About NRAS

No gene-level summary was recorded for this case.

LYFE Sciences is an AI system, and it can make mistakes. Criteria may be applied incorrectly, sources may be misread, and a confident-looking classification can still be wrong. Double-check every criterion and its underlying evidence before relying on any call.
01The reasoning

How it was classified

The recorded framework is ClinGen NRAS VCEP v2.3.0. The criteria and strengths shown below come from the saved assessment; this page does not recalculate the classification.

Recorded applied criteria

The applied criteria and their strengths are shown as assessed under the stated framework.

Pathogenic evidence criteria: 5 Benign evidence criteria: 0
Pathogenic criteria applied · 5
PS1Strong
PS1 · strong

p.Gly12Asp (G12D) is the same amino acid change as a previously established pathogenic variant regardless of nucleotide change. G12D is a well-characterized oncogenic substitution in NRAS, KRAS, and HRAS, observed in thousands of somatic cancers (COSMIC n=1303) and reported as Pathogenic in ClinVar by 11 clinical laboratories. The VCEP explicitly authorizes PS1 at Strong for analogous pathogenic residue positions across HRAS, KRAS, MRAS, NRAS, RIT1, and RRAS2.

PS3Moderate
PS3 · moderate

Well-established in vitro and in vivo functional studies demonstrate a gain-of-function effect for NRAS G12D. The VCEP-approved RAS Activation Assay, MEK Activation Assay, and ERK Activation Assay are all applicable to NRAS. N-RasG12D shows increased GTP-bound Ras (RAF-RBD pulldown), constitutive MEK and ERK phosphorylation in multiple cell types, and transforming activity in focus formation assays. Mouse models with endogenous NrasG12D expression develop myeloproliferative neoplasms. G12D is validated as a pathogenic/likely pathogenic control in VCEP-approved ERK Activation Assay for HRAS, supporting functional analogy across RAS paralogs. At least two different approved assay types (RAS Activation and MEK/ERK Activation) demonstrate damaging effect.

PM1Moderate
PM1 · moderate

Gly12 is located within the P-loop domain (amino acids 10-17), a critical and well-established functional domain defined in the VCEP supplementary table. The P-loop is essential for GTP binding and RAS protein function. This domain has no benign variation and is a known mutational hotspot.

PM5Moderate
PM5 · moderate

At codon 12 of NRAS, multiple different missense changes have been established as pathogenic: G12V, G12C, G12S, and G12A are all recognized oncogenic substitutions. The VCEP PM5 Moderate rule is satisfied when ≥1 [likely] pathogenic residue change exists at the same codon. G12D represents a novel residue change at a codon with established pathogenic variants.

PP3Supporting
PP3 · supporting

REVEL score is 0.783, which meets the VCEP threshold of ≥0.7 for PP3_Supporting for missense variants. SpliceAI predicts no splice impact (max delta = 0.00), consistent with the variant's primary effect being at the protein level. The REVEL score indicates multiple lines of computational evidence support a deleterious effect.

Benign criteria applied · 0

No benign criterion marked as applied in the recorded assessment.

Recorded classification: Uncertain significance

ClinGen RASopathy Expert Panel Specifications to the ACMG/AMP Variant Interpretation Guidelines for NRAS Version 2.3.0 v2.3.0 criteria-combination framework was evaluated deterministically with applied criteria: PS1 strong, PS3 moderate, PM1 moderate, PM5 moderate, PP3 supporting; no rule matched the adjudicated criteria.

NM_002524.5:c.35G>A (p.Gly12Asp) is located in the P-loop domain (AA 10-17), a critical GTP-binding domain defined by the ClinGen RASopathy VCEP as a well-established functional domain without benign variation.

p.Gly12Asp is the same amino acid change as well-established pathogenic variants across NRAS and other RAS paralogs. G12D is a canonical oncogenic substitution reported as Pathogenic in ClinVar by 11 clinical laboratories and observed in 1,303 somatic cancer samples in COSMIC.

Multiple VCEP-approved functional assays demonstrate that NRAS G12D is a gain-of-function variant. N-RasG12D exhibits increased GTP-bound Ras (RAS Activation Assay), constitutive MEK and ERK phosphorylation (MEK/ERK Activation Assays), and transforming activity in focus formation assays.

At codon 12, multiple different missense changes (G12V, G12C, G12S, G12A) have been established as pathogenic, satisfying PM5 at Moderate strength per the VCEP rule requiring at least one [likely] pathogenic residue change at the same codon.

REVEL score of 0.783 meets the VCEP PP3 threshold (≥0.7), indicating multiple lines of computational evidence support a deleterious effect. SpliceAI predicts no splice impact (max delta = 0.00).

This variant is present in gnomAD at extremely low frequency (v2.1: 0.0008%, 2/251,484 alleles; v4.1: 0.00105%, 17/1,613,956 alleles), with no homozygotes observed. The variant is absent from gnomAD-Canada. These frequencies are well below the VCEP BS1 (≥0.025%) and BA1 (≥0.05%) thresholds.
