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]

ACMG classification

Verdict is Likely_pathogenic. Variant got 6 ACMG points.

• PVS1: Splicing +-2 bp (donor or acceptor) variant, product NOT destroyed by NMD, known LOF gene, truncates exone, which is 0.011384976 fraction of the gene. Cryptic splice site detected, with MaxEntScore 4.8, offset of 9, new splice context is: ttattgtgtaaatacttcAGagt. Cryptic site results in inframe change. If cryptic site found is not functional and variant results in exon loss, it results in frameshift change.
• PM2: Very rare variant in population databases, with high coverage
• PP5: Variant 17-31259031-G-A is Pathogenic according to our data. Variant chr17-31259031-G-A is described in ClinVar as [Pathogenic]. Clinvar id is 457692.Status of the report is criteria_provided_single_submitter, 1 stars. Variant chr17-31259031-G-A is described in Lovd as [Pathogenic].

For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. This variant disrupts a region of the NF1 protein in which other variant(s) (p.Leu1425Pro) have been determined to be pathogenic (PMID: 10607834, 10712197, 31730495). This suggests that this is a clinically significant region of the protein, and that variants that disrupt it are likely to be disease-causing. Studies have shown that disruption of this splice site results in the activation of a cryptic splice site in exon 32 (PMID: 23913538). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 457692). Disruption of this splice site has been observed in individuals with clinical features of neurofibromatosis type 1 (PMID: 18800150, 23913538). The frequency data for this variant in the population databases is considered unreliable, as metrics indicate poor data quality at this position in the gnomAD database. This sequence change affects an acceptor splice site in intron 31 of the NF1 gene. RNA analysis indicates that disruption of this splice site induces altered splicing and likely results in the loss of 3 amino acid residue(s), but is expected to preserve the integrity of the reading-frame. -
