54709509-G-A is Benign according to our data. Variant chr4-54709509-G-A is described in ClinVar as Conflicting_classifications_of_pathogenicity. ClinVar VariationId is 528525.

BS2

High AC in GnomAdExome4 at 17 AD gene.
