Variant summary
Our verdict is Pathogenic. The variant received 10 ACMG points: 10P and 0B. PVS1PP5_Moderate
The NM_001199397.3(NEK1):c.379C>T(p.Arg127*) variant causes a stop gained change involving the alteration of a non-conserved nucleotide. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 0.00000903 in 1,440,308 control chromosomes in the GnomAD database, with no homozygous occurrence. In-silico tool predicts a pathogenic outcome for this variant. Variant has been reported in ClinVar as Likely pathogenic (★). Variant results in nonsense mediated mRNA decay.

Nonsense variant predicted to result in protein truncation or nonsense mediated decay in a gene for which loss of function is a known mechanism of disease; This variant is associated with the following publications: (PMID: 25525159, 34426522, 31589614, 37223130, 21211617, 24884844) -
NEK1-related disorder    Pathogenic:1 
The NEK1 c.379C>T variant is predicted to result in premature protein termination (p.Arg127*). This variant was reported in the homozygous state in an individual(s) with short rib-polydactyly syndrome, Majewski type (Thiel et al 2011. PubMed ID: 21211617; El Hokayem J et al 2012. PubMed ID: 22499340). However, the parents and siblings of the probands, who were heterozygous for this variant, were not reported to have any features of amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS, Thiel et al 2011. PubMed ID: 21211617). This variant is reported in 0.0061% of alleles in individuals of European (Non-Finnish) descent in gnomAD (http://gnomad.broadinstitute.org/variant/4-170511894-G-A). Nonsense variants in NEK1 are expected to be pathogenic and there have been protein-truncating variants upstream and downstream of this variant reported in individuals with ALS (HGMD, ClinVar). This variant is interpreted as likely pathogenic and may display incomplete penetrance. -
