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]

Hereditary cancer-predisposing syndrome Uncertain:1
Nov 12, 2015
Ambry Genetics
Significance:Uncertain significance
Review Status:criteria provided, single submitter
Collection Method:clinical testing

The p.L2279F variant (also known as c.6837A>C), located in coding exon 46 of the NF1 gene, results from an A to C substitution at nucleotide position 6837. The leucine at codon 2279 is replaced by phenylalanine, an amino acid with highly similar properties. This variant was previously reported in the SNPDatabase as rs144287929. Based on data from the NHLBI Exome Sequencing Project (ESP), the C allele has an overall frequency of approximately 0.01% (1/12998) total alleles studied, having been observed in 0.02% (1/4406) African American alleles. To date, this alteration has been detected with an allele frequency of approximately 0.001% (greater than 110000alleles tested) in our clinical cohort.This amino acid position is highly conserved in available vertebrate species. In addition, the in silico prediction for this alteration is inconclusive.Since supporting evidence is limited at this time, the clinical significance of p.L2279Fremains unclear. -

Hereditary cancer-predisposing syndrome;CN230736:Cardiovascular phenotype Benign:1
Sep 27, 2022
Ambry Genetics
Significance:Likely benign
Review Status:criteria provided, single submitter
Collection Method:clinical testing

This alteration is classified as likely benign based on a combination of the following: seen in unaffected individuals, population frequency, intact protein function, lack of segregation with disease, co-occurrence, RNA analysis, in silico models, amino acid conservation, lack of disease association in case-control studies, and/or the mechanism of disease or impacted region is inconsistent with a known cause of pathogenicity. -
