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 Uncertain_significance. Variant got 1 ACMG points.

• PP2: Missense variant in the NF1 gene, where missense mutations are typically associated with disease (based on misZ statistic). The gene has 399 curated pathogenic missense variants (we use a threshold of 10). The gene has 143 curated benign missense variants. Gene score misZ: 6.5427 (above the threshold of 3.09). Trascript score misZ: 8.4054 (above the threshold of 3.09). 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, 0.857
• BP6: Variant 17-31327743-C-G is Benign according to our data. Variant chr17-31327743-C-G is described in ClinVar as [Conflicting_classifications_of_pathogenicity]. Clinvar id is 142804.We mark this variant Likely_benign, oryginal submissions are: {Uncertain_significance=12, Likely_benign=4}. Variant chr17-31327743-C-G is described in Lovd as [Benign].
• BS2: High AC in GnomAd4 at 14 AD gene. Variant has AC lower than other variant known as pathogenic in the gene, so the strength is limited to Supporting.

The NF1 c.5450C>G (p.Ser1817Cys) missense change has a maximum subpopulation frequency of 0.02% in gnomAD v2.1.1 (https://gnomad.broadinstitute.org/). The in silico tool REVEL predicts a deleterious effect on protein function, but to our knowledge this prediction has not been confirmed by functional studies. This variant has been reported in an individual with Neurofibromatosis Type 1 (PMID: 27322474). In summary, the evidence currently available is insufficient to determine the clinical significance of this variant. It has therefore been classified as of uncertain significance. -

Significance: Uncertain significance

Review Status: criteria provided, single submitter

Collection Method: clinical testing

This variant was observed in the ICSL laboratory as part of a predisposition screen in an ostensibly healthy population. It had not been previously curated by ICSL or reported in the Human Gene Mutation Database (HGMD: prior to June 1st, 2018), and was therefore a candidate for classification through an automated scoring system. Utilizing variant allele frequency, disease prevalence and penetrance estimates, and inheritance mode, an automated score was calculated to assess if this variant is too frequent to cause the disease. Based on the score, this variant could not be ruled out of causing disease and therefore its association with disease required further investigation. A literature search was performed for the gene, cDNA change, and amino acid change (if applicable). No publications were found based on this search. This variant was therefore classified as a variant of unknown significance for this disease. -

The p.S1838C variant (also known as c.5513C>G), located in coding exon 38 of the NF1 gene, results from a C to G substitution at nucleotide position 5513. The serine at codon 1838 is replaced by cysteine, an amino acid with dissimilar properties. This variant was previously reported in the SNPDatabase as rs368654378. Based on data from the NHLBI Exome Sequencing Project (ESP), the G allele has an overall frequency of approximately 0.01% (1/13006) total alleles studied, having been observed in 0.01% (1/8600) European American alleles.<span style="background-color:initial">To date, this alteration has been detected with an allele frequency of approximately 0.01% (greater than 110000 alleles tested) in our clinical cohort. 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 p.S1838C remains unclear. -

Significance: Likely benign

Review Status: criteria provided, single submitter

Collection Method: clinical testing

This variant was observed in the ICSL laboratory as part of a predisposition screen in an ostensibly healthy population. It had not been previously curated by ICSL or reported in the Human Gene Mutation Database (HGMD: prior to June 1st, 2018), and was therefore a candidate for classification through an automated scoring system. Utilizing variant allele frequency, disease prevalence and penetrance estimates, and inheritance mode, an automated score was calculated to assess if this variant is too frequent to cause the disease. Based on the score and internal cut-off values, a variant classified as likely benign is not then subjected to further curation. The score for this variant resulted in a classification of likely benign for this disease. -

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. -
