Evidence submitted by expert panel
RASopathy VCEP
The c.215C>T (p.Ala72Val) variant in PTPN11 has been reported in 1 patient clinically diagnosed with both Noonan syndrome and juvenile myelomonocytic leukemia (PS4_Supporting; PMID: 30896080). It was absent from large population studies (PM2; gnomad.broadinstitute.org). It occurs in the N-SH2 domain of the protein, which has been identified as a region important for protein function (PM1, 29493581). In vitro functional assays indicate that this variant may impact protein function (PS3; PMID: 30896080). Computational prediction tools and conservation analyses also suggest that this variant may impact the protein (PP3). The variant is located in the PTPN11 gene, which has been defined by the ClinGen RASopathy Expert Panel as a gene with a low rate of benign missense variants and pathogenic variants are common (PP2; PMID: 29493581). Of note, this variant has also been observed in association with somatic malignancies; however, analysis and classification of somatic variation is currently not used to inform germline classifications for the RASopathies. In summary, this variant meets criteria to be classified as pathogenic for autosomal dominant Noonan syndrome. RASopathy-specific ACMG/AMP criteria applied: PS3, PS4_Supporting, PM1, PM2, PP2, PP3.
Met criteria codes
PS3
SHP-2 phosphatase assay by Bocchinfuso et al. 2017 (PMID: 17177198) demonstrates increased phosphatase activity for this variant.

PP2
The variant is located in the PTPN11 gene, which has been defined by the ClinGen RASopathy Expert Panel as a gene with a low rate of benign missense variants and pathogenic missense variants are common (PP2; PMID: 29493581).
PP3
Computational prediction tools and conservation analysis suggest that the p.Ala72Val variant may impact the protein (PP3). REVEL score 0.921. This aa is entirely conserved in the UCSC database. Splicing is not predicted to be impacted.
PM1
Directly interacting residues between N-SH2 and PTPN domains: 4, 7-9, 58-63, 69-77, 247, 251, 255, 256, 258, 261, 265, 278-281, 284 (Gelb et al. 2018).

PM2
Absent from both gnomAD v2.1.1 and v3.
PS4_Supporting
Yu et al. 2019 (PMID: 30896080) reported 1 patient clinically diagnosed with both NS and JMML. Of note, this variant has also been observed in association with somatic malignancies; however, analysis and classification of somatic variation is currently not used to inform germline classifications for the RASopathies.
