Labcorp Genetics (formerly Invitae), Labcorp RCV000654590 SCV000776484 uncertain significance Multiple endocrine neoplasia, type 2 2024-12-11 criteria provided, single submitter clinical testing This sequence change replaces tyrosine, which is neutral and polar, with asparagine, which is neutral and polar, at codon 408 of the RET protein (p.Tyr408Asn). The frequency data for this variant in the population databases is considered unreliable, as metrics indicate poor data quality at this position in the gnomAD database. This variant has not been reported in the literature in individuals affected with RET-related conditions. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 543751). 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.
Ambry Genetics RCV001010408 SCV001170607 uncertain significance Hereditary cancer-predisposing syndrome 2024-05-10 criteria provided, single submitter clinical testing The p.Y408N variant (also known as c.1222T>A), located in coding exon 6 of the RET gene, results from a T to A substitution at nucleotide position 1222. The tyrosine at codon 408 is replaced by asparagine, an amino acid with dissimilar properties. This amino acid position is highly conserved in available vertebrate species. In addition, the in silico prediction for this alteration is inconclusive. Since supporting evidence is limited at this time, the clinical significance of this alteration remains unclear.
