Genes affected
NEXN (HGNC:29557): (nexilin F-actin binding protein) This gene encodes a filamentous actin-binding protein that may function in cell adhesion and migration. Mutations in this gene have been associated with dilated cardiomyopathy, also known as CMD1CC. Alternatively spliced transcript variants have been described.[provided by RefSeq, Feb 2010]

The c.1952_1953delAG variant, located in coding exon 12 of the NEXN gene, results from a deletion of two nucleotides at nucleotide positions 1952 to 1953, causing a translational frameshift with a predicted alternate stop codon (p.E651Vfs*4). This alteration is expected to result in loss of function by premature protein truncation, with loss of the C-terminal 24 amino acids. However, the mechanism of disease for NEXN mutations has not been clearly established, and the impact of this truncation on protein function is unclear. Since supporting evidence is limited at this time, the clinical significance of this alteration remains unclear. -
