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]

Likely pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingInvitaeNov 14, 2019This variant is not present in population databases (ExAC no frequency). This sequence change affects an acceptor splice site in intron 23 of the NF1 gene. It is expected to disrupt RNA splicing and likely results in an absent or disrupted protein product. This variant has been observed in individual(s) with definite or suspected NF1 (PMID: 24789688). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 457623). In summary, the currently available evidence indicates that the variant is pathogenic, but additional data are needed to prove that conclusively. Therefore, this variant has been classified as Likely Pathogenic. Donor and acceptor splice site variants typically lead to a loss of protein function (PMID: 16199547), and loss-of-function variants in NF1 are known to be pathogenic (PMID: 10712197, 23913538). Algorithms developed to predict the effect of sequence changes on RNA splicing suggest that this variant may disrupt the consensus splice site, but this prediction has not been confirmed by published transcriptional studies. -

Hereditary cancer-predisposing syndrome;CN230736:Cardiovascular phenotype Pathogenic:1
Likely pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingAmbry GeneticsOct 16, 2020The c.3114-2A>G intronic variant results from an A to G substitution two nucleotides upstream from coding exon 24 in the NF1 gene. This variant has been reported in individual(s) with a clinical or suspected diagnosis of neurofibromatosis type 1 (Xu W et al. Int J Mol Med, 2014 Jul;34:53-60). RNA studies have demonstrated that this alteration results in a transcript predicted to lead to a protein with an in-frame deletion of 28 amino acids (Ambry internal data). The exact functional effect of the missing amino acids is unknown; however, the impacted region is critical for protein function (Ambry internal data). This variant was not reported in population-based cohorts in the Genome Aggregation Database (gnomAD). This nucleotide position is highly conserved in available vertebrate species. Based on the majority of available evidence to date, this variant is likely to be pathogenic. -
