Genes affected
NEB (HGNC:7720): (nebulin) This gene encodes nebulin, a giant protein component of the cytoskeletal matrix that coexists with the thick and thin filaments within the sarcomeres of skeletal muscle. In most vertebrates, nebulin accounts for 3 to 4% of the total myofibrillar protein. The encoded protein contains approximately 30-amino acid long modules that can be classified into 7 types and other repeated modules. Protein isoform sizes vary from 600 to 800 kD due to alternative splicing that is tissue-, species-,and developmental stage-specific. Of the 183 exons in the nebulin gene, at least 43 are alternatively spliced, although exons 143 and 144 are not found in the same transcript. Of the several thousand transcript variants predicted for nebulin, the RefSeq Project has decided to create three representative RefSeq records. Mutations in this gene are associated with recessive nemaline myopathy. [provided by RefSeq, Sep 2009]

Significance: Likely pathogenic
Review Status: criteria provided, single submitter
Collection Method: curation

The p.Glu3116Ter variant in NEB has not been previously reported in the literature in individuals with nemaline myopathy, but has been identified in 0.001% (1/74916) of African/African American chromosomes by the Genome Aggregation Database (gnomAD, http://gnomad.broadinstitute.org dbSNP ID: rs193042896). Although this variant has been seen in the general population in a heterozygous state, its frequency is low enough to be consistent with a recessive carrier frequency. This variant has also been reported in ClinVar (Variation ID: 551922) and has been interpreted as likely pathogenic by Counsyl. This nonsense variant leads to a premature termination codon at position 3116, which is predicted to lead to a truncated or absent protein. Loss of function of the NEB gene is an established disease mechanism in autosomal recessive nemaline myopathy. In summary, although additional studies are required to fully establish its clinical significance, this variant is likely pathogenic for autosomal recessive nemaline myopathy. ACMG/AMP Criteria applied: PVS1, PM2_supporting (Richards 2015). -
