RCV000530052 | SCV000630522 | uncertain significance | Gastrointestinal stromal tumor | 2023-05-22 | criteria provided, single submitter | clinical testing | This variant has not been reported in the literature in individuals affected with KIT-related conditions. This variant is present in population databases (rs765944197, gnomAD 0.003%). This sequence change replaces threonine, which is neutral and polar, with alanine, which is neutral and non-polar, at codon 253 of the KIT protein (p.Thr253Ala). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 458970). 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 output the following: SIFT: "Not Available"; PolyPhen-2: "Benign"; Align-GVGD: "Not Available". The alanine amino acid residue is found in multiple mammalian species, which suggests that this missense change does not adversely affect protein function. |
