Variant summary
Our verdict is Pathogenic. The variant received 16 ACMG points: 16P and 0B. PVS1PP5_Very_Strong
The NM_001164507.2(NEB):c.20659C>T(p.Arg6887*) variant causes a stop gained change involving the alteration of a non-conserved nucleotide. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 0.0000062 in 1,612,446 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 (★★). Synonymous variant affecting the same amino acid position (i.e. R6887R) has been classified as Likely benign. Variant results in nonsense mediated mRNA decay.

Nemaline myopathy 2 Pathogenic:2
This sequence change creates a premature translational stop signal (p.Arg6887*) in the NEB gene. It is expected to result in an absent or disrupted protein product. Loss-of-function variants in NEB are known to be pathogenic (PMID: 25205138). This variant is present in population databases (rs749452641, gnomAD 0.005%). This premature translational stop signal has been observed in individual(s) with nemaline myopathy (PMID: 25205138). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 557888). Algorithms developed to predict the effect of sequence changes on RNA splicing suggest that this variant may disrupt the consensus splice site. For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. -

Inborn genetic diseases Pathogenic:1
The c.15556C>T (p.R5186*) alteration, located in exon 109 (coding exon 107) of the NEB gene, consists of a C to T substitution at nucleotide position 15556. This changes the amino acid from an arginine (R) to a stop codon at amino acid position 5186. This alteration is expected to result in loss of function by premature protein truncation or nonsense-mediated mRNA decay. Based on data from gnomAD, the T allele has an overall frequency of 0.001% (2/279302) total alleles studied. The highest observed frequency was 0.005% (1/19474) of East Asian alleles. Based on the available evidence, this alteration is classified as pathogenic. -
Nemaline myopathy Pathogenic:1
Variant summary: NEB c.20659C>T (p.Arg6887X) results in a premature termination codon, predicted to cause a truncation of the encoded protein or absence of the protein due to nonsense mediated decay, which are commonly known mechanisms for disease. Truncations downstream of this position have been classified as pathogenic by our laboratory (e.g. c.21076C>T (p.Arg7026X), c.24407_24410dupTGTT (p.Leu8137fsX18), c.24559C>T (p.Arg8187X)). The variant allele was found at a frequency of 7.2e-06 in 275868 control chromosomes (gnomAD). c.20659C>T has been reported in the literature in a family affected with Nemaline Myopathy 2 (Lehtokari 2014). To our knowledge, no experimental evidence demonstrating an impact on protein function has been reported. One clinical diagnostic laboratory has submitted clinical-significance assessments for this variant to ClinVar after 2014 without evidence for independent evaluation, and classified the variant as likely pathogenic. Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as likely pathogenic. -
