Variant summary
Our verdict is Likely benign. The variant received -5 ACMG points: 0P and 5B. BS1_SupportingBS2
The NM_144573.4(NEXN):c.620A>G(p.Asp207Gly) variant causes a missense change involving the alteration of a conserved nucleotide. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 0.0000316 in 1,613,904 control chromosomes in the GnomAD database, with no homozygous occurrence. In-silico tool predicts a benign outcome for this variant. Variant has been reported in ClinVar as Uncertain significance (★★). Synonymous variant affecting the same amino acid position (i.e. D207D) has been classified as Likely benign.

Dilated cardiomyopathy 1CC;C3151267:Hypertrophic cardiomyopathy 20    Uncertain:2 
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. Algorithms developed to predict the effect of sequence changes on RNA splicing suggest that this variant may create or strengthen a splice site. Algorithms developed to predict the effect of missense changes on protein structure and function are either unavailable or do not agree on the potential impact of this missense change (SIFT: "Deleterious"; PolyPhen-2: "Benign"; Align-GVGD: "Class C15"). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 520305). This missense change has been observed in individual(s) with hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (PMID: 25979592). This variant is present in population databases (rs570946423, gnomAD 0.006%). This sequence change replaces aspartic acid, which is acidic and polar, with glycine, which is neutral and non-polar, at codon 207 of the NEXN protein (p.Asp207Gly). -

Cardiovascular phenotype    Uncertain:1 
The p.D207G variant (also known as c.620A>G), located in coding exon 6 of the NEXN gene, results from an A to G substitution at nucleotide position 620. The aspartic acid at codon 207 is replaced by glycine, an amino acid with similar properties. In one study, this alteration was detected in an individual with hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HCM) who also had a variant in another cardiac-related gene (Waldmüller S et al. Mol. Cell. Probes. 2015;29:308-14). This amino acid position is well conserved in available vertebrate species. In addition, this alteration is predicted to be tolerated by in silico analysis. Since supporting evidence is limited at this time, the clinical significance of this alteration remains unclear. -
