KRAS c.531_533del

The KRAS c.531_533del (p.Lys180del) variant has not been observed in COSMIC and is reported in ClinVar as Benign with expert panel review.1 This variant is present in gnomAD v2.1 at 0.05904% overall and 0.10364% in the highest-frequency subpopulation, and in gnomAD v4.1 at 0.10753% overall and 0.13901% in the highest-frequency subpopulation, exceeding the KRAS RASopathy VCEP BA1 threshold of 0.05% and BS1 threshold of 0.025%.2 Computational evidence does not support a disease-relevant splicing effect; SpliceAI showed a maximum delta score of 0.29, and no REVEL or BayesDel score was available for this in-frame deletion.3
