Genes affected
NEXN (HGNC:29557): (nexilin F-actin binding protein) This gene encodes a filamentous actin-binding protein that may function in cell adhesion and migration. Mutations in this gene have been associated with dilated cardiomyopathy, also known as CMD1CC. Alternatively spliced transcript variants have been described.[provided by RefSeq, Feb 2010]

ACMG classification

Classification was made for transcript

Our verdict: Likely_benign. The variant received -5 ACMG points.

BS1
Variant frequency is greater than expected in population sas. GnomAd4 allele frequency = 0.0000395 (6/152028) while in subpopulation SAS AF = 0.000622 (3/4826). AF 95% confidence interval is 0.000169. There are 0 homozygotes in GnomAd4. There are 2 alleles in the male GnomAd4 subpopulation. Median coverage is 32. This position passed quality control check. Existence of Clinvar submissions makes me limit the strength of this signal to Supporting
BS2
High AC in GnomAd4 at 6 AD gene.

Significance:Uncertain significance
Review Status:criteria provided, single submitter
Collection Method:clinical testing

This variant, c.995_997del, results in the deletion of 1 amino acid(s) of the NEXN protein (p.Glu332del), but otherwise preserves the integrity of the reading frame. This variant is present in population databases (rs751883872, gnomAD 0.06%). This variant has been observed in individual(s) with cardiomyopathy (PMID: 28611029). This variant is also known as c.987_989delAGA (p.Ala329_Glu330delinsAla). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 179783). 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. -

The p.Glu332del variant in NEXN has been identified by our laboratory in 1 Cauca sian adult with HCM. This variant has also been identified in 12/16490 of South Asian chromosomes by the Exome Aggregation Consortium (ExAC, http://exac.broadin stitute.org; dbSNP rs727505124). This variant is a deletion of 1 amino acid at p osition 332 and is not predicted to alter the protein reading-frame. It is uncle ar if this deletion will impact the protein. In summary, the clinical significan ce of the p.Glu332del variant is uncertain. -

Significance:Likely benign
Review Status:criteria provided, single submitter
Collection Method:clinical testing

This alteration is classified as likely benign based on a combination of the following: seen in unaffected individuals, population frequency, intact protein function, lack of segregation with disease, co-occurrence, RNA analysis, in silico models, amino acid conservation, lack of disease association in case-control studies, and/or the mechanism of disease or impacted region is inconsistent with a known cause of pathogenicity. -
