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 Pathogenic. Variant got 18 ACMG points.

• PVS1: Splicing +-2 bp (donor or acceptor) variant, LoF is a know mechanism of disease, Cryptic splice site detected, with MaxEntScore 6.3, offset of 13, new splice context is: agaGTaagc. Cryptic site results in frameshift 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 17-31233214-G-A is Pathogenic according to our data. Variant chr17-31233214-G-A is described in ClinVar as [Likely_pathogenic]. Clinvar id is 635478.Status of the report is criteria_provided_multiple_submitters_no_conflicts, 2 stars. Variant chr17-31233214-G-A is described in Lovd as [Pathogenic].

Neurofibromatosis, type 1 Pathogenic:2

Likely pathogenic, no assertion criteria provided	clinical testing	Bioscientia Institut fuer Medizinische Diagnostik GmbH, Sonic Healthcare	Feb 01, 2019	- -
Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitter	clinical testing	Labcorp Genetics (formerly Invitae), Labcorp	Dec 16, 2024	This sequence change affects a donor splice site in intron 27 of the NF1 gene. RNA analysis indicates that disruption of this splice site induces altered splicing and may result in an absent or altered protein product. This variant is present in population databases (no rsID available, gnomAD 0.003%). Disruption of this splice site has been observed in individual(s) with clinical features of neurofibromatosis type 1 (PMID: 26056819, 30308447; internal data). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 635478). Studies have shown that disruption of this splice site results in skipping of exon 27, and produces a non-functional protein and/or introduces a premature termination codon (internal data). For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. -
