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.Arg2429*) 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 not present in population databases (gnomAD no frequency). This premature translational stop signal has been observed in individual(s) with neurofibromatosis type 1 (PMID: 10712197, 16835897, 16944272, 25074460). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 185789). For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic.

A known stopgain variant, c.7348C>T in exon 50 of NF1 (Wu-Chou YH, et al., 2018; ClinVar accession ID: VCV000185789.40) was observed in a heterozygous state in the proband. Segregation analysis by Sanger sequencing showed that this variant was present in heterozygous state in the proband, affected mother and brother but absent in the father. This variant is observed in an individual in heterozygous state in gnomAD (v4.1.0) population database and absent in our in-house data of 3748 exomes. The variant c.7348C>T likely introduces a premature termination codon, which may either result in a formation of truncated protein product or cause the transcript to undergo nonsense-medicated mRNA decay

The NF1 c.7348C>T; p.Arg2450Ter variant (rs786202457) is reported in the literature in multiple individuals affected with neurofibromatosis type I (Fahsold 2000, Griffiths 2007, Lee 2006). This variant is reported as pathogenic by multiple laboratories in ClinVar (Variation ID: 185789), and is absent from general population databases (1000 Genomes Project, Exome Variant Server, Genome Aggregation Database), indicating it is not a common polymorphism. The variant induces an early termination codon, and is predicted to result in a truncated protein or mRNA subject to nonsense-mediated decay. Based on available information, the p.Arg2450Ter variant is considered to be pathogenic. References: Fahsold R et al.

The NF1 c.7348C>T variant is predicted to result in premature protein termination (p.Arg2450*). This variant is alternatively referred to as c.7285C>T (p.Arg2429*) using the primary transcript NM_000267. This variant has been reported in multiple individuals with neurofibromatosis type I (Fahsold et al. 2000. PubMed ID: 10712197; Lee et al. 2006. PubMed ID: 16835897; Griffiths et al. 2007. PubMed ID: 16944272). At PreventionGenetics, we previously identified this variant in other affected patients. To our knowledge, this variant has not been reported in in a large population database (http://gnomad.broadinstitute.org), indicating this variant is rare. This variant is interpreted as pathogenic in ClinVar (https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/clinvar/variation/185789/). Nonsense variants in NF1 are expected to be pathogenic. This variant is interpreted as pathogenic.

The p.R2450* pathogenic mutation (also known as c.7348C>T) located in coding exon 50 of the NF1 gene, results from a C to T substitution at nucleotide position 7348. This changes the amino acid from an arginine to a stop codon within coding exon 50. 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).
