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]

In summary, this is a novel variant and without additional functional and/or genetic data, it has been classified as a Variant of Uncertain Significance. While this particular variant has not been reported in the literature, truncating variants in MET are not necessarily pathogenic (PMID: 9140397), and the clinical significance of this variant is uncertain at this time. This sequence change affects an acceptor splice site in intron 18 of the MET gene. It is expected to disrupt mRNA splicing and likely results in an absent or disrupted protein product. -
