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]

Dilated cardiomyopathy 1CC;C3151267:Hypertrophic cardiomyopathy 20 Uncertain:2
Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingInvitaeNov 07, 2023This sequence change replaces arginine, which is basic and polar, with histidine, which is basic and polar, at codon 279 of the NEXN protein (p.Arg279His). This variant is present in population databases (rs750349053, gnomAD 0.009%). This missense change has been observed in individual(s) with sudden unexplained death (PMID: 29247119). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 229059). Advanced modeling of protein sequence and biophysical properties (such as structural, functional, and spatial information, amino acid conservation, physicochemical variation, residue mobility, and thermodynamic stability) performed at Invitae indicates that this missense variant is not expected to disrupt NEXN protein function with a negative predictive value of 80%. 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. -

Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingLaboratory for Molecular Medicine, Mass General Brigham Personalized MedicineFeb 12, 2015The p.Arg279His variant in NEXN has not been previously reported in individuals with cardiomyopathy, but has been identified in 1/65886 of European chromosomes and 1/11492 of Latino chromosomes by the Exome Aggregation Consortium (ExAC, htt p://exac.broadinstitute.org). Computational prediction tools and conservation an alysis do not provide strong support for or against an impact to the protein. In summary, the clinical significance of the p.Arg279His variant is uncertain. -

Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingARUP Laboratories, Molecular Genetics and Genomics, ARUP LaboratoriesSep 08, 2023The NEXN c.836G>A; p.Arg279His variant (rs750349053) is reported in the literature in a cohort of individuals with sudden unexpected death, although its clinical significance was not demonstrated (Lin 2017). This variant is found in the general population with a low overall allele frequency of 0.002% (5/248,420 alleles) in the Genome Aggregation Database. Computational analyses are uncertain whether this variant is neutral or deleterious (REVEL: 0.174). Given the lack of clinical and functional data, the significance of the p.Arg279His variant is uncertain at this time. References: Lin Y et al. Applying High-Resolution Variant Classification to Cardiac Arrhythmogenic Gene Testing in a Demographically Diverse Cohort of Sudden Unexplained Deaths. Circ Cardiovasc Genet. 2017 Dec;10(6):e001839.

Cardiovascular phenotype Uncertain:1
Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingAmbry GeneticsNov 05, 2022The p.R279H variant (also known as c.836G>A), located in coding exon 7 of the NEXN gene, results from a G to A substitution at nucleotide position 836. The arginine at codon 279 is replaced by histidine, an amino acid with highly similar properties. This alteration has been reported in a sudden unexplained death cohort (Lin Y et al. Circ Cardiovasc Genet, 2017 Dec;10:). This amino acid position is well conserved in available vertebrate species. In addition, the in silico prediction for this alteration is inconclusive. Since supporting evidence is limited at this time, the clinical significance of this alteration remains unclear. -
