Variant summary

Our verdict is Pathogenic. Variant got 11 ACMG points: 11P and 0B. PM1PM2PM5PP2PP3_Strong

The NM_001042492.3(NF1):c.4835G>A(p.Arg1612Lys) variant causes a missense, splice region change involving the alteration of a conserved nucleotide. The variant was absent in control chromosomes in GnomAD project. 2/2 splice prediction tools predicting alterations to normal splicing. Variant has been reported in ClinVar as Uncertain significance (★★). Another variant affecting the same amino acid position, but resulting in a different missense (i.e. R1612S) has been classified as Likely pathogenic.

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]

Submissions by phenotype

NF1-related condition Uncertain:1
Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingPreventionGenetics, part of Exact SciencesJul 20, 2023The NF1 c.4835G>A variant is predicted to result in the amino acid substitution p.Arg1612Lys. This variant occurs at the last nucleotide of the exon and is predicted to slightly weaken the canonical splice donor site (Alamut Visual Plus 1.6.1). To our knowledge, this variant has not been reported in the literature or in a large population database (http://gnomad.broadinstitute.org), indicating this variant is rare. At this time, the clinical significance of this variant is uncertain due to the absence of conclusive functional and genetic evidence. -
Hereditary cancer-predisposing syndrome;CN230736:Cardiovascular phenotype Uncertain:1
Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingAmbry GeneticsSep 06, 2017The c.4772G>A variant (also known as p.R1591K), located in coding exon 35 of the NF1 gene, results from a G to A substitution at nucleotide position 4772. The amino acid change results in arginine to lysine at codon 1591, an amino acid with highly similar properties. However, this change occurs in the last base pair of coding exon 35, which makes it likely to have some effect on normal mRNA splicing. This amino acid position is highly conserved in available vertebrate species. In addition, the in silico prediction for this alteration is inconclusive. Since supporting evidence is limited at this time, the clinical significance of this alteration remains unclear. -
