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

Classification was made for transcript

Our verdict: Likely_benign. The variant received -6 ACMG points.

BP4
Computational evidence support a benign effect (BayesDel_noAF=-0.63).
BP6
Variant 17-31338143-C-T is Benign according to our data. Variant chr17-31338143-C-T is described in ClinVar as Conflicting_classifications_of_pathogenicity. ClinVar VariationId is 457806.
BS2
High AC in GnomAdExome4 at 26 AD gene. Variant has AC lower than other variant known as pathogenic in the gene, so the strength is limited to Supporting.

To our knowledge, this variant has only been published in conjunction with an adjacent base change, c.6756+3A>G, in which case the combined variant co-segregated with suspected NF1 (Griffiths, et a., 2007).; In-silico analysis, which includes splice predictors and evolutionary conservation, is inconclusive as to whether the variant alters gene splicing. In the absence of RNA/functional studies, the actual effect of this sequence change is unknown.; This variant is associated with the following publications: (PMID: 16944272)

Significance:Likely benign
Review Status:criteria provided, single submitter
Collection Method:clinical testing

This alteration is classified as likely benign based on a combination of the following: seen in unaffected individuals, population frequency, intact protein function, lack of segregation with disease, co-occurrence, RNA analysis, in silico models, amino acid conservation, lack of disease association in case-control studies, and/or the mechanism of disease or impacted region is inconsistent with a known cause of pathogenicity.

The splice region variant NM_000267.3(NF1):c.6756+4C>T has not been reported previously as a pathogenic variant, to our knowledge. The c.6756+4C>T variant is observed in 9/10,080 (0.0893%) alleles from individuals of gnomAD Ashkenazi Jewish background in gnomAD, which is greater than expected for the disorder. The c.6756+4C>T variant is not predicted to disrupt the existing donor splice site 2bp upstream by any splice site algorithm. The c.6756+4C>T variant results in a substitution of a base that is not predicted conserved by GERP++ and PhyloP. For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Likely Benign.
