Neurofibromatosis, type 1 Pathogenic:20
This sequence change creates a premature translational stop signal (p.Arg1513*) in the NF1 gene. It is expected to result in an absent or disrupted protein product. Loss-of-function variants in NF1 are known to be pathogenic (PMID: 10712197, 23913538). This variant is present in population databases (rs760703505, gnomAD 0.003%). This premature translational stop signal has been observed in individual(s) with neurofibromatosis type 1 (PMID: 9180088, 10712197, 16479075, 21354044, 23668869, 26969325). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 220152). 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.
We report the c.4537C>T (p.Arg1513*) in our family study because this variant it's associated with pheochromocytoma and GIST tumor

Variant summary: NF1 c.4537C>T (p.Arg1513X) results in a premature termination codon, predicted to cause a truncation of the encoded protein or absence of the protein due to nonsense mediated decay, which are commonly known mechanisms for disease. Truncations downstream of this position have been classified as pathogenic by our laboratory. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 8e-06 in 251346 control chromosomes (gnomAD). The variant, c.4537C>T, had been reported as a recurring pathogenic variant in several individuals affected with Neurofibromatosis Type 1 (e.g. Side_1997, Frayling_2019, Yao_2019). Eight clinical diagnostic laboratories have submitted clinical-significance assessments for this variant to ClinVar after 2014, and all of them classified the variant as pathogenic. Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as pathogenic.
The NF1 c.4600C>T (p.Arg1534Ter) variant, also published as NF1 c.4537C>T, was identified at an allelic fraction consistent with somatic origin. This variant has been reported in numerous individuals affected with neurofibromatosis type 1 (Chai et al., PMID 31533651; Ko et al., PMID: 23668869; Yao et al., PMID 31717729; Giuliano et al, PMID 31370276). NF1 c.4600C>T (p.Arg1534Ter) has been reported in the ClinVar database as pathogenic/likely pathogenic by 22 submitters (ClinVar ID 220152). This variant is only observed on 1/152116 alleles in the general population (gnomAD v.2.1.1), indicating it is not a common variant. This variant leads to a premature termination codon, which is predicted to result in nonsense mediated decay and loss of function is the known disease mechanism. Based on an internally-developed protocol informed by the ACMG/AMP guidelines (Richards S et al., PMID: 25741868) and and gene-specific practices from the ClinGen Criteria Specification Registry, the NF1 c.4600C>T (p.Arg1534Ter) variant is classified as pathogenic.
The stop gained c.4600C>T (p.Arg1534Ter) variant in the NF1 gene has been been reported as a recurring pathogenic variant in several individuals affected with Neurofibromatosis Type 1 (Yao et al., 2019; Ko JM et al., 2013). This variant is reported with the allele frequency 0.0007% in the gnomAD and novel in 1000 genome database. This variant has been reported to the ClinVar database as Likely Pathogenic/ Pathogenic (multiple submissions). The nucleotide change c.4600C>T in NF1 is predicted as conserved by GERP++ and PhyloP across 100 vertebrates. Loss of function variants have been previously reported to be disease causing. For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic.
PVS1_very strong;PS4_supporting
Absent from controls (or at extremely low frequency if recessive) in Genome Aggregation Database, Exome Sequencing Project, 1000 Genomes Project, or Exome Aggregation Consortium.;Null variant in a gene where loss of function (LOF) is a known mechanism of disease.;The prevalence of the variant in affected individuals is significantly increased compared to the prevalence in controls.;Patient's phenotype or family history is highly specific for a disease with a single genetic etiology.;Assumed de novo, but without confirmation of paternity and maternity.
Criteria applied: PVS1,PS4,PM2_SUP,PP4
The variant is observed at an extremely low frequency in the gnomAD v4.0.0 dataset (total allele frequency: <0.001%). Predicted Consequence/Location: Stop-gained (nonsense): predicted to result in a loss or disruption of normal protein function through nonsense-mediated decay (NMD) or protein truncation. Multiple pathogenic variants are reported downstream of the variant. The variant has been reported at least twice as pathogenic with clinical assertions and evidence for the classification (ClinVar ID: VCV000220152 /PMID: 9180088 /3billion dataset). Therefore, this variant is classified as Pathogenic according to the recommendation of ACMG/AMP guideline.

The NF1 c.4537C>T (p.Arg1513*) variant causes the premature termination of NF1 protein synthesis. This variant has been reported in the published literature in individuals with neurofibromatosis 1 (NF1) (PMIDs: 34427956 (2022), 31533651 (2019), 26969325 (2016), 17914445 (2008), 17209131 (2007), 14722917 (2004)), leukemia (PMID: 9180088 (1997)), and breast cancer (PMID: 30530636 (2019)). The frequency of this variant in the general population, 0.000008 (2/251346 chromosomes (Genome Aggregation Database, http://gnomad.broadinstitute.org)), is consistent with pathogenicity. Based on the available information, this variant is classified as pathogenic.
Nonsense variant predicted to result in protein truncation or nonsense mediated decay in a gene for which loss-of-function is a known mechanism of disease; This variant is associated with the following publications: (PMID: 10862084, 29957862, 16941471, 21354044, 18041031, 12552569, 17209131, 24676424, 22155606, 24789688, 27838393, 31717729, 31533797, 34427956, 31980526, 17914445, 10607834, 9180088, 25525159, 14517963, 23668869, 24932921, 29506128, 30530636, 10712197, 16479075, 26969325, 15060124, 15146469, 20687928, 31730495, 31533651, 31370276, 29625052, 32005694, 34426522, 34055682, 31776437, 33344560, 31783133)
The NF1 c.4600C>T; p.Arg1534Ter variant (rs760703505), also known as c.4537C>T; p.Arg1513Ter, is reported in the medical literature in several individuals affected with neurofibromatosis type 1 (Fahsold 2000, Hutter 2016, Jeong 2006, Ko 2013, Side 1997, Valero 2011). This variant is reported as pathogenic by multiple laboratories in ClinVar (Variation ID: 220152), and only observed on two alleles in the Genome Aggregation Database (v.2.1.1), indicating it is not a common polymorphism. This variant induces an early termination codon and is predicted to result in a truncated protein or mRNA subject to nonsense-mediated decay. Based on available information, this variant is considered to be pathogenic. References: Fahsold R et al.

The p.R1534* pathogenic mutation (also known as c.4600C>T), located in coding exon 35 of the NF1 gene, results from a C to T substitution at nucleotide position 4600. This changes the amino acid from an arginine to a stop codon within coding exon 35. This mutation has been observed in multiple neurofibromatosis type 1 (NF1) families,<span style="background-color:initial">including one family in which the mutation segregated with NF1 in a proband diagnosed with juvenile myelomonocytic leukemia at 14 months and his affected mother (<span style="background-color:initial">Ko JMet al.

In addition to the clinical information presented in the literature, since premature stop codons are typically deleterious in nature, this alteration is interpreted as a disease-causing mutation (ACMG Recommendations for Standards for Interpretation and Reporting of Sequence Variations.
