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]

ACMG classification

Classification made for transcript

Verdict is Uncertain_significance. Variant got 5 ACMG points.

PVS1
Splicing +-2 bp (donor or acceptor) variant, product NOT destroyed by NMD, known LOF gene, truncates exone, which is 0.0043005706 fraction of the gene. Cryptic splice site detected, with MaxEntScore 5.9, offset of -5, new splice context is: caaGTgagg. Cryptic site results in frameshift change. If cryptic site found is not functional and variant results in exon loss, it results in inframe change.
PM2
Very rare variant in population databases, with high coverage;
PP5
Variant 2-151519656-A-G is Pathogenic according to our data. Variant chr2-151519656-A-G is described in ClinVar as [Conflicting_classifications_of_pathogenicity]. Clinvar id is 451052.We mark this variant Likely_pathogenic, oryginal submissions are: {Likely_pathogenic=7, Uncertain_significance=2}.

Nemaline myopathy 2 Pathogenic:4Uncertain:1
Likely pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingLabcorp Genetics (formerly Invitae), LabcorpJan 08, 2024This sequence change affects a donor splice site in intron 155 of the NEB 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 NEB are known to be pathogenic (PMID: 25205138). This variant is present in population databases (rs200449517, gnomAD 0.02%). This variant has not been reported in the literature in individuals affected with NEB-related conditions. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 451052). Algorithms developed to predict the effect of sequence changes on RNA splicing suggest that this variant may disrupt the consensus splice site. In summary, the currently available evidence indicates that the variant is pathogenic, but additional data are needed to prove that conclusively. Therefore, this variant has been classified as Likely Pathogenic. -
Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingIllumina Laboratory Services, IlluminaOct 30, 2018The NEB c.17487+2T>C variant, which corresponds to c.22695+2T>C in the transcript NM_001271208.1, occurs in a canonical splice site (donor) and is therefore predicted to disrupt or distort the normal gene product. A literature search was performed for the gene and cDNA change. No publications were found through this search. The c.17487+2T>C variant is reported at a frequency of 0.000211 in the European (non-Finnish) population of the Exome Aggregation Consortium. Based on the potential impact of splice variants and the lack of clarifying evidence, the c.17487+2T>C variant is classified as of uncertain significance but suspicious for pathogenicity for nemaline myopathy. This variant was observed by ICSL as part of a predisposition screen in an ostensibly healthy population. -

Likely pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingVictorian Clinical Genetics Services, Murdoch Childrens Research InstituteJun 24, 2022Based on the classification scheme VCGS_Germline_v1.3.4, this variant is classified as likely pathogenic. Following criteria are met: 0102 - Loss of function is a known mechanism of disease in this gene and is associated with arthrogryposis multiplex congenita 6 (MIM#619334) and nemaline myopathy 2 (MIM#256030). (I) 0106 - This gene is associated with autosomal recessive disease. (I) 0115 - Variants in this gene are known to have variable expressivity (OMIM). (I) 0211 - Canonical splice site variant without proven consequence on splicing (no functional evidence available). (SP) 0251 - This variant is heterozygous. (I) 0304 - Variant is present in gnomAD (v2) <0.01 for a recessive condition (28 heterozygotes, 0 homozygotes). (SP) 0505 - Abnormal splicing is predicted by in silico tools and affected nucleotide is highly conserved. (SP) 0705 - No comparable canonical splice variants have previous evidence for pathogenicity. (I) 0802 - This variant has moderate previous evidence of pathogenicity in unrelated individuals. This variant has been reported once as a VUS, but multiple times as likely pathogenic but with limited clinical information. One individual had progressive muscle weakness and foot drop with a variant of uncertain significance in trans (ClinVar, personal communication). It has also been observed in a cohort with retinopathy (PMID: 28132693). (SP) 0905 - No published segregation evidence has been identified for this variant. (I) 1007 - No published functional evidence has been identified for this variant. (I) 1208 - Inheritance information for this variant is not currently available in this individual.

Nemaline myopathy Pathogenic:1
Likely pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingWomen's Health and Genetics/Laboratory Corporation of America, LabCorpJan 11, 2024Variant summary: NEB c.22695+2T>C is located in a canonical splice-site and is predicted to affect mRNA splicing resulting in a significantly altered protein due to either exon skipping, shortening, or inclusion of intronic material. Several computational tools predict a significant impact on normal splicing: Three predict the variant abolishes a 5' splicing donor site, and one predicts the variant has no significant impact on splicing. However, these predictions have yet to be confirmed by functional studies. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 9.3e-05 in 248252 control chromosomes. This frequency is not significantly higher than estimated for a pathogenic variant in NEB causing Nemaline Myopathy 2 (9.3e-05 vs 0.0035), allowing no conclusion about variant significance. c.22695+2T>C has been reported in the literature in an individual affected with simplex Retinitis Pigmentosa without any familial history of Nemaline Myopathy and who did not have a reported second pathogenic variant (Arno_2017). This report does not provide unequivocal conclusions about association of the variant with Nemaline Myopathy 2. To our knowledge, no experimental evidence demonstrating an impact on protein function has been reported. The following publication has been ascertained in the context of this evaluation (PMID: 28132693). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 451052). Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as likely pathogenic. -
