Variant summary: NF1 c.3709-8G>C alters a non-conserved nucleotide located close to a canonical splice site and therefore could affect mRNA splicing, leading to a significantly altered protein sequence. Consensus agreement among computation tools predict no significant impact on normal splicing. However, these predictions have yet to be confirmed by functional studies. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 6.8e-05 in 251264 control chromosomes, predominantly at a frequency of 0.00049 within the Latino subpopulation in the gnomAD database. The observed variant frequency within Latino control individuals in the gnomAD database is approximately 2.35 fold of the estimated maximal expected allele frequency for a pathogenic variant in NF1 causing Neurofibromatosis Type 1 phenotype (0.00021). To our knowledge, no occurrence of c.3709-8G>C in individuals affected with Neurofibromatosis Type 1 and no experimental evidence demonstrating its impact on protein function have been reported. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 412996). Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as benign. -
