Genes affected

NF1 (HGNC:7765): (neurofibromin 1) This gene product appears to function as a negative regulator of the ras signal transduction pathway. Mutations in this gene have been linked to neurofibromatosis type 1, juvenile myelomonocytic leukemia and Watson syndrome. The mRNA for this gene is subject to RNA editing (CGA>UGA->Arg1306Term) resulting in premature translation termination. Alternatively spliced transcript variants encoding different isoforms have also been described for this gene. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]

ACMG classification

Verdict is Uncertain_significance. Variant got 5 ACMG points.

• PM2: Very rare variant in population databases, with high coverage

Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitter	clinical testing	Genome-Nilou Lab	Mar 15, 2022	- -
Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitter	clinical testing	Labcorp Genetics (formerly Invitae), Labcorp	Nov 19, 2023	This sequence change replaces arginine, which is basic and polar, with leucine, which is neutral and non-polar, at codon 156 of the NF1 protein (p.Arg156Leu). This variant is present in population databases (rs754096545, gnomAD 0.003%). This variant has not been reported in the literature in individuals affected with NF1-related conditions. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 232959). Advanced modeling of protein sequence and biophysical properties (such as structural, functional, and spatial information, amino acid conservation, physicochemical variation, residue mobility, and thermodynamic stability) performed at Invitae indicates that this missense variant is expected to disrupt NF1 protein function with a positive predictive value of 95%. In summary, the available evidence is currently insufficient to determine the role of this variant in disease. Therefore, it has been classified as a Variant of Uncertain Significance. -

This variant is denoted NF1 c.467G>T at the cDNA level, p.Arg156Leu (R156L) at the protein level, and results in the change of an Arginine to a Leucine (CGC>CTC). This variant has not, to our knowledge, been published in the literature as pathogenic or benign. NF1 Arg156Leu was observed at an allele frequency of 0.0032% (1/30,780) in individuals of South Asian ancestry in large population cohorts (Lek 2016). This variant is not located in a known functional domain. In-silico analysis, which includes protein predictors and evolutionary conservation, supports a deleterious effect. Based on currently available evidence, it is unclear whether NF1 Arg156Leu is a pathogenic or benign variant. We consider it to be a variant of uncertain significance. -

The c.467G>T (p.R156L) alteration is located in exon 4 (coding exon 4) of the NF1 gene. This alteration results from a G to T substitution at nucleotide position 467, causing the arginine (R) at amino acid position 156 to be replaced by a leucine (L). Based on insufficient or conflicting evidence, the clinical significance of this alteration remains unclear. -

The p.R156L variant (also known as c.467G>T), located in coding exon 4 of the NF1 gene, results from a G to T substitution at nucleotide position 467. The arginine at codon 156 is replaced by leucine, an amino acid with dissimilar properties. This variant was not reported in population based cohorts in the following databases: Database of Single Nucleotide Polymorphisms (dbSNP), NHLBI Exome Sequencing Project (ESP), and 1000 Genomes Project. In the ESP, this variant was not observed in 6503 samples (13006 alleles) with coverage at this position. To date, this alteration has been detected with an allele frequency of approximately 0.002% (greater than 55000alleles tested) in our clinical cohort.This amino acid position is highly conserved in available vertebrate species. In addition, this alteration is predicted to be deleterious by in silico analysis.Since supporting evidence is limited at this time, the clinical significance of p.R156Lremains unclear. -
