Genes affected
NEXN (HGNC:29557): (nexilin F-actin binding protein) This gene encodes a filamentous actin-binding protein that may function in cell adhesion and migration. Mutations in this gene have been associated with dilated cardiomyopathy, also known as CMD1CC. Alternatively spliced transcript variants have been described.[provided by RefSeq, Feb 2010]

Uncertain significance, no assertion criteria providedclinical testingStanford Center for Inherited Cardiovascular Disease, Stanford UniversityAug 25, 2013Note this variant was found in clinical genetic testing performed by one or more labs who may also submit to ClinVar. Thus any internal case data may overlap with the internal case data of other labs. The interpretation reviewed below is that of the Stanford Center for Inherited Cardiovascular Disease. p.Leu479Phe (c.1435 C>T, L479F) in the NEXN gene (NM_144573.3) Given the lack of case data, the presence in the general population, and the lack of evidence for gene-phenotype relationship, we consider this variant a variant of uncertain significance and we do not feel it is suitable for assessing risk in healthy relatives ("predictive genetic testing"). The variant has not been reported in association with disease. In silico analysis with PolyPhen-2 predicts the variant to be possibly damaging (score 0.642). Sift score is 0.95, damaging. The variant was reported online in 3 of 4075 Caucasian individuals and 0 of 1801 African-American individuals in the NHLBI Exome Sequencing Project dataset (per GeneDx report). The phenotype of those individuals is not publicly available. The dataset is comprised of multiple cohorts, some of which were recruited from the general population, others were enriched for common cardiovascular disease. Note that other variants with strong evidence for pathogenicity have been seen at similar frequencies in this dataset so this does not necessarily rule out pathogenicity (Pan et al 2012). -

Cardiovascular phenotype Uncertain:1
Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingAmbry GeneticsSep 14, 2023The p.L479F variant (also known as c.1435C>T), located in coding exon 10 of the NEXN gene, results from a C to T substitution at nucleotide position 1435. The leucine at codon 479 is replaced by phenylalanine, an amino acid with highly similar properties. This variant has been detected in a hypertrophic cardiomyopathy cohort (Thomson KL et al. Genet Med. 2019 Jul;21(7):1576-1584). This amino acid position is not well conserved in available vertebrate species. In addition, this alteration is predicted to be tolerated by in silico analysis. Since supporting evidence is limited at this time, the clinical significance of this alteration remains unclear. -
Dilated cardiomyopathy 1CC;C3151267:Hypertrophic cardiomyopathy 20 Uncertain:1
Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingLabcorp Genetics (formerly Invitae), LabcorpJan 22, 2024This sequence change replaces leucine, which is neutral and non-polar, with phenylalanine, which is neutral and non-polar, at codon 479 of the NEXN protein (p.Leu479Phe). This variant is present in population databases (rs181520023, gnomAD 0.03%). This variant has not been reported in the literature in individuals affected with NEXN-related conditions. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 201925). 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 not expected to disrupt NEXN protein function with a negative predictive value of 80%. In summary, the available evidence is currently insufficient to determine the role of this variant in disease. Therefore, it has been classified as a Variant of Uncertain Significance. -
