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]

NF1 (HGNC:):

ACMG classification

Verdict is Pathogenic. Variant got 12 ACMG points.

• PVS1: Splicing +-2 bp (donor or acceptor) variant, product NOT destroyed by NMD, known LOF gene, truncates exone, which is 0.008685446 fraction of the gene. Cryptic splice site detected, with MaxEntScore 7.8, offset of 13, new splice context is: aagGTattg. Cryptic site results in frameshift change. If cryptic site found is not functional and variant results in exon loss, it results in inframe change.
• PM2: Very rare variant in population databases, with high coverage
• PP5: Variant 17-31201487-T-C is Pathogenic according to our data. Variant chr17-31201487-T-C is described in ClinVar as [Likely_pathogenic]. Clinvar id is 836228.Status of the report is criteria_provided_multiple_submitters_no_conflicts, 2 stars.

Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitter	clinical testing	Labcorp Genetics (formerly Invitae), Labcorp	Oct 28, 2022	For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. Studies have shown that disruption of this splice site results in inclusion of 13 base pairs of intronic sequence and introduces a premature termination codon (PMID: 10677298). The resulting mRNA is expected to undergo nonsense-mediated decay. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 836228). Disruption of this splice site has been observed in individual(s) with clinical features of neurofibromatosis type 1 (PMID: 10677298; Invitae). This variant is not present in population databases (gnomAD no frequency). This sequence change affects a donor splice site in intron 11 of the NF1 gene. RNA analysis indicates that disruption of this splice site induces altered splicing and may result in an absent or disrupted protein product. -

The c.1260+2T>C intronic pathogenic mutation results from a T to C substitution two nucleotides after coding exon 11 in the NF1 gene. This variant is considered to be rare based on population cohorts in the Genome Aggregation Database (gnomAD). This variant has been observed in multiple individuals with a personal and/or family history that is consistent with Neurofibromatosis type 1 (Ambry internal data). This nucleotide position is highly conserved in available vertebrate species. In silico splice site analysis predicts that this alteration will weaken the native splice donor site. RNA studies have demonstrated that this alteration results in abnormal splicing in the set of samples tested (Ambry internal data). Alterations that disrupt the canonical splice site are expected to cause aberrant splicing, resulting in an abnormal protein or a transcript that is subject to nonsense-mediated mRNA decay. As such, this alteration is classified as a disease-causing mutation. -
