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 12 ACMG points.

• PVS1: Splicing +-2 bp (donor or acceptor) variant, LoF is a know mechanism of disease, No cryptic splice site detected. Exon removal results in frameshift change.
• PM2: Very rare variant in population databases, with high coverage
• PP5: Variant 17-31226686-T-C is Pathogenic according to our data. Variant chr17-31226686-T-C is described in ClinVar as [Pathogenic]. Clinvar id is 2921216.Status of the report is criteria_provided_single_submitter, 1 stars. Variant chr17-31226686-T-C is described in Lovd as [Pathogenic].

The NF1 c.2251+2T>C variant, also published as IVS13+2T>C, is reported in the literature in several individuals affected with neurofibromatosis type 1 (Pros 2008, Serra 2001). This variant is absent from general population databases (Exome Variant Server, Genome Aggregation Database), indicating it is not a common polymorphism. This variant disrupts the canonical splice donor site of intron 18 (also published as intron 13), which is likely to negatively impact gene function. Indeed, cDNA analysis in patient fibroblasts suggests this variants results in exon skipping and a frameshift (Pros 2008). Based on available information, this variant is considered to be pathogenic.
