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

Verdict is Likely_pathogenic. Variant got 8 ACMG points.

GenCC associations: The gene is linked to neurofibromatosis, familial spinal, hereditary pheochromocytoma-paraganglioma, neurofibromatosis type 1, Watson syndrome, neurofibromatosis-Noonan syndrome, Moyamoya disease, familial ovarian cancer.
• PP3: MetaRNN computational evidence supports a deleterious effect, 0.925
• PP5: Variant 17-31259081-T-G is Pathogenic according to our data. Variant chr17-31259081-T-G is described in ClinVar as [Conflicting_classifications_of_pathogenicity].

This sequence change replaces methionine, which is neutral and non-polar, with arginine, which is basic and polar, at codon 1440 of the NF1 protein (p.Met1440Arg). This variant is not present in population databases (gnomAD no frequency). This missense change has been observed in individual(s) with NF1-related conditions (PMID: 21520333). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 837385). Invitae Evidence Modeling of protein sequence and biophysical properties (such as structural, functional, and spatial information, amino acid conservation, physicochemical variation, residue mobility, and thermodynamic stability) indicates that this missense variant is expected to disrupt NF1 protein function with a positive predictive value of 95%. This variant disrupts the p.Met1440 amino acid residue in NF1. Other variant(s) that disrupt this residue have been determined to be pathogenic (PMID: 24789688, 25074460, 28961165; internal data). This suggests that this residue is clinically significant, and that variants that disrupt this residue are likely to be disease-causing. In summary, the currently available evidence indicates that the variant is pathogenic, but additional data are needed to prove that conclusively. Therefore, this variant has been classified as Likely Pathogenic. -

The NF1 c.4382T>G variant is predicted to result in the amino acid substitution p.Met1461Arg. This variant is also referred to as c.4319T>G (p.Met1440Arg) in an alternate transcript (NM_000267). To our knowledge, this variant has not been reported in the literature. However, different missense variants affecting this amino acid (referred to as p.Met1440Val, p.Met1440Thr, p.Met1440Lys) have been reported in multiple individuals affected with NF1-related disease (Xu et al. 2014. PubMed ID: 24789688; Bonatti et al. 2017. PubMed ID: 28961165; Pasmant et al. 2015. PubMed ID: 25074460). This variant has not been reported in a large population database (http://gnomad.broadinstitute.org), indicating this variant is rare. In ClinVar, this variant has been interpreted as likely pathogenic (https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/clinvar/variation/837385/). Although we suspect that this variant may be pathogenic, at this time, the clinical significance of this variant is uncertain due to the absence of conclusive functional and genetic evidence. -

Significance: Uncertain significance

Review Status: criteria provided, single submitter

Collection Method: clinical testing

The p.M1440R variant (also known as c.4319T>G), located in coding exon 32 of the NF1 gene, results from a T to G substitution at nucleotide position 4319. The methionine at codon 1440 is replaced by arginine, an amino acid with similar properties. This amino acid position is highly conserved in available vertebrate species. In addition, this alteration is predicted to be deleterious by in silico analysis. Since supporting evidence is limited at this time, the clinical significance of this alteration remains unclear. -
