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]

This sequence change replaces leucine, which is neutral and non-polar, with valine, which is neutral and non-polar, at codon 73 of the NEFL protein (p.Leu73Val). This variant is present in population databases (rs755889503, gnomAD 0.01%). This variant has not been reported in the literature in individuals affected with NEFL-related conditions. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 533515). 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 NEFL protein function. 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. -

In silico analysis, which includes splice predictors and evolutionary conservation, suggests this variant may impact gene splicing. In the absence of RNA/functional studies, the actual effect of this sequence change is unknown.; Has not been previously published as pathogenic or benign to our knowledge -
