Description

The c.3600C>G (p.Asp1200Glu) variant in the SOS1 gene has been identified in at least 6 individuals without detailed phenotypic information as well as one patient with an alternative molecular basis for disease in the BRAF gene (BP5; EGL, Invitae, GeneDx internal data, GTR Lab ID: 500060, 500031, 26957; SCV000854873.1, SCV000553268.3, SCV000209087.11). The filtering allele frequency of the c.3600C>G (p.Asp1200Glu) variant is 0.025% for European (non-Finnish) exomes by the gnomAD database (40/251300 with 95% CI) which is strong evidence to suggest that the variant may be benign based on thresholds defined by the ClinGen RASopathy Expert Panel for autosomal dominant RASopathy variants (BS1). Of note, the c.3600C>A change that also results in p.Asp1200Glu has been identified in one patient with a RASopathy but this variant has not met criteria to be classified as pathogenic and therefore PM5 is not met (Partners LMM internal data; GTR Lab ID: 21766; SCV000062231.5). Computational prediction tools and conservation analysis suggest that the p.Asp1200Glu variant does not impact the protein (BP4). In summary, this variant meets criteria to be classified as likely benign. RASopathy-specific ACMG/AMP criteria applied (PMID:29493581): BS1, BP4, BP5.
