The variant received 2 classification points (ACGS-UK Somatic Oncogenicity v2025). O3_Moderate

The NM_001042492.3(NF1):c.839T>A (p.Ile280Lys) variant causes a missense change involving the alteration of a non-conserved nucleotide. The gene NF1 is a tumor suppressor gene (CancerMine: 101 TSG, 30 oncogene, 95 driver citations). The gene NF1 is a known oncogene (CancerMine: 101 TSG, 30 oncogene, 95 driver citations). The gene NF1 is a cancer driver gene (CancerMine: 101 TSG, 30 oncogene, 95 driver citations). The variant is absent from the gnomAD population database at sites with sufficient sequencing coverage. Splicing prediction tools (SpliceAI) predict no significant impact on normal splicing. No clinical diagnostic laboratories have submitted clinical-significance assessments for this variant to ClinVar. Other variants at the same amino acid position have been reported in ClinVar (not pathogenic): p.I280T: Uncertain_significance (ClinVar VariationId 517245, 1 star)

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]
