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]

Significance: Pathogenic

Review Status: criteria provided, single submitter

Collection Method: clinical testing

This sequence change affects a donor splice site in intron 45 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 neurofibromatosis type 1 (PMID: 17311297, 31370276). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 547687). 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. -

The c.6858+1G>T intronic pathogenic mutation results from a G to T substitution one nucleotide after coding exon 45 of the NF1 gene. The variant has been detected in multiple individuals with a clinical or suspected diagnosis of neurofibromatosis type 1 (Wimmer K et al. Hum Mutat, 2007 Jun;28:599-612; Ambry internal data). This variant was not reported in population-based cohorts in the Genome Aggregation Database (gnomAD). Alterations that disrupt the canonical splice site are expected to result in aberrant splicing. In silico splice site analysis predicts that this alteration will weaken the native splice donor site. RNA studies have demonstrated that this alteration results in a transcript predicted to lead to a protein with an in-frame deletion of 34 amino acids; the region predicted to be impacted is critical for protein function (Wimmer K et al. Hum Mutat, 2007 Jun;28:599-612; Ambry internal data). Based on the majority of available evidence to date, this variant is likely to be pathogenic. -
