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 0.009741784 fraction of the gene. No cryptic splice site detected. Exon removal is inframe change.
• PM2: Very rare variant in population databases, with high coverage
• PP5: Variant 17-31227521-A-G is Pathogenic according to our data. Variant chr17-31227521-A-G is described in ClinVar as [Likely_pathogenic]. Clinvar id is 480183.Status of the report is criteria_provided_multiple_submitters_no_conflicts, 2 stars.

Neurofibromatosis, type 1 Pathogenic:2

Likely pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitter	clinical testing	Genome-Nilou Lab	Mar 15, 2022	- -
Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitter	clinical testing	Labcorp Genetics (formerly Invitae), Labcorp	Jan 15, 2024	This sequence change affects an acceptor splice site in intron 19 of the NF1 gene. It is expected to disrupt RNA splicing. Variants that disrupt the donor or acceptor splice site typically lead to a loss of protein function (PMID: 16199547), and loss-of-function variants in NF1 are known to be pathogenic (PMID: 10712197, 23913538). This variant is not present in population databases (gnomAD no frequency). Disruption of this splice site has been observed in individual(s) with neurofibromatosis type 1 (PMID: 12552569, 15146469). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 480183). Algorithms developed to predict the effect of sequence changes on RNA splicing suggest that this variant may disrupt the consensus splice site. For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. -

The c.2326-2A>G intronic pathogenic mutation results from an A to G substitution two nucleotides upstream from coding exon 20 in the NF1 gene. This alteration has been detected in an individual with a clinical diagnosis of neurofibromatosis type 1 (NF1) as well as a family history of NF1 (De Luca A et al. Hum. Mutat., 2003 Feb;21:171-2). In addition to the clinical data presented in the literature, 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. -
