Genes affected
NEXN (HGNC:29557): (nexilin F-actin binding protein) This gene encodes a filamentous actin-binding protein that may function in cell adhesion and migration. Mutations in this gene have been associated with dilated cardiomyopathy, also known as CMD1CC. Alternatively spliced transcript variants have been described.[provided by RefSeq, Feb 2010]

Submissions by phenotype

Cardiovascular phenotype Uncertain:1
Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingAmbry GeneticsJun 09, 2023The c.25_27+2delGAGGT variant results from a deletion of 5 nucleotides between positions 25 and 27+2 and involves the canonical splice donor site after coding exon 1 of the NEXN gene. This variant is considered to be rare based on population cohorts in the Genome Aggregation Database (gnomAD). The canonical splice donor site is highly conserved in available vertebrate species. In silico splice site analysis predicts that this alteration will weaken the native splice donor site. Alterations that disrupt the canonical splice site are expected to cause aberrant splicing, resulting in an abnormal protein or a transcript that is subject to nonsense-mediated mRNA decay. Although biallelic loss of function alterations in NEXN have been associated with autosomal recessive NEXN-related cardiomyopathy, haploinsufficiency for NEXN has not been clearly established as a mechanism of disease for autosomal dominant NEXN-related cardiomyopathy. Since supporting evidence is limited at this time, the clinical significance of this alteration remains unclear. -
