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 Pathogenic. Variant got 18 ACMG points.

• PVS1: Loss of function variant, product undergoes nonsense mediated mRNA decay. LoF is a known mechanism of disease.
• PM2: Very rare variant in population databases, with high coverage
• PP5: Variant 17-31261768-C-G is Pathogenic according to our data. Variant chr17-31261768-C-G is described in ClinVar as [Pathogenic]. Clinvar id is 547647.Status of the report is criteria_provided_multiple_submitters_no_conflicts, 2 stars. Variant chr17-31261768-C-G is described in Lovd as [Pathogenic].

For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. This sequence change creates a premature translational stop signal (p.Tyr1524*) 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 not present in population databases (gnomAD no frequency). This premature translational stop signal has been observed in individuals with neurofibromatosis type 1 (PMID: 23913538). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 547647). Algorithms developed to predict the effect of sequence changes on RNA splicing suggest that this variant may disrupt the consensus splice site. -

The Y1524X nonsense variant has been reported previously in association with neurofibromatosis type 1 (Sabbagh et al., 2013). This variant is predicted to cause loss of normal protein function either through protein truncation or nonsense-mediated mRNA decay. The variant is not observed in large population cohorts (Lek et al., 2016). We interpret this variant as pathogenic. -
