Genes affected
NF2 (HGNC:7773): (NF2, moesin-ezrin-radixin like (MERLIN) tumor suppressor) This gene encodes a protein that is similar to some members of the ERM (ezrin, radixin, moesin) family of proteins that link cytoskeletal components with proteins in the cell membrane. The encoded protein is involved in regulation of contact-dependent inhibition of cell proliferation and functions in cell-cell adhesion and transmembrane signaling. The encoded protein has been shown to interact with cell-surface proteins, proteins involved in cytoskeletal dynamics, and proteins involved in regulating ion transport. Disruption of this protein's function has been implicated in tumorigenesis and metastasis. Mutations in this gene are associated with neurofibromatosis type II which is characterized by nervous system and skin tumors and ocular abnormalities. [provided by RefSeq, May 2022]

Neurofibromatosis, type 2 Uncertain:3
Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingInvitaeFeb 27, 2022This sequence change replaces alanine, which is neutral and non-polar, with valine, which is neutral and non-polar, at codon 238 of the NF2 protein (p.Ala238Val). This variant is present in population databases (rs761195572, gnomAD 0.0009%). This variant has not been reported in the literature in individuals affected with NF2-related conditions. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 578288). Algorithms developed to predict the effect of missense changes on protein structure and function are either unavailable or do not agree on the potential impact of this missense change (SIFT: "Deleterious"; PolyPhen-2: "Probably Damaging"; Align-GVGD: "Class C0"). In summary, the available evidence is currently insufficient to determine the role of this variant in disease. Therefore, it has been classified as a Variant of Uncertain Significance. -
Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingGenome-Nilou LabNov 07, 2021- -
Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingAll of Us Research Program, National Institutes of HealthNov 28, 2023This missense variant replaces alanine with valine at codon 238 of the NF2 protein. Computational prediction suggests that this variant may have deleterious impact on protein structure and function (internally defined REVEL score threshold >= 0.7, PMID: 27666373). To our knowledge, functional studies have not been reported for this variant. This variant has been reported in one individual affected with hepatocellular carcinoma (PMID: 22081132). This variant has been identified in 1/251472 chromosomes in the general population by the Genome Aggregation Database (gnomAD). The available evidence is insufficient to determine the role of this variant in disease conclusively. Therefore, this variant is classified as a Variant of Uncertain Significance. -

Hereditary cancer-predisposing syndrome Uncertain:1
Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingAmbry GeneticsJan 17, 2023The p.A238V variant (also known as c.713C>T), located in coding exon 8 of the NF2 gene, results from a C to T substitution at nucleotide position 713. The alanine at codon 238 is replaced by valine, an amino acid with similar properties. This alteration has been reported in an individual with hepatocellular carcinoma (Yoo NJ et al. Pathology, 2012 Jan;44:29-32). 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. -
