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

Classification was made for transcript

Our verdict: Benign. The variant received -10 ACMG points.

PVS1
Splicing +-2 bp (donor or acceptor) variant, product NOT destroyed by NMD, known LOF gene, truncates exone, which is 0.013732394 fraction of the gene. Cryptic splice site detected, with MaxEntScore 11, offset of 0 (no position change), new splice context is: ttttttttttttttttccAGaga. Cryptic site results in inframe change. If cryptic site found is not functional and variant results in exon loss, it results in inframe change.
BP6
Variant 17-31232069-T-TC is Benign according to our data. Variant chr17-31232069-T-TC is described in ClinVar as Benign/Likely_benign. ClinVar VariationId is 220995.Status of the report is criteria_provided_multiple_submitters_no_conflicts, 2 stars.
BS2
High AC in GnomAd4 at 90 AD gene.

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.

Significance:Likely benign
Review Status:criteria provided, single submitter
Collection Method:clinical testing

The splice region variant NM_000267.3(NF1):c.3198-3dupC has been reported to ClinVar as Benign/Likely benign with a status of (2 stars) criteria provided, multiple submitters, no conflicts (Variation ID 220995 as of 2025-10-02). Although the variant is present at 0.0058% in gnomAD, it has the flag "RF" and may not represent the true population frequency. The c.3198-3dupC variant is not predicted to disrupt the existing acceptor splice site 1bp upstream by any splice site algorithm. For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Likely Benign.
