RASopathy VCEP

The c.178G>C (p.Gly60Arg) variant in KRAS has been reported in the literature as a de novo occurrence in 2 patients with clinical features of a RASopathy (PM6_Strong; PMID 16474404, 20949621). In vitro functional studies provide some evidence that the p.Gly60Arg variant may impact protein function (PS3; PMID 20949621). This variant was absent from large population studies (PM2; ExAC, http://exac.broadinstitute.org). The variant is in KRAS, which has been defined by the ClinGen RASopathy Expert Panel as a gene with low rate of benign missense with missense variants commonly being pathogenic (PP2; PMID 29493581). Furthermore, the variant is in a location that has been defined by the ClinGen RASopathy Expert Panel to be a mutational hotspot or domain of KRAS (PM1; PMID 29493581). Computational prediction tools and conservation analysis suggest that the p.Gly60Arg variant may impact the protein (PP3). In summary, this variant meets criteria to be classified as pathogenic for RASopathies in an autosomal dominant manner. ACMG/AMP criteria applied: PM6_Strong, PS3, PM2, PM1, PP3, PP2.

PS3

In vitro functional studies provide some evidence that the p.Gly60Arg variant may impact protein function (PS3; PMID 20949621).
