Genes affected

NEB (HGNC:7720): (nebulin) This gene encodes nebulin, a giant protein component of the cytoskeletal matrix that coexists with the thick and thin filaments within the sarcomeres of skeletal muscle. In most vertebrates, nebulin accounts for 3 to 4% of the total myofibrillar protein. The encoded protein contains approximately 30-amino acid long modules that can be classified into 7 types and other repeated modules. Protein isoform sizes vary from 600 to 800 kD due to alternative splicing that is tissue-, species-,and developmental stage-specific. Of the 183 exons in the nebulin gene, at least 43 are alternatively spliced, although exons 143 and 144 are not found in the same transcript. Of the several thousand transcript variants predicted for nebulin, the RefSeq Project has decided to create three representative RefSeq records. Mutations in this gene are associated with recessive nemaline myopathy. [provided by RefSeq, Sep 2009]

This sequence change falls in intron 13 of the NEB gene. It does not directly change the encoded amino acid sequence of the NEB protein. It affects a nucleotide within the consensus splice site. This variant is present in population databases (rs111404077, gnomAD 0.03%). This variant has been observed in individual(s) with unspecified nemaline myopathy (PMID: 25205138). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 465438). Variants that disrupt the consensus splice site are a relatively common cause of aberrant splicing (PMID: 17576681, 9536098). Algorithms developed to predict the effect of sequence changes on RNA splicing suggest that this variant may disrupt the consensus splice site. In 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. -

Variant summary: NEB c.1152+5G>A alters a conserved nucleotide located close to a canonical splice site and therefore could affect mRNA splicing, leading to a significantly altered protein sequence. Several computational tools predict a significant impact on normal splicing: one predict the variant abolishes a 5 prime splicing donor site; three predict the variant weakens a 5 prime donor site. However, these predictions have yet to be confirmed by functional studies. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 0.00013 in 212526 control chromosomes. This frequency is not significantly higher than expected for a pathogenic variant in NEB causing Nemaline Myopathy 2 (0.00013 vs 0.0035), allowing no conclusion about variant significance. c.1152+5G>A has been reported in the literature in individuals affected with Nemaline Myopathy 2 (Lehtokari_2014). These data do not allow any conclusion about variant significance. To our knowledge, no experimental evidence demonstrating an impact on protein function has been reported. Four clinical diagnostic laboratories have submitted clinical-significance assessments for this variant to ClinVar after 2014 without evidence for independent evaluation. All laboratories classified the variant as uncertain significance. Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as uncertain significance. -

Significance: Uncertain significance

Review Status: criteria provided, single submitter

Collection Method: curation

The c.1152+5G>A variant in NEB has been identified in one individual with nemaline myopathy (PMID: 25205138), and has been identified in 0.01% (141/1161986) of European (non-Finnish) chromosomes by the Genome Aggregation Database (gnomAD, http://gnomad.broadinstitute.org; dbSNP ID: rs111404077). Although this variant has been seen in the general population in a heterozygous state, its frequency is not high enough to rule out a pathogenic role. This variant has also been reported in ClinVar (Variation ID: 465438) and has been interpreted as a variant of uncertain significance by multiple submitters. This variant is located in the 5‚Äô splice region. Computational tools do suggest an impact to splicing. However, this information is not predictive enough to determine pathogenicity. In summary, the clinical significance of the c.1152+5G>A variant is uncertain. ACMG/AMP Criteria applied: PP3 (Richards 2015). -
