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]

Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingLabcorp Genetics (formerly Invitae), LabcorpJan 29, 2024This sequence change creates a premature translational stop signal (p.Leu537Tyrfs*7) in the NEXN gene. While this is not anticipated to result in nonsense mediated decay, it is expected to disrupt the last 139 amino acid(s) of the NEXN protein. This variant is present in population databases (rs779350415, gnomAD 0.0009%). This premature translational stop signal has been observed in individual(s) with left ventricular noncompaction (PMID: 33500567). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 283614). Experimental studies and prediction algorithms are not available or were not evaluated, and the functional significance of this variant is currently unknown. In summary, the available evidence is currently insufficient to determine the role of this variant in disease. Therefore, it has been classified as a Variant of Uncertain Significance. -

Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingLaboratory for Molecular Medicine, Mass General Brigham Personalized MedicineJul 28, 2016Variant classified as Uncertain Significance - Favor Pathogenic. The p.Leu537fs variant in NEXN has not been previously reported in individuals with cardiomyopa thy, but has been identified in 1/66208 European chromosomes by the Exome Aggreg ation Consortium (ExAC, http://exac.broadinstitute.org; dbSNP rs779350415). This variant is predicted to cause a frameshift, which alters the protein?s amino ac id sequence beginning at position 537 and leads to a premature termination codon 7 amino acids downstream. Although the severe nature of this change increases t he likelihood that the variant is pathogenic, the NEXN gene has not been widely studied and the spectrum of variants leading to disease is not well-defined. Los s of NEXN function has been shown to cause DCM in zebrafish; however, it remains unclear if one or both copies of the gene need to be affected to cause disease (Hassel 2009, Wang 2010). In summary, while there is some suspicion for a pathog enic role, the clinical significance of the p.Leu537fs variant is uncertain. -
