Genes affected
NF2 (HGNC:7773): (NF2, moesin-ezrin-radixin like (MERLIN) tumor suppressor) This gene encodes a protein that is similar to some members of the ERM (ezrin, radixin, moesin) family of proteins that link cytoskeletal components with proteins in the cell membrane. The encoded protein is involved in regulation of contact-dependent inhibition of cell proliferation and functions in cell-cell adhesion and transmembrane signaling. The encoded protein has been shown to interact with cell-surface proteins, proteins involved in cytoskeletal dynamics, and proteins involved in regulating ion transport. Disruption of this protein's function has been implicated in tumorigenesis and metastasis. Mutations in this gene are associated with neurofibromatosis type II which is characterized by nervous system and skin tumors and ocular abnormalities. [provided by RefSeq, May 2022]

Significance:Uncertain significance
Review Status:criteria provided, single submitter
Collection Method:clinical testing

This missense variant replaces threonine with methionine at codon 352 of the NF2 protein. Computational prediction is inconclusive regarding the impact of this variant on protein structure and function (internally defined REVEL score threshold 0.5 < inconclusive < 0.7, PMID: 27666373). Functional studies have reported that the variant protein behaved similar to wild-type protein expressed in ex vivo cultured cells in protein expression, protein-protein interaction, subcellular localization, cell proliferation and actin cytoskeleton associated activity assays (PMID: 10712203, 11448944). This variant has been reported in an individual affected with type 2 neurofibromatosis (PMID: 8081368). This variant has been identified in 3/251460 chromosomes in the general population by the Genome Aggregation Database (gnomAD). The available evidence is insufficient to determine the role of this variant in disease conclusively. Therefore, this variant is classified as a Variant of Uncertain Significance. -

The p.T352M variant (also known as c.1055C>T), located in coding exon 11 of the NF2 gene, results from a C to T substitution at nucleotide position 1055. The threonine at codon 352 is replaced by methionine, an amino acid with similar properties. The variant has been reported to be de novo in one individual diagnosed with neurofibromatosis 2 (NF2) and detected in another individual diagnosed with bilateral vestibular schwannomas (Evans DG et al. J Med Genet, 1992 Dec;29:841-6; Bourn D et al. Hum. Mol. Genet., 1994 May;3:813-6). However, this variant has been identified in multiple individuals without clinical features of NF2 (Ambry internal data). Functional studies have shown that the variant may affect some aspects of the NF2 protein function; however, most of the functions are unaffected and clinical relevance of these studies is unknown (Stokowski RP et al. Am J Hum Genet, 2000 Mar;66:873-91; Gutmann DH et al. Hum Mol Genet, 2001 Jul;10:1519-29; Scoles DR et al. Biochem Biophys Res Commun, 2002 Jan;290:366-74). This amino acid position is not well conserved in available vertebrate species. In addition, the in silico prediction for this alteration is inconclusive. Based on the available evidence, the clinical significance of this variant remains unclear. -
