Noonan Syndrome
- Noonan Syndrome and Noonan-Related Syndromes
A group of RAS pathway conditions, including Noonan, Costello, cardiofaciocutaneous and Legius syndromes, with variable heart defects, short stature and distinctive facial features.
- 1 GenCC submitter rates it definitive or strong
What knowing changes
Knowing about it supports heart, growth and developmental assessment.
Broader groupings
Hypertrophic Cardiomyopathy
- Autosomal dominant
One of 62 genes linked to it
A condition in which the myocardium is hypertrophied without an obvious cause. The hypertrophy is generally asymmetric and may be associated with obstruction of the ventricular outflow tract.
- 1 GenCC submitter rates it definitive or strong
What knowing changes
Beta-blockers, non-dihydropyridine calcium channel blockers, activity restriction, genetic counseling
Inheritance
- Autosomal dominant
- One changed copy, from either parent, is enough. A parent who has one passes it on to each child with a one-in-two chance.
How RRAS is laid out

- Direction of transcription
- Stretches short reads find hard
Exons of the gene's MANE Select transcript (release v1.5), from NCBI and EMBL-EBI, on the GRCh38 reference genome.
Chromosome bands from UCSC's GRCh38 ideogram (2022-10-29).
Nearby genes from Ensembl release 116, on GRCh38.
Exons make up 1 kb of the gene's 4.9 kb; 657 of those bases code for the protein.
