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]

Hereditary cancer-predisposing syndrome Uncertain:1
Feb 26, 2016
Ambry Genetics
Significance:Uncertain significance
Review Status:criteria provided, single submitter
Collection Method:clinical testing

The p.R720W variant (also known as c.2158C>T), located in coding exon 18 of the NF1 gene, results from a C to T substitution at nucleotide position 2158. The arginine at codon 720 is replaced by tryptophan, 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 0.004% (greater than 110000 alleles tested) in our clinical cohort.This amino acid position is highly conserved in available vertebrate species. In addition, the in silico prediction for this alteration is inconclusive.Since supporting evidence is limited at this time, the clinical significance of p.R720W remains unclear. -

Mar 22, 2022
Ambry Genetics
Significance:Likely benign
Review Status:criteria provided, single submitter
Collection Method:clinical testing

This alteration is classified as likely benign based on a combination of the following: seen in unaffected individuals, population frequency, intact protein function, lack of segregation with disease, co-occurrence, RNA analysis, in silico models, amino acid conservation, lack of disease association in case-control studies, and/or the mechanism of disease or impacted region is inconsistent with a known cause of pathogenicity. -
