Variant summary

Our verdict is Pathogenic. Variant got 19 ACMG points: 19P and 0B. PM1 PM2 PM5 PP2 PP3_Strong PP5_Very_Strong

The NM_001042492.3(NF1):c.6685T>C(p.Trp2229Arg) variant causes a missense change involving the alteration of a conserved nucleotide. The variant was absent in control chromosomes in GnomAD project. In-silico tool predicts a pathogenic outcome for this variant. 12/21 in silico tools predict a damaging outcome for this variant. Variant has been reported in ClinVar as Likely pathogenic (★★). Another variant affecting the same amino acid position, but resulting in a different missense (i.e. W2229C) has been classified as Uncertain significance.

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 19 ACMG points.

• PM1: In a helix (size 12) in uniprot entity NF1_HUMAN there are 6 pathogenic changes around while only 0 benign (100%) in NM_001042492.3
• PM2: Very rare variant in population databases, with high coverage
• PM5: Other missense variant is known to change same aminoacid residue: Variant chr17-31337861-T-G is described in ClinVar as [Likely_pathogenic]. Clinvar id is 1702857.Status of the report is criteria_provided_single_submitter, 1 stars.
• PP2: Missense variant where missense usually causes diseases, NF1
• PP3: MetaRNN computational evidence supports a deleterious effect, 0.956
• PP5: Variant 17-31337861-T-C is Pathogenic according to our data. Variant chr17-31337861-T-C is described in ClinVar as [Likely_pathogenic]. Clinvar id is 404554.Status of the report is criteria_provided_multiple_submitters_no_conflicts, 2 stars.

Neurofibromatosis, type 1 Pathogenic:2

Likely pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitter	clinical testing	Genome-Nilou Lab	Mar 15, 2022	- -
Likely pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitter	clinical testing	Invitae	Dec 18, 2018	This sequence change replaces tryptophan with arginine at codon 2208 of the NF1 protein (p.Trp2208Arg). The tryptophan residue is moderately conserved and there is a moderate physicochemical difference between tryptophan and arginine. In summary, the currently available evidence indicates that the variant is pathogenic, but additional data are needed to prove that conclusively. Therefore, this variant has been classified as Likely Pathogenic. Algorithms developed to predict the effect of missense changes on protein structure and function are either unavailable or do not agree on the potential impact of this missense change (SIFT: "Deleterious"; PolyPhen-2: "Probably Damaging"; Align-GVGD: "Class C0"). This variant has been observed in an individual affected with neurofibromatosis type 1 (NF1) (external communication). It has also been observed to segregate with clinical features of NF1 in a family (Invitae). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 404554). This variant is not present in population databases (ExAC no frequency). -

The p.W2208R variant (also known as c.6622T>C), located in coding exon 43 of the NF1 gene, results from a T to C substitution at nucleotide position 6622. The tryptophan at codon 2208 is replaced by arginine, an amino acid with dissimilar properties. The variant was detected in multiple individuals with a clinical or suspected diagnosis of neurofibromatosis type 1 and co-segregated with disease in one family (Ambry internal data). This missense alteration is located in a region that has a low rate of benign missense variation (Lek M et al. Nature. 2016 Aug 18;536(7616):285-91; DECIPHER: Database of Chromosomal Imbalance and Phenotype in Humans using Ensembl Resources. Firth H.V. et al. 2009. Am.J.Hum.Genet. 84, 524-533). This variant was not reported in population-based cohorts in the Genome Aggregation Database (gnomAD). This amino acid position is highly conserved in available vertebrate species. In addition, this alteration is predicted to be deleterious by in silico analysis. Based on the majority of available evidence to date, this variant is likely to be pathogenic. -
