This sequence change replaces methionine, which is neutral and non-polar, with valine, which is neutral and non-polar, at codon 1149 of the NF1 protein (p.Met1149Val). This variant is present in population databases (no rsID available, gnomAD 0.004%). This missense change has been observed in individuals with clinical features of neurofibromatosis type 1 (PMID: 23656349, 24711935, 28706617, 31595648; internal data). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 527517). Invitae Evidence Modeling of protein sequence and biophysical properties (such as structural, functional, and spatial information, amino acid conservation, physicochemical variation, residue mobility, and thermodynamic stability) indicates that this missense variant is expected to disrupt NF1 protein function with a positive predictive value of 95%. This variant disrupts the p.Met1149 amino acid residue in NF1. Other variant(s) that disrupt this residue have been determined to be pathogenic (PMID: 16944272, 27322474; internal data). This suggests that this residue is clinically significant, and that variants that disrupt this residue are likely to be disease-causing. For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. -

The NF1 c.3445A>G (p.Met1149Val) variant results in the substitution of a methionine at amino acid position 1149 with valine. This variant has been reported in at least 38 heterozygous individuals with neurofibromatosis type 1 (Koczkowska et al. 2020). This variant is reported in the Genome Aggregation Database in one allele at a frequency of 0.000046 in the European (Finnish) population (version 2.1.1). The Met1149 residue has been identified as a non-truncating hotspot in the gene (Koczkowska et al. 2020) with additional pathogenic variants that have been identified in patients with neurofibromatosis type 1 within two residues on each side of the variant. Three other amino acid changes due to missense variants at the Met1149 residue that have been reported in the literature and found in at least 13 individuals with neurofibromatosis type 1 (Koczkowska et al. 2020). Multiple lines of computational evidence suggest the variant may have a deleterious effect on the gene or gene product. Based on the available evidence, the c.3445A>G (p.Met1149Val) variant is classified as pathogenic for neurofibromatosis type 1. -

NF1 NM_000267.3 exon 26 p.Met1149Val (c.3445A>G): This variant has been reported in the literature in multiple individuals with features of neurofibromatosis type I, segregating with disease in several affected family members (van Minkelen 2014 PMID:23656349, Domingues 2014 PMID:24711935, Koczkowska 2020 PMID:31595648). This variant is not present in large control databases but is present in ClinVar, with several labs classifying this variant as pathogenic or likely pathogenic (Variation ID:527517). Evolutionary conservation and computational predictive tools suggest that this variant may impact the protein. Additionally, splice prediction tools suggest that this variant may affect splicing. However, further studies are needed to understand its impact. In summary, this variant is classified as pathogenic based on the data above -

In silico analysis supports that this missense variant has a deleterious effect on protein structure/function; Published functional studies demonstrate a damaging effect: impaired ability to inhibit GTP-Ras activity (Long et al., 2022); This variant is associated with the following publications: (PMID: 23656349, 26681766, 28706617, 24711935, 29617658, 29095814, 31618753, 31370276, 25486365, 2121369, 22807134, 27322474, 29290338, 16944272, 31776437, 31595648, 33884301, 34694046) -

NF1-related disorder    Pathogenic:1 
The NF1 c.3445A>G variant is predicted to result in the amino acid substitution p.Met1149Val. This missense variant has been documented in several individuals with neurofibromatosis type 1 (Domingues et al. 2014. PubMed ID: 24711935; Gengel et al. 2017. PubMed ID: 28706617; Koczkowska et al. 2020. PubMed ID: 31595648). In addition, alternative missense changes at the same codon (p.Met1149Thr, p.Met1149Ile) have been documented to be pathogenic individuals with neurofibromatosis type 1 (Koczkowska et al. 2020. PubMed ID: 31595648; Evans et al. 2016. PubMed ID: 27322474; Griffiths et al. 2007. PubMed ID: 16944272) and are interpreted as pathogenic/likely pathogenic in ClinVar (https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/clinvar/variation/527517/). This variant is reported in 0.0046% of alleles in individuals of European (Finnish) descent in gnomAD (http://gnomad.broadinstitute.org/variant/17-29559848-A-G). This variant is interpreted as pathogenic. -
Neurofibromatosis-Noonan syndrome    Pathogenic:1 
The observed missense variant c.3445A>G(p.Met1149Val) in NF1 gene has been reported previously in heterozygous state in multiple individuals with neurofibromatosis (Koczkowska M, et al., 2020, Domingues S, et al., 2014 ). The Met1149 residue has been identified as a non-truncating hotspot in the gene with additional pathogenic variants that have been identified in patients with neurofibromatosis type 1 within two residues on each side of the variant (Koczkowska et al. 2020). Three other amino acid changes due to missense variants at the Met1149 residue that have been reported. The (p.Met1149Val) variant is reported with 0.0004% allele frequecny in gnomAD Exomes. This variant has been reported to the ClinVar database as Pathogenic/Likely Pathogenic. Multiple lines of computational evidence (Polyphen- probably damaging, SIFT-damaging and Mutation Taster-disease causing) predict a damaging effect on protein structure and function for this variant. The amino acid Met at position 1149 is changed to a Val changing protein sequence and it might alter its composition and physico-chemical properties. The reference amino acid p.Met1149Val in NF1 is predicted as conserved by GERP++ and PhyloP across 100 vertebrates. For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. -

The p.M1149V pathogenic mutation (also known as c.3445A>G), located in coding exon 26 of the NF1 gene, results from an A to G substitution at nucleotide position 3445. The methionine at codon 1149 is replaced by valine, an amino acid with highly similar properties. This alteration has been reported in individuals with a confirmed or suspected clinical diagnosis of neurofibromatosis type 1, including in an individual in which it was identified as de novo (Domingues S et al. Case Rep Genet, 2014 Mar;2014:423071; Gengel N et al. Pediatr Rep, 2017 Jun;9:6810; Kang E et al. J Hum Genet, 2020 Jan;65:79-89; Srivastava P et al. Heliyon, 2024 Jan;10:e23685; Ambry internal data). Based on the supporting evidence, this variant is interpreted as a disease-causing mutation. -
