RCV001968983 | SCV002252239 | uncertain significance | Gastrointestinal stromal tumor | 2021-07-19 | criteria provided, single submitter | clinical testing | 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. Algorithms developed to predict the effect of missense changes on protein structure and function (SIFT, PolyPhen-2, Align-GVGD) all suggest that this variant is likely to be disruptive. This variant has not been reported in the literature in individuals affected with KIT-related conditions. This variant is not present in population databases (ExAC no frequency). This sequence change replaces phenylalanine with cysteine at codon 858 of the KIT protein (p.Phe858Cys). The phenylalanine residue is moderately conserved and there is a large physicochemical difference between phenylalanine and cysteine. |
