Variant summary: NF1 c.61-4dupT alters a non-conserved nucleotide located close to a canonical splice site and therefore could affect mRNA splicing, leading to a significantly altered protein sequence. Consensus agreement among computation tools predict no significant impact on normal splicing. However, these predictions have yet to be confirmed by functional studies. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 0.0012 in 175788 control chromosomes in the gnomAD database. The observed variant frequency is approximately 6-fold of the estimated maximal expected allele frequency for a pathogenic variant in NF1 causing Neurofibromatosis Type 1 (0.00021), providing evidence for a benign role. To our knowledge, no occurrence of c.61-4dupT in individuals affected with Neurofibromatosis Type 1 and no experimental evidence demonstrating its impact on protein function have been reported. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 1197213). Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as likely benign. -
