Variant summary

Our verdict is Likely benign. The variant received -5 ACMG points: 0P and 5B. BP4_StrongBP6

The NM_001199397.3(NEK1):​c.1137T>A​(p.Asp379Glu) variant causes a missense change involving the alteration of a non-conserved nucleotide. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 0.00037 in 1,610,356 control chromosomes in the GnomAD database, with no homozygous occurrence. In-silico tool predicts a benign outcome for this variant. 16/22 in silico tools predict a benign outcome for this variant. 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. D379G) has been classified as Uncertain significance.

Genes affected
NEK1 (HGNC:7744): (NIMA related kinase 1) The protein encoded by this gene is a serine/threonine kinase involved in cell cycle regulation. The encoded protein is found in a centrosomal complex with FEZ1, a neuronal protein that plays a role in axonal development. Defects in this gene are a cause of polycystic kidney disease (PKD). Several transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been found for this gene. [provided by RefSeq, Dec 2010]

NEK1-related disorder Uncertain:1

PreventionGenetics, part of Exact Sciences
Significance:Uncertain significance
Review Status:no assertion criteria provided
Collection Method:clinical testing

The NEK1 c.1137T>A variant is predicted to result in the amino acid substitution p.Asp379Glu. This variant was reported in a control individual in a study of patients with motor neuron disease; to our knowledge, it has not been reported in any affected individuals (Supplementary Table 4 in Black et al. 2016. PubMed ID: 28089114). This variant is reported in 0.026% of alleles in individuals of European (Non-Finnish) descent in gnomAD. At this time, the clinical significance of this variant is uncertain due to the absence of conclusive functional and genetic evidence. -

Short-rib thoracic dysplasia 6 with or without polydactyly Uncertain:1
Nov 27, 2024
Labcorp Genetics (formerly Invitae), Labcorp
Significance:Uncertain significance
Review Status:criteria provided, single submitter
Collection Method:clinical testing

This sequence change replaces aspartic acid, which is acidic and polar, with glutamic acid, which is acidic and polar, at codon 379 of the NEK1 protein (p.Asp379Glu). This variant is present in population databases (rs372585344, gnomAD 0.03%). This variant has not been reported in the literature in individuals affected with NEK1-related conditions. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 266047). Invitae Evidence Modeling of protein sequence and biophysical properties (such as structural, functional, and spatial information, amino acid conservation, physicochemical variation, residue mobility, and thermodynamic stability) indicates that this missense variant is not expected to disrupt NEK1 protein function with a negative predictive value of 95%. 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. -

Amyotrophic lateral sclerosis, susceptibility to, 24 Uncertain:1

ARUP Laboratories, Molecular Genetics and Genomics, ARUP Laboratories
Significance:Uncertain significance
Review Status:criteria provided, single submitter
Collection Method:clinical testing

The NEK1 c.1137T>A; p.Asp379Glu variant (rs372585344), to our knowledge, is not described in the medical literature but contains an entry in ClinVar (Variation ID: 266047). It is observed in the Non-Finnish European population at an overall frequency of 0.027% (34/125486 alleles) in the Genome Aggregation Database. The aspartic acid 379 is highly conserved (Alamut v.2.11), however several species have glutamic acid at this position, suggesting that this amino acid change may be evolutionary tolerated. Further, computational algorithms (PolyPhen-2, SIFT) predict that this variant is tolerated. However, due to the lack of clinical and functional data regarding this variant, its clinical significance cannot be determined with certainty. -
