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 an acceptor splice site in intron 41 of the NF1 gene. It is expected to disrupt RNA splicing. Variants that disrupt the donor or acceptor splice site typically lead to a loss of protein function (PMID: 16199547), and 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). Disruption of this splice site has been observed in individual(s) with clinical features of neurofibromatosis type 1 (PMID: 16740526, 26178382). In at least one individual the variant was observed to be de novo. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 404510). 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. -

Collection Method: clinical testing

The NF1 c.6428-2A>G variant (rs1060500312) is reported in the literature in several individuals affected with neurofibromatosis type 1, including at least one individual in which the variant occurred de novo (Altarescu 2006, Rojnueangnit 2015). This variant is absent from general population databases (Exome Variant Server, Genome Aggregation Database), indicating it is not a common polymorphism. This variant abolishes the canonical splice acceptor site of intron 42, which is likely to disrupt gene function. Based on available information, this variant is considered to be pathogenic.

Significance: Likely pathogenic

Review Status: criteria provided, single submitter

Collection Method: clinical testing

The c.6365-2A>G intronic variant results from an A to G substitution two nucleotides upstream from coding exon 42 in the NF1 gene. This alteration has been reported in one individual with features of NF1-related disease (Rojnueangnit K et al. Hum Mutat 2015 Nov;36(11):1052-63). In silico splice site analysis predicts that this alteration will weaken the native splice acceptor site; however, direct evidence is insufficient at this time (Ambry internal data). This nucleotide position is highly conserved in available vertebrate species. This variant is considered to be rare based on population cohorts in the Genome Aggregation Database (gnomAD). Based on the majority of available evidence to date, this variant is likely to be pathogenic. -
