KIT | N505I | missense | gain of function | KIT N505I lies within the Ig-like C2-type domain 5 (exon 9) of the Kit protein (UniProt.org). N505I results in constitutive phosphorylation of Kit, activation of downstream Akt and Erk, and is transforming in cell culture (PMID: 24317392). |

KIT N505I | melanoma | sensitive | Sorafenib | Preclinical | Actionable | In a preclinical study, KIT N505I induced phosphorylation of KIT, ERK, and AKT, and was inhibited by Nexavar (sorafenib) in cell culture of melanocytes, demonstrating sensitivity of N505I to sorafenib (PMID: 24317392). | 24317392 |
KIT N505I | melanoma | predicted - sensitive | Imatinib | Preclinical | Actionable | In a preclinical study, Gleevec (imatinib) decreased phosphorylation of KIT, AKT, and ERK in melanocytes expressing KIT N505I in culture (PMID: 24317392). | 24317392 |
