Genes affected

NF2 (HGNC:7773): (NF2, moesin-ezrin-radixin like (MERLIN) tumor suppressor) This gene encodes a protein that is similar to some members of the ERM (ezrin, radixin, moesin) family of proteins that link cytoskeletal components with proteins in the cell membrane. The encoded protein is involved in regulation of contact-dependent inhibition of cell proliferation and functions in cell-cell adhesion and transmembrane signaling. The encoded protein has been shown to interact with cell-surface proteins, proteins involved in cytoskeletal dynamics, and proteins involved in regulating ion transport. Disruption of this protein's function has been implicated in tumorigenesis and metastasis. Mutations in this gene are associated with neurofibromatosis type II which is characterized by nervous system and skin tumors and ocular abnormalities. [provided by RefSeq, May 2022]

ACMG classification

Verdict is Pathogenic. Variant got 12 ACMG points.

• PVS1: Splicing +-2 bp (donor or acceptor) variant, product NOT destroyed by NMD, known LOF gene, truncates exone, which is 0.04642058 fraction of the gene. Cryptic splice site detected, with MaxEntScore 6.8, offset of -27, new splice context is: ttgGTacgc. Cryptic site results in inframe change. If cryptic site found is not functional and variant results in exon loss, it results in frameshift change.
• PM2: Very rare variant in population databases, with high coverage
• PP5: Variant 22-29655677-G-A is Pathogenic according to our data. Variant chr22-29655677-G-A is described in ClinVar as [Likely_pathogenic]. Clinvar id is 1456945.Status of the report is criteria_provided_multiple_submitters_no_conflicts, 2 stars.

The c.599+1G>A intronic pathogenic mutation results from a G to A substitution one nucleotide after coding exon 6 of the NF2 gene. This alteration has been previously identified in the germline of one individual with neurofibromatosis 2 (NF2) and in the tumor of another individual with meningioma (Bourn D et al. Hum. Genet., 1995 May;95:572-4; Hansson CM et al. BMC Genomics, 2007 Jan;8:16). In addition to the clinical data presented in the literature, alterations that disrupt the canonical splice site are expected to cause aberrant splicing, resulting in an abnormal protein or a transcript that is subject to nonsense-mediated mRNA decay. As such, this alteration is classified as a disease-causing mutation. -

This sequence change affects a donor splice site in intron 6 of the NF2 gene. It is expected to disrupt RNA splicing. Variants that disrupt the donor or acceptor splice site typically lead to a loss of protein function (PMID: 16199547), and loss-of-function variants in NF2 are known to be pathogenic (PMID: 9643284, 16983642). This variant is not present in population databases (gnomAD no frequency). Disruption of this splice site has been observed in individuals with clinical features of NF2-related conditions (PMID: 7759081, 16983642; Invitae). This variant is also known as AGgt -> AGat599 +1. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 1456945). Algorithms developed to predict the effect of sequence changes on RNA splicing suggest that this variant may disrupt the consensus splice site. For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. -
