Variant summary

Our verdict is Likely pathogenic. Variant got 7 ACMG points: 7P and 0B. PM1PM2PM5PP5

The NM_006158.5(NEFL):​c.65C>T​(p.Pro22Leu) variant causes a missense change involving the alteration of a non-conserved nucleotide. The variant was absent in control chromosomes in GnomAD project. Variant has been reported in ClinVar as Conflicting classifications of pathogenicity (no stars). Another variant affecting the same amino acid position, but resulting in a different missense (i.e. P22R) has been classified as Pathogenic.

Genes affected
NEFL (HGNC:7739): (neurofilament light chain) Neurofilaments are type IV intermediate filament heteropolymers composed of light, medium, and heavy chains. Neurofilaments comprise the axoskeleton and they functionally maintain the neuronal caliber. They may also play a role in intracellular transport to axons and dendrites. This gene encodes the light chain neurofilament protein. Mutations in this gene cause Charcot-Marie-Tooth disease types 1F (CMT1F) and 2E (CMT2E), disorders of the peripheral nervous system that are characterized by distinct neuropathies. A pseudogene has been identified on chromosome Y. [provided by RefSeq, Oct 2008]

ACMG classification

Classification made for transcript

Verdict is Likely_pathogenic. Variant got 7 ACMG points.

PM1
In a region_of_interest Head (size 90) in uniprot entity NFL_HUMAN there are 16 pathogenic changes around while only 3 benign (84%) in NM_006158.5
PM2
Very rare variant in population databases, with high coverage;
PM5
Other missense variant is known to change same aminoacid residue: Variant chr8-24956451-G-C is described in Lovd as [Pathogenic].
PP5
Variant 8-24956451-G-A is Pathogenic according to our data. Variant chr8-24956451-G-A is described in ClinVar as [Conflicting_classifications_of_pathogenicity]. Clinvar id is 1275783.We mark this variant Likely_pathogenic, oryginal submissions are: {Likely_pathogenic=1, Uncertain_significance=1}.

Experimental studies and prediction algorithms are not available or were not evaluated, and the functional significance of this variant is currently unknown. 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. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 1275783). This sequence change replaces proline, which is neutral and non-polar, with leucine, which is neutral and non-polar, at codon 22 of the NEFL protein (p.Pro22Leu). This variant is not present in population databases (gnomAD no frequency). This missense change has been observed in individual(s) with autosomal dominant Charcot-Marie-Tooth disease (PMID: 31827005). -
