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]

ACMG classification

Verdict is Pathogenic. Variant got 12 ACMG points.

• PVS1: Splicing +-2 bp (donor or acceptor) variant, product NOT destroyed by NMD, known LOF gene, truncates exone, which is 0.020422535 fraction of the gene. Cryptic splice site detected, with MaxEntScore 3.6, offset of 17, new splice context is: tataagttatttctggacAGtct. Cryptic site results in frameshift change. If cryptic site found is not functional and variant results in exon loss, it results in inframe change.
• PM2: Very rare variant in population databases, with high coverage
• PP5: Variant 17-31200421-G-T is Pathogenic according to our data. Variant chr17-31200421-G-T is described in ClinVar as [Likely_pathogenic]. Clinvar id is 141131.Status of the report is criteria_provided_multiple_submitters_no_conflicts, 2 stars.

Significance: Pathogenic

Review Status: criteria provided, single submitter

For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. Algorithms developed to predict the effect of sequence changes on RNA splicing suggest that this variant may disrupt the consensus splice site. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 141131). Disruption of this splice site has been observed in individuals with clinical features of neurofibromatosis type 1 (PMID: 10076878, 30308447). This variant is not present in population databases (gnomAD no frequency). This sequence change affects an acceptor splice site in intron 8 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). -

The c.889-1G>T intronic variant results from a G to T substitution one nucleotide before coding exon 9 of the NF1 gene. This alteration has not been reported in published literature to date; however, a different alteration at the same nucleotide position, c.889-1G>C, was previously reported in an NF1 patient (Baralle D and Baralle M J. Med. Genet. 2005; 42:737-48). This variant was not reported in population-based cohorts in the following databases: Database of Single Nucleotide Polymorphisms (dbSNP), NHLBI Exome Sequencing Project (ESP) and 1000 Genomes Project. Based on nucleotide sequence alignment, this position is highly conserved in available vertebrate species. Using the BDGP splice site prediction tool, this alteration is predicted to abolish the native acceptor splice site; however, direct evidence is unavailable. Alterations that disrupt the canonical splice acceptor site are typically deleterious in nature (ACMG Recommendations for Standards for Interpretation and Reporting of Sequence Variations. Revision 2007. Genet Med. 2008;10:294). As such, the c.889-1G>T variant is classified as likely pathogenic. -
