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]

Neurofibromatosis, type 1 Pathogenic:4

Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitter	clinical testing	Clinical Genomics Laboratory, Washington University in St. Louis	Jul 25, 2023	An NF1 c.801G>A (p.Trp267Ter) variant was identified at an allelic fraction consistent with somatic origin. This variant has been previously reported in at least five individuals affected with neurofibromatosis type 1 (Gasparini P et al., PMID: 8834249; Fahsold R et al., PMID: 10712197; Wiest V et al., PMID: 14635100). The NF1 c.801G>A (p.Trp267Ter) variant has been reported in the ClinVar database as a pathogenic variant by multiple submitters (ClinVar Variation ID: 420075), and it has been reported in four cases in the cancer database COSMIC. This variant is absent from the general population (gnomAD v.2.1.1), indicating it is not a common variant. The NF1 c.801G>A (p.Trp267Ter) variant introduces a premature termination codon, resulting in a transcript that is predicted to undergo nonsense-mediated decay. Based on an internally-developed protocol informed by the ACMG/AMP guidelines (Richards S et al., PMID: 25741868) and gene-specific practices from the ClinGen Criteria Specification Registry, the NF1 c.801G>A (p.Trp267Ter) variant is classified as pathogenic.Of note, this assay cannot determine if the two pathogenic NF1 variants identified in this patient are in cis or in trans. -

Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitter	clinical testing	Invitae	Jan 24, 2023	ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 420075). This premature translational stop signal has been observed in individuals with neurofibromatosis type 1 (PMID: 8834249, 10712197, 14635100). It has also been observed to segregate with disease in related individuals. This variant is not present in population databases (gnomAD no frequency). This sequence change creates a premature translational stop signal (p.Trp267*) in the NF1 gene. It is expected to result in an absent or disrupted protein product. Loss-of-function variants in NF1 are known to be pathogenic (PMID: 10712197, 23913538). For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. -

The NF1 c.801G>A; p.Trp267Ter variant is reported in the literature in multiple patients with neurofibromatosis 1 (Gasparini 1996, Fahsold 2000, Wiest 2003, Maertens 2006, Laycock-van Spyk 2011, Sabbagh 2013). This variant is absent from general population databases (Exome Variant Server, Genome Aggregation Database), indicating it is not a common polymorphism. The p.Trp267Ter variant is listed in ClinVar (ClinVar ID 420075). This variant induces an early termination codon and is predicted to result in a truncated protein or mRNA subject to nonsense-mediated decay. Based on available information, the p.Trp267Ter variant is considered to be pathogenic. -

The p.W267* pathogenic mutation (also known as c.801G>A), located in coding exon 8 of the NF1 gene, results from a G to A substitution at nucleotide position 801. This changes the amino acid from a tryptophan to a stop codon within coding exon 8. This mutation has been reported in multiple individuals with neurofibromatosis type 1 (Gasparini P et al. Hum. Genet., 1996 Apr;97:492-5; Wiest V et al. Hum. Mutat., 2003 Dec;22:423-7). In addition to the clinical data presented in the literature, this alteration is expected to result in loss of function by premature protein truncation or nonsense-mediated mRNA decay. As such, this alteration is interpreted as a disease-causing mutation. -
