Genes affected
NEFL (HGNC:7739): (neurofilament light chain) Neurofilaments are type IV intermediate filament heteropolymers composed of light, medium, and heavy chains. Neurofilaments comprise the axoskeleton and they functionally maintain the neuronal caliber. They may also play a role in intracellular transport to axons and dendrites. This gene encodes the light chain neurofilament protein. Mutations in this gene cause Charcot-Marie-Tooth disease types 1F (CMT1F) and 2E (CMT2E), disorders of the peripheral nervous system that are characterized by distinct neuropathies. A pseudogene has been identified on chromosome Y. [provided by RefSeq, Oct 2008]

Submissions by phenotype

Charcot-Marie-Tooth disease type 2E Pathogenic:1
Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingLabcorp Genetics (formerly Invitae), LabcorpOct 17, 2023This sequence change replaces glutamic acid, which is acidic and polar, with lysine, which is basic and polar, at codon 266 of the NEFL protein (p.Glu266Lys). This variant is present in population databases (no rsID available, gnomAD 0.0009%). This missense change has been observed in individual(s) with autosomal dominant NEFL-related conditions (Invitae). In at least one individual the variant was observed to be de novo. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 464928). Advanced modeling of protein sequence and biophysical properties (such as structural, functional, and spatial information, amino acid conservation, physicochemical variation, residue mobility, and thermodynamic stability) performed at Invitae indicates that this missense variant is expected to disrupt NEFL protein function. For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. -
Inborn genetic diseases Uncertain:1
Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingAmbry GeneticsNov 08, 2023The c.796G>A (p.E266K) alteration is located in exon 1 (coding exon 1) of the NEFL gene. This alteration results from a G to A substitution at nucleotide position 796, causing the glutamic acid (E) at amino acid position 266 to be replaced by a lysine (K). Based on insufficient or conflicting evidence, the clinical significance of this alteration remains unclear. -
not provided Uncertain:1
Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingGeneDxNov 10, 2019Not observed at a significant frequency in large population cohorts (Lek et al., 2016); In silico analysis, which includes protein predictors and evolutionary conservation, supports a deleterious effect; Has not been previously published as pathogenic or benign to our knowledge -
