Genes affected
NEBL (HGNC:16932): (nebulette) This gene encodes a nebulin like protein that is abundantly expressed in cardiac muscle. The encoded protein binds actin and interacts with thin filaments and Z-line associated proteins in striated muscle. This protein may be involved in cardiac myofibril assembly. A shorter isoform of this protein termed LIM nebulette is expressed in non-muscle cells and may function as a component of focal adhesion complexes. Alternate splicing results in multiple transcript variants. [provided by RefSeq, Mar 2010]

ACMG classification

Classification made for transcript

Verdict is Uncertain_significance. Variant got 3 ACMG points.

PVS1
Splicing +-2 bp (donor or acceptor) variant, product NOT destroyed by NMD, known LOF gene, truncates exone, which is 0.03415435 fraction of the gene. Cryptic splice site detected, with MaxEntScore 7.2, offset of 5, new splice context is: aagGTatca. Cryptic site results in frameshift change. If cryptic site found is not functional and variant results in exon loss, it results in inframe change.
PM2
Very rare variant in population databases, with high coverage;
BP6
Variant 10-20889844-C-T is Benign according to our data. Variant chr10-20889844-C-T is described in ClinVar as [Conflicting_classifications_of_pathogenicity]. Clinvar id is 229045.We mark this variant Likely_benign, oryginal submissions are: {Likely_benign=1, Uncertain_significance=2}.

Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingWomen's Health and Genetics/Laboratory Corporation of America, LabCorpOct 07, 2024Variant summary: NEBL c.258+1G>A is located in a canonical splice-site and is predicted to affect mRNA splicing resulting in a significantly altered protein due to either exon skipping, shortening, or inclusion of intronic material. Variants that disrupt the consensus splice site are a relatively common cause of aberrant splicing, however current evidence is not sufficient to establish loss of function as a mechanism for disease. Several computational tools predict a significant impact on normal splicing: four predict the variant abolishes a 5' splicing donor site, and one predicts the variant strengthens a cryptic 5' donor site. However, these predictions have yet to be confirmed by functional studies. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 2.5e-05 in 1582410 control chromosomes (i.e. in 39 carriers) in the gnomAD database (v4.1 dataset). The observed variant frequency is approximately 3-fold of the estimated maximal expected allele frequency for a pathogenic variant in NEBL causing Dilated Cardiomyopathy phenotype (7.8e-06). Although the allele frequency suggests that the variant is not causal for a severe, early onset, high penetrance, dominant disease phenotype, however the association with recessive conditions (or risk associations) cannot be excluded. To our knowledge, no occurrence of c.258+1G>A in individuals affected with Dilated Cardiomyopathy and no experimental evidence demonstrating its impact on protein function have been reported. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 229045). Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as uncertain significance. -

Primary dilated cardiomyopathy Uncertain:1
Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingLabcorp Genetics (formerly Invitae), LabcorpOct 13, 2023This sequence change affects a donor splice site in intron 3 of the NEBL gene. It is expected to disrupt RNA splicing. Variants that disrupt the donor or acceptor splice site typically lead to a loss of protein function (PMID: 16199547), however the current clinical and genetic evidence is not sufficient to establish whether loss-of-function variants in NEBL cause disease. This variant is present in population databases (rs139581346, gnomAD 0.05%). This variant has not been reported in the literature in individuals affected with NEBL-related conditions. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 229045). 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. -
