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]

This sequence change creates a premature translational stop signal (p.Arg1276*) in the NF1 gene. It is expected to result in an absent or disrupted protein product. Loss-of-function variants in NF1 are known to be pathogenic (PMID: 10712197, 23913538). This variant is present in population databases (rs199474742, gnomAD 0.0009%). This premature translational stop signal has been observed in individuals with neurofibromatosis type 1 (PMID: 7655472, 10712197, 10862084, 11857752, 16944272, 23668869, 26056819). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 237556). For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. -

The observed stop gained variant c.3826C>T (p.Arg1276Ter) in NF1 gene has been reported in heterozygous state in multiple individuals affected with Neurofibromatosis Type 1 (Napolitano F et al. 2022; Zhang ZY et al. 2021; Mao B et al. 2018). Loss-of-function variants in NF1 are known to be pathogenic (Sabbagh A et al. 2013). The p.Arg1276Ter variant has allele frequency 0.0004% in gnomAD Exomes. This variant has been submitted to the ClinVar database as Pathogenic (multiple submitters). The nucleotide change c.3826C>T in NF1 is predicted as conserved by GERP++ and PhyloP across 100 vertebrates. This variant is predicted to cause loss of normal protein function through protein truncation. Loss of function variants have been previously reported to be disease causing. For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. -

The variant is observed at an extremely low frequency in the gnomAD v2.1.1 dataset (total allele frequency: <0.001%). Predicted Consequence/Location: Stop-gained (nonsense): predicted to result in a loss or disruption of normal protein function through nonsense-mediated decay (NMD) or protein truncation. Multiple pathogenic variants are reported downstream of the variant. The variant has been reported at least twice as pathogenic with clinical assertions and evidence for the classification (ClinVar ID: VCV000237556 /PMID: 7655472). Therefore, this variant is classified as Pathogenic according to the recommendation of ACMG/AMP guideline. -

Variant summary: NF1 c.3826C>T (p.Arg1276X) results in a premature termination codon, predicted to cause a truncation of the encoded protein or absence of the protein due to nonsense mediated decay, which are commonly known mechanisms for disease. Truncations downstream of this position have been classified as pathogenic by our laboratory. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 4e-06 in 251202 control chromosomes (gnomAD). c.3826C>T has been reported in the literature in multiple individuals affected with Neurofibromatosis Type 1 (Examples: Valero_2011, Nemethova_2013 and Mao_2018). These data indicate that the variant is very likely to be associated with disease. Fourteen submitters have submitted clinical-significance assessments for this variant to ClinVar after 2014 and all classified the variant as pathogenic. Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as pathogenic. -

The NF1 c.3826C>T; p.Arg1276Ter variant (rs199474742; ClinVar Variation ID: 237556) is reported in the literature in multiple individuals affected with neurofibromatosis type 1 (Fahsold 2000, Griffiths 2007, Kluwe 2002, Valero 2011). This variant is only observed on one allele in the Genome Aggregation Database (v2.1.1), indicating it is not a common polymorphism. This variant induces an early termination codon in exon 28 of 58 and is predicted to result in a truncated protein or mRNA subject to nonsense-mediated decay. Based on available information, this variant is considered to be pathogenic. References: Fahsold R et al.

The p.R1276* pathogenic mutation (also known as c.3826C>T) located in coding exon 28 of the NF1 gene, results from a C to T substitution at nucleotide position 3826. This changes the amino acid from an arginine to a stop codon within coding exon 28. This mutation was originally reported in a childwho had multiple cafe au lait spots, but did not fulfill NIH criteria for Neurofibromatosis type 1 (NF1) (Heim RA, et al.Hum. Mol. Genet. 1995;4(6):975-81).In another report, this mutation was identified in two unrelated individuals who met the NIH clinical criteria for NF1 (Valero MC, et al. J Mol Diagn 2011;13(2):113-22).In addition to the clinical data presented in the literature, since premature stop codons are typically deleterious in nature, this alteration is interpreted as a disease-causing mutation (ACMG Recommendations for Standards for Interpretation and Reporting of Sequence Variations. Revision 2007. Genet Med. 2008;10:294). -
