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 was made for transcript

Our verdict: Benign. The variant received -18 ACMG points.

BP4
Computational evidence support a benign effect (BayesDel_noAF=-0.36).
BP6
Variant 8-24955849-G-A is Benign according to our data. Variant chr8-24955849-G-A is described in ClinVar as Benign/Likely_benign. ClinVar VariationId is 66696.Status of the report is criteria_provided_multiple_submitters_no_conflicts, 2 stars.
BS1
Variant frequency is greater than expected in population nfe. GnomAd4 allele frequency = 0.00474 (721/152198) while in subpopulation NFE AF = 0.00691 (470/67992). AF 95% confidence interval is 0.0064. There are 4 homozygotes in GnomAd4. There are 368 alleles in the male GnomAd4 subpopulation. Median coverage is 32. This position passed quality control check.
BS2
High Homozygotes in GnomAd4 at 4 AD,AR gene
