Genes affected
NEFH (HGNC:7737): (neurofilament heavy chain) Neurofilaments are type IV intermediate filament heteropolymers composed of light, medium, and heavy chains. Neurofilaments comprise the axoskeleton and functionally maintain neuronal caliber. They may also play a role in intracellular transport to axons and dendrites. This gene encodes the heavy neurofilament protein. This protein is commonly used as a biomarker of neuronal damage and susceptibility to amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) has been associated with mutations in this gene.

Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingLabcorp Genetics (formerly Invitae), LabcorpJul 16, 2021In 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. Advanced modeling of protein sequence and biophysical properties (such as structural, functional, and spatial information, amino acid conservation, physicochemical variation, residue mobility, and thermodynamic stability) performed at Invitae indicates that this missense variant is not expected to disrupt NEFH protein function. This variant has not been reported in the literature in individuals affected with NEFH-related conditions. While this variant is present in population databases (rs748355993), the frequency information is unreliable, as metrics indicate poor data quality at this position in the ExAC database. This sequence change replaces alanine with valine at codon 13 of the NEFH protein (p.Ala13Val). The alanine residue is highly conserved and there is a small physicochemical difference between alanine and valine. -
