Our verdict is Uncertain significance. The variant received 2 ACMG points: 2P and 0B. PM2
The NM_001037132.4(NRCAM):c.3410G>A(p.Gly1137Asp) variant causes a missense change. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 0.000000684 in 1,461,642 control chromosomes in the GnomAD database, with no homozygous occurrence. No clinical diagnostic laboratories have submitted clinical-significance assessments for this variant to ClinVar. Another variant affecting the same amino acid position, but resulting in a different missense (i.e. G1137A) has been classified as Uncertain significance.
NRCAM (HGNC:7994): (neuronal cell adhesion molecule) Cell adhesion molecules (CAMs) are members of the immunoglobulin superfamily. This gene encodes a neuronal cell adhesion molecule with multiple immunoglobulin-like C2-type domains and fibronectin type-III domains. This ankyrin-binding protein is involved in neuron-neuron adhesion and promotes directional signaling during axonal cone growth. This gene is also expressed in non-neural tissues and may play a general role in cell-cell communication via signaling from its intracellular domain to the actin cytoskeleton during directional cell migration. Allelic variants of this gene have been associated with autism and addiction vulnerability. Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants encoding different isoforms.
