Symbol NS5
Location 3p25.2
Name Noonan syndrome 5
Corresponding gene RAF1
Main clinical features
  • typical heart defect, with hypertrophic cardiomyopathy,
  • typical craniofacial anomalies including hypertelorism, downward slant of palpebral fissures and ptosis, short and webbed neck
  • others : short stature, psychomotor retardation or speech delay, bleeding diasthesis, thorax deformity, cubitus valgus, low-set ears, low posterior hairline, cryptorchidism
  • neoplastic risk, increased risk of juvenile myelomonocytic leukemia
  • Genetic determination autosomal dominant
    Prevalence 3 p100 of all cases
    Function/system disorder cardiovascular
    mental retardation

    Remark(s)
  • increased heterodimerization ability is the common pathogenic mechanism for NS-associated RAF1 mutations (PMID: 22826437))
  • Genotype/Phenotype correlations mutations causing changes in the CR2 domain of RAF1 had hypertrophic cardiomyopathy, whereas affected individuals with mutations leading to changes in the CR3 domain did not
