Variant summary

Our verdict is Pathogenic. Variant got 17 ACMG points: 17P and 0B. PM2 PM5 PP2 PP3_Strong PP5_Very_Strong

The ENST00000487476.5(NF1):​c.1642G>A​(p.Val548Ile) variant causes a missense change involving the alteration of a conserved nucleotide. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 0.000000685 in 1,460,416 control chromosomes in the GnomAD database, with no homozygous occurrence. In-silico tool predicts a pathogenic outcome for this variant. 8/13 in silico tools predict a damaging outcome for this variant. Variant has been reported in ClinVar as Likely pathogenic (★★). Another variant affecting the same amino acid position, but resulting in a different missense (i.e. V548A) has been classified as Likely pathogenic.

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 Pathogenic. Variant got 17 ACMG points.

• PM2: Very rare variant in population databases, with high coverage
• PM5: Other missense variant is known to change same aminoacid residue: Variant chr17-31219120-T-C is described in ClinVar as [Likely_pathogenic]. Clinvar id is 547598.Status of the report is criteria_provided_multiple_submitters_no_conflicts, 2 stars.
• 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: 3.7538 (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: Splicing scoreres supports a deletorius effect: Scorers claiming Pathogenic: dbscSNV1_ADA, dbscSNV1_RF, max_spliceai. No scorers claiming Uncertain. No scorers claiming Benign.
• PP5: Variant 17-31219119-G-A is Pathogenic according to our data. Variant chr17-31219119-G-A is described in ClinVar as [Likely_pathogenic]. Clinvar id is 457539.Status of the report is criteria_provided_multiple_submitters_no_conflicts, 2 stars. Variant chr17-31219119-G-A is described in Lovd as [Pathogenic].

Significance: Pathogenic

Review Status: criteria provided, single submitter

Collection Method: clinical testing

This sequence change affects a donor splice site in intron 14 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: 10712197, 30308447; Invitae). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 457539). 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. -
