Classification rationale
1

The KRAS c.173C>T (p.Thr58Ile, T58I) variant has been observed in somatic cancer literature and has also been reported in ClinVar as pathogenic, including expert panel review by the ClinGen RASopathy Variant Curation Expert Panel.

This variant is absent from gnomAD v2.1 and is present only once in gnomAD v4.1 at 1/1613990 alleles (AF 6.19583e-07; 0.00006%), which is far below the KRAS RASopathy VCEP benign frequency thresholds.

In published functional studies, p.Thr58Ile showed defective intrinsic GTP hydrolysis, impaired responsiveness to GAP-mediated regulation, and abnormal downstream signaling; the RASopathy VCEP approved functional study set also includes this variant as a pathogenic or likely pathogenic control in multiple approved assay classes, supporting a gain-of-function effect.

4

Computational evidence supports a deleterious missense effect, with REVEL 0.921 above the VCEP PP3 threshold of 0.7, BayesDel 0.42458, and SpliceAI showing no significant splice effect (max delta score 0.03).
