It is shown that missense mutations in PTPN11—a gene encoding the nonreceptor protein tyrosine phosphatase SHP-2, which contains two Src homology 2 (SH2) domains—cause Noonan syndrome and account for more than 50% of the cases that were examined.
Somatic mutations in PTPN11 in juvenile myelomonocytic leukemia, myelodysplastic syndromes and acute myeloid leukemia

The spectrum and distribution of PTPN11 mutations in a large, well-characterized cohort with NS revealed that pulmonic stenosis was more prevalent among the group of subjects with NS who had PTP N11 mutations than it was in the group without them, andotype-phenotype analysis revealed that hypertrophic cardiomyopathy was less prevalent among those with PTPn11 mutations.

Comparing the incidence of de novo mutations in severe CHD cases and controls by analysing exome sequencing of parent–offspring trios suggests that several hundreds of genes collectively contribute to approximately 10% of severeCHD.

Gain-of-function RAF1 mutations cause Noonan and LEOPARD syndromes with hypertrophic cardiomyopathy

- 1 August 2007
Ectopically expressed RAF1 mutants from the two HCM hotspots had increased kinase activity and enhanced ERK activation, whereas non–HCM-associated mutants were kinase impaired, which implicate increased RAS signaling in pathological cardiomyocyte hypertrophy.

Gain-of-function SOS1 mutations cause a distinctive form of Noonan syndrome
- M. Tartaglia, L. Pennacchio, B. Gelb
- Biology, MedicineNature Genetics
- 1 September 2006
It is reported that 22 of 129 individuals with Noonan syndrome without PTPN11 or KRAS mutation have missense mutations in SOS1, which encodes a RAS-specific guanine nucleotide exchange factor, and this finding defines a new mechanism by which upregulation of the RAS pathway can profoundly change human development.
