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]

This sequence change creates a premature translational stop signal (p.Lys2643*) in the NF1 gene. It is expected to result in an absent or disrupted protein product. Loss-of-function variants in NF1 are known to be pathogenic (PMID: 10712197, 23913538). This variant is not present in population databases (gnomAD no frequency). This premature translational stop signal has been observed in individual(s) with neurofibromatosis type 1 (PMID: 10712197, 22155606). This variant is also known as 7926insT. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 527531). For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic.

The c.7926dupT pathogenic mutation, located in coding exon 54 of the NF1 gene, results from a duplication of T at nucleotide position 7926, causing a translational frameshift with a predicted alternate stop codon (p.K2643*). This alteration was identified in one individual from a cohort of 521 German and Turkish patients with a clinical diagnosis of neurofibromatosis type I (Fahsold R et al. Am J Hum Genet, 2000 Mar;66:790-818). This variant is considered to be rare based on population cohorts in the Genome Aggregation Database (gnomAD). In addition to the clinical data presented in the literature, this alteration is expected to result in loss of function by premature protein truncation or nonsense-mediated mRNA decay. As such, this alteration is interpreted as a disease-causing mutation.
