| Ambry Genetics | RCV000575671 | SCV000672485 | uncertain significance | Hereditary cancer-predisposing syndrome | 2023-07-06 | criteria provided, single submitter | clinical testing | The p.R1360Q variant (also known as c.4079G>A), located in coding exon 28 of the ALK gene, results from a G to A substitution at nucleotide position 4079. The arginine at codon 1360 is replaced by glutamine, an amino acid with highly similar properties. This amino acid position is highly conserved in available vertebrate species. In addition, this alteration is predicted to be deleterious by in silico analysis. Since supporting evidence is limited at this time, the clinical significance of this alteration remains unclear. |

RCV000702196 | SCV000831040 | uncertain significance | Neuroblastoma, susceptibility to, 3 | 2024-01-18 | criteria provided, single submitter | clinical testing | This sequence change replaces arginine, which is basic and polar, with glutamine, which is neutral and polar, at codon 1360 of the ALK protein (p.Arg1360Gln). This variant is present in population databases (no rsID available, gnomAD 0.004%). This variant has not been reported in the literature in individuals affected with ALK-related conditions. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 485084). An algorithm developed to predict the effect of missense changes on protein structure and function (PolyPhen-2) suggests that this variant is likely to be disruptive. 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. |
