Variant summary
Our verdict is Pathogenic. Variant got 10 ACMG points: 10P and 0B. PM1PM2PM5PP2PP3_ModeratePP5
The NM_001042492.3(NF1):c.3644T>A(p.Met1215Lys) variant causes a missense change involving the alteration of a conserved nucleotide. The variant was absent in control chromosomes in GnomAD project. In-silico tool predicts a pathogenic outcome for this variant. Variant has been reported in ClinVar as Conflicting classifications of pathogenicity (no stars). Another variant affecting the same amino acid position, but resulting in a different missense (i.e. M1215R) has been classified as Pathogenic.

The NF1 c.3644T>A; p.Met1215Lys variant, to our knowledge, is not reported in the medical literature, but is reported in an NF1 specific database as occurring de novo in at least one individual (see link below). This variant is also absent from the Genome Aggregation Database, indicating it is not a common polymorphism. The methionine at codon 1215 is moderately conserved, and computational analyses predict that this variant is deleterious (REVEL: 0.945). Another variant in the same codon, c.3644T>G; p.Met1215Arg, is reported as occurring de novo in several individuals and is considered pathogenic (see link below, Bianchessi 2015). Additionally, other variants occurring in this codon have been reported in affected individuals (ClinVar Variation IDs: 547631, 1040466). However, given the lack of clinical and functional data, the significance of the p.Met1215Lys variant is uncertain at this time.

Neurofibromatosis, type 1 Pathogenic:1
This sequence change replaces methionine, which is neutral and non-polar, with lysine, which is basic and polar, at codon 1215 of the NF1 protein (p.Met1215Lys). This variant is not present in population databases (gnomAD no frequency). This missense change has been observed in individual(s) with neurofibromatosis type 1 (Invitae). Advanced modeling of protein sequence and biophysical properties (such as structural, functional, and spatial information, amino acid conservation, physicochemical variation, residue mobility, and thermodynamic stability) performed at Invitae indicates that this missense variant is expected to disrupt NF1 protein function. This variant disrupts the p.Met1215 amino acid residue in NF1. Other variant(s) that disrupt this residue have been determined to be pathogenic (PMID: 26740943). This suggests that this residue is clinically significant, and that variants that disrupt this residue are likely to be disease-causing. For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. -
