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 falls in intron 23 of the NF1 gene. It does not directly change the encoded amino acid sequence of the NF1 protein. It affects a nucleotide within the consensus splice site. This variant is not present in population databases (gnomAD no frequency). This variant has been observed in individuals with neurofibromatosis (PMID: 18546366; Invitae). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 457622). Variants that disrupt the consensus splice site are a relatively common cause of aberrant splicing (PMID: 17576681, 9536098). Algorithms developed to predict the effect of sequence changes on RNA splicing suggest that this variant may disrupt the consensus splice site. This variant disrupts the c.3113+5G nucleotide in the NF1 gene. Other variant(s) that disrupt this nucleotide have been determined to be pathogenic (PMID: 12807981, 17311297). This suggests that this nucleotide is clinically significant, and that variants that disrupt this position are likely to be disease-causing. For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. -

The c.3113+5G>A intronic pathogenic mutation results from a G to A substitution 5 nucleotides after coding exon 23 in the NF1 gene. This variant was detected in individuals with a clinical diagnosis or suspicion of neurofibromatosis type 1 (Pros E et al. Hum Mutat, 2008 Sep;29:E173-93; Ambry internal data). In silico splice site analysis for this alteration is inconclusive. RNA studies have demonstrated that this alteration results in skipping of exon 23 (Wimmer K et al. Hum Mutat, 2007 Jun;28:599-612; Pros E et al. Hum Mutat, 2008 Sep;29:E173-93; Ambry internal data). This nucleotide position is well conserved in available vertebrate species. This variant is considered to be rare based on population cohorts in the Genome Aggregation Database (gnomAD). Based on the supporting evidence, this alteration is interpreted as a disease-causing mutation. -
