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]

This variant segregated with disease in 2 affected family members (Ars 2000 PMID:10607834). This variant is present in 3/245628 individuals of different ethnicities in the Genome Aggregation Database (http://gnomad.broadinstitute.org/rs137854557). Please note, disease causing variants may be present in control databases at low frequencies, reflective of the general population and/or variable expressivity. This variant is present in ClinVar (Variation ID:354). Evolutionary conservation and computational predictive tools for this variant are unclear. Of note, functional studies have shown a deleterious effect of this variant, resulting in the creation of a new splice site (Messiaen 1999 PMID: 11258625, Ars 2000 PMID:10607834, Messiaen 2000 PMID:10862084). In summary, this variant is classified as pathogenic based on the data above (presence of this variant in affected probands, presence as a de novo and predicted impact to protein). -

The variant has been observed in multiple (>3) similarly affected unrelated individuals(PMID: 10607834, 10862084, 10543400, 22155606, 19076627, PS4_S). It is observed at an extremely low frequency in the gnomAD v2.1.1 dataset (total allele frequency: 0.000012, PM2_M). Therefore, this variant is classified as pathogenic according to the recommendation of ACMG/AMP guideline. -

Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingLabcorp Genetics (formerly Invitae), LabcorpJan 18, 2024This sequence change replaces tyrosine, which is neutral and polar, with cysteine, which is neutral and slightly polar, at codon 489 of the NF1 protein (p.Tyr489Cys). RNA analysis indicates that this missense change induces altered splicing and may result in an absent or disrupted protein product. This variant is present in population databases (rs137854557, gnomAD 0.007%). This missense change has been observed in individuals with neurofibromatosis type 1 (PMID: 10543400, 10607834, 10862084, 11258625, 19076627, 22155606, 22190595). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 354). Advanced modeling of protein sequence and biophysical properties (such as structural, functional, and spatial information, amino acid conservation, physicochemical variation, residue mobility, and thermodynamic stability) has been performed at Invitae for this missense variant, however the output from this modeling did not meet the statistical confidence thresholds required to predict the impact of this variant on NF1 protein function. Studies have shown that this missense change results in skipping of 62 nucleotides in exon 13 (referred to as exon 10b in the literature) and introduces a premature termination codon (PMID: 10543400, 10607834, 11258625). The resulting mRNA is expected to undergo nonsense-mediated decay. For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. -

This variant has been reported in many individuals with neurofibromatosis type 1 (see for example - Messiaen et al. 1999. PubMed ID: 11258625; Table S2, Laycock-van Spyk et al. 2011. PubMed ID: 22155606; Tsipi et al. 2018. PubMed ID: 30308447). Splicing analysis found this variant results in aberrant splicing that is predicted to result in a frameshift and premature protein termination (Messiaen et al. 1999. PubMed ID: 11258625; Table S1, Zhang et al. 2015. PubMed ID: 26056819). This variant is reported in 0.0062% of alleles in individuals of African descent in gnomAD and has been interpreted as pathogenic in ClinVar (https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/clinvar/variation/354/). This variant is interpreted as pathogenic. -

Neurofibromatosis-Noonan syndrome Pathogenic:1
Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingPittsburgh Clinical Genomics Laboratory, University of Pittsburgh Medical CenterMay 23, 2023This sequence variant is a single nucleotide substitution (A>G) at position 1466 of the coding sequence of the NF1 gene that results in a tyrosine to cysteine amino acid change at residue 489 of the neurofibromin 1 protein. Additiolly, experimental evidence confirms that this variant generates an altertive splice site that causes exon skipping and generates an early termition codon at residue 489 (PMID: 11258625). This is a previously reported, recurrent variant (ClinVar 354) that has been observed in many individuals from cohorts of neurofibromatosis patients (PMID: 11258625, 23758643, 34427956). This variant is present in 3 of 250646 alleles (0.0012%) in the gnomAD population dataset. Multiple bioinformatic tools predict that this tyrosine to cysteine amino acid change would be neutral, and the Tyr489 residue at this position is highly conserved across the vertebrate species examined. Based upon the evidence, we consider this variant to be pathogenic. ACMG Criteria: PM2, PP3, PS3, PS4 -

Hereditary cancer-predisposing syndrome Pathogenic:1
Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingAmbry GeneticsJul 11, 2014The p.Y489C pathogenic mutation (also known as c.1466A>G), located in coding exon 13 of the NF1 gene, results from an A to G substitution at nucleotide position 1466. This is a recurrent mutation that has been detected in multiple cohorts of NF1 patients (<span style="background-color: initial;">Messiaen LM et al. Genet. Med. 1999; 1(6):248-53,<span style="background-color: initial;">Nemethova M et al. Ann. Hum. Genet. 2013 Sep; 77(5):364-79, Ko JM et al. Pediatr. Neurol. 2013 Jun; 48(6):447-53). Messiaen et al (1999) first described this mutation in 5 patients meeting NIH criteria for NF1 and demonstrated that this alteration creates a novel splice site, resulting in skipping of the last 62 nucleotides of coding exon 13 and truncation of the protein. In Nemethova et al (2013), this mutation was observed to segregate with disease in a patient meeting NIH criteria for NF1 and her twin daughters, in whom cafe au lait spots and axial/inguinal freckling were present in infancy. Functional studies performed in this study were also consistent with a splicing defect resulting in a truncated protein. Based on the available evidence, p.Y489C is classified as a pathogenic mutation. -
