The NM_001042492.3(NF1):​c.4330A>C​(p.Lys1444Gln) variant causes a missense, splice region change involving the alteration of a conserved nucleotide. The variant was absent in control chromosomes in GnomAD project. In-silico tool predicts a pathogenic outcome for this variant. 2/3 splice prediction tools predict no significant impact on normal splicing. 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. K1444E) has been classified as 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]

This sequence change replaces lysine, which is basic and polar, with glutamine, which is neutral and polar, at codon 1423 of the NF1 protein (p.Lys1423Gln). This variant is not present in population databases (gnomAD no frequency). This missense change has been observed in individual(s) with NF1-related conditions (PMID: 31595648). In at least one individual the variant was observed to be de novo. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 431637). An algorithm developed to predict the effect of missense changes on protein structure and function (PolyPhen-2) suggests that this variant is likely to be disruptive. Experimental studies have shown that this missense change affects NF1 function (PMID: 8264648). This variant disrupts the p.Lys1423 amino acid residue in NF1. Other variant(s) that disrupt this residue have been determined to be pathogenic (PMID: 1568247, 11857752, 16380919, 16786508, 22807134, 23244495, 27322474). This suggests that this residue is clinically significant, and that variants that disrupt this residue are likely to be disease-causing. For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. -

Published functional studies demonstrate a damaging effect: decreased GAP activity and affinity for Ras and reduced ability of neurofibromin to associate with microtubules (Xu and Gutmann, 1997; Poullet et al., 1994); Not observed at significant frequency in large population cohorts (gnomAD); In silico analysis supports that this missense variant has a deleterious effect on protein structure/function; This variant is associated with the following publications: (PMID: 31066482, 23656349, 27716896, 29290338, 9219873, 25486365, 22807134, 8264648, 34080803, 31595648) -

The p.K1423Q pathogenic mutation (also known as c.4267A>C), located in coding exon 31 of the NF1 gene, results from an A to C substitution at nucleotide position 4267. The lysine at codon 1423 is replaced by glutamine, an amino acid with similar properties. This alteration has been identified in multiple individuals with a clinical diagnosis of neurofibromatosis type 1 (Koczkowska M et al. Hum Mutat, 2020 01;41:299-315). This amino acid position is highly conserved in available vertebrate species. In addition, this alteration is predicted to be deleterious by in silico analysis. This variant is considered to be rare based on population cohorts in the Genome Aggregation Database (gnomAD). As such, this alteration is interpreted as a disease-causing mutation. -
