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]

This sequence change creates a premature translational stop signal (p.Arg974*) 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 fetal akinesia with lethal multiple pterygia syndrome (PMID: 25205138, 26578207). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 465594). For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. -

Nemaline myopathy Pathogenic:1
Nov 03, 2022
Laboratory for Molecular Medicine, Mass General Brigham Personalized Medicine
Significance: Likely pathogenic
Review Status: criteria provided, single submitter
Collection Method: clinical testing

The p.Arg974X variant in NEB has been reported in the homozygous state in consanguineous monoamniotic twin fetuses with severe hydrops, bilateral joint contractures, bilateral talipes, multiple pterygia, hypertelorism and cystic hygromas (Todd 2015 PMID: 26578207). It is absent from ClinVar but observed in 1/68012 European (non-Finnish) in gnomAD (https://gnomad.broadinstitute.org/). This nonsense variant leads to a premature termination codon at position 974, which is predicted to lead to a truncated or absent protein. Loss of function of the NEB gene is an established disease mechanism in autosomal recessive nemaline myopathy. In summary, although additional studies are required to fully establish its clinical significance, this variant meets criteria to be classified as likely pathogenic for autosomal recessive nemaline myopathy.
