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]

Significance: Pathogenic

Review Status: criteria provided, single submitter

Collection Method: clinical testing

This sequence change affects a donor splice site in intron 29 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. 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 I (PMID: 17311297, 26740943). Studies have shown that disruption of this splice site results in skipping of exon 29 and introduces a premature termination codon (PMID: 17311297). The resulting mRNA is expected to undergo nonsense-mediated decay. For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. -

Significance: Pathogenic

Review Status: criteria provided, single submitter

Collection Method: clinical testing

The c.3974+2T>G intronic pathogenic mutation results from a T to G substitution two nucleotides after coding exon 29 in the NF1 gene. This alteration was detected in an individual with NF1 or clinical suspicion of NF1 (Bianchessi D et al. Mol Genet Genomic Med, 2015 Nov;3:513-25). Other alterations impacting the same donor site (c.3974+1G>C, c.3974+1G>A) have been described in multiple individuals with neurofibromatosis type 1 (Ambry internal data; Wimmer K et al. Hum. Mutat., 2007 Jun;28:599-612; Bianchessi D et al. Mol Genet Genomic Med, 2015 Nov;3:513-25). This variant is considered to be rare based on population cohorts in the Genome Aggregation Database (gnomAD). 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. 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. -
