Our verdict is Uncertain significance. Variant got 2 ACMG points: 2P and 0B. PM2
The NM_001376376.1(CELF1):c.1066C>T(p.Leu356Phe) variant causes a missense change involving the alteration of a conserved nucleotide. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 0.000000684 in 1,461,826 control chromosomes in the GnomAD database, with no homozygous occurrence. Variant has been reported in ClinVar as Uncertain significance (★).
CELF1 (HGNC:2549): (CUGBP Elav-like family member 1) Members of the CELF/BRUNOL protein family contain two N-terminal RNA recognition motif (RRM) domains, one C-terminal RRM domain, and a divergent segment of 160-230 aa between the second and third RRM domains. Members of this protein family regulate pre-mRNA alternative splicing and may also be involved in mRNA editing, and translation. This gene may play a role in myotonic dystrophy type 1 (DM1) via interactions with the dystrophia myotonica-protein kinase (DMPK) gene. Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants encoding different isoforms. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]
Review Status: criteria provided, single submitter
Collection Method: clinical testing
The c.1060C>T (p.L354F) alteration is located in exon 12 (coding exon 10) of the CELF1 gene. This alteration results from a C to T substitution at nucleotide position 1060, causing the leucine (L) at amino acid position 354 to be replaced by a phenylalanine (F). Based on insufficient or conflicting evidence, the clinical significance of this alteration remains unclear. -
