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]

This missense variant replaces leucine with tryptophan at codon 316 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). A functional study has reported that this variant does not impact interaction with HEI10, a cell cycle regulator, in a yeast two-hybrid assay (PMID: 16532029). This variant has been reported in an individual affected with bilateral vestibular schwannomas (PMID: 16983642). This variant has been identified in 8/282878 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. -

An NF2 c.947T>G (p.Leu316Trp) variant was identified at a near heterozygous allelic fraction of 49.5%, a frequency which may be consistent with germline origin. This variant has been reported in the literature in a germline state in an individual with bilateral vestibular schwannomas (Ahronowitz I et al., PMID: 16983642) and in two Brazilian individuals with breast cancer (Guindalini RSC et al., PMID: 35264596). It has been reported in the ClinVar database as a germline variant of uncertain significance by four submitters, likely benign by one submitter and benign by one submitter (ClinVar Variation ID: 380975). The NF2 c.947T>G (p.Leu316Trp) variant is observed on 44/1,613,858 alleles in the general population (gnomAD v.4.1.0). Functional studies performed did not indicate a difference in binding with the p.Leu316Trp variant (Grönholm M et al., PMID: 16532029). Computational predictors indicate that the variant is damaging, evidence that correlates with impact to NF2 function. Due to conflicting information, and based on ACMG/AMP guidelines for variant interpretation (Richards S et al., PMID: 25741868), the clinical significance of this variant is uncertain at this time. -

Variant summary: NF2 c.947T>G (p.Leu316Trp) results in a non-conservative amino acid change in the encoded protein sequence. Five of five in-silico tools predict a damaging effect of the variant on protein function. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 2.7e-05 in 1613858 control chromosomes. The observed variant frequency is approximately 2.7-fold of the estimated maximal expected allele frequency for a pathogenic variant in NF2 causing Neurofibromatosis, type 2 phenotype (1e-05), suggesting the variant may be benign. c.947T>G has been reported in the literature in at least one individual affected with Neurofibromatosis, type 2 and one individual affected with breast cancer, both without evidence of causality (e.g. Ahronowitz_2007, Guindalini_2022). These reports do not provide unequivocal conclusions about association of the variant with Neurofibromatosis, type 2. Two publications report experimental evidence evaluating an impact on protein function, showing the variant does not impair binding with targeted proteins involved in cell-cycle regulation or growth supression, however, additional evidence is needed to determine the role of these interactions in disease (e.g. Gronholm_2006, Roehrig_2021). The following publications have been ascertained in the context of this evaluation (PMID: 16983642, 16532029, 35264596, 34424918). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 380975). Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as likely benign. -

Significance: Likely benign
Review Status: criteria provided, single submitter

This variant is considered likely benign or benign based on one or more of the following: it is predicted to be benign by multiple in silico algorithms, and/or has population frequency not consistent with disease, and/or has normal protein function, and/or has lack of segregation with disease, and/or has been detected in co-occurrence with known pathogenic variant, and/or has lack of disease association in case-control studies, and/or is located in a region inconsistent with a known cause of pathogenicity. -

This alteration is classified as 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. -
