Genes affected

NEB (HGNC:7720): (nebulin) This gene encodes nebulin, a giant protein component of the cytoskeletal matrix that coexists with the thick and thin filaments within the sarcomeres of skeletal muscle. In most vertebrates, nebulin accounts for 3 to 4% of the total myofibrillar protein. The encoded protein contains approximately 30-amino acid long modules that can be classified into 7 types and other repeated modules. Protein isoform sizes vary from 600 to 800 kD due to alternative splicing that is tissue-, species-,and developmental stage-specific. Of the 183 exons in the nebulin gene, at least 43 are alternatively spliced, although exons 143 and 144 are not found in the same transcript. Of the several thousand transcript variants predicted for nebulin, the RefSeq Project has decided to create three representative RefSeq records. Mutations in this gene are associated with recessive nemaline myopathy. [provided by RefSeq, Sep 2009]

ACMG classification

Verdict is Pathogenic. Variant got 18 ACMG points.

• PVS1: Loss of function variant, product undergoes nonsense mediated mRNA decay. LoF is a known mechanism of disease.
• PM2: Very rare variant in population databases, with high coverage
• PP5: Variant 2-151663588-CT-C is Pathogenic according to our data. Variant chr2-151663588-CT-C is described in ClinVar as [Likely_pathogenic]. Clinvar id is 465618.Status of the report is criteria_provided_multiple_submitters_no_conflicts, 2 stars. Variant chr2-151663588-CT-C is described in Lovd as [Pathogenic].

Variant summary: NEB c.5722delA (p.Ser1908AlafsX8) results in a premature termination codon, predicted to cause a truncation of the encoded protein or absence of the protein due to nonsense mediated decay, which are commonly known mechanisms for disease. Truncations downstream of this position have been classified as pathogenic by our laboratory. The variant was absent in 248224 control chromosomes (gnomAD). c.5722delA has been reported in the literature in one individual affected with nemaline myopathy (Ottenheijm_2009). The data indicate that the variant is very likely to be associated with disease. To our knowledge, no experimental evidence demonstrating an impact on protein function has been reported. One ClinVar submitter (evaluation after 2014) cites the variant as pathogenic. Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as likely pathogenic. -

This sequence change creates a premature translational stop signal (p.Ser1908Alafs*8) in the NEB gene. It is expected to result in an absent or disrupted protein product. Loss-of-function variants in NEB are known to be pathogenic (PMID: 25205138). This variant is not present in population databases (gnomAD no frequency). This premature translational stop signal has been observed in individual(s) with nemaline myopathy (PMID: 19944167). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 465618). Algorithms developed to predict the effect of sequence changes on RNA splicing suggest that this variant may disrupt the consensus splice site. For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. -
