Genes affected
NEB (HGNC:7720): (nebulin) This gene encodes nebulin, a giant protein component of the cytoskeletal matrix that coexists with the thick and thin filaments within the sarcomeres of skeletal muscle. In most vertebrates, nebulin accounts for 3 to 4% of the total myofibrillar protein. The encoded protein contains approximately 30-amino acid long modules that can be classified into 7 types and other repeated modules. Protein isoform sizes vary from 600 to 800 kD due to alternative splicing that is tissue-, species-,and developmental stage-specific. Of the 183 exons in the nebulin gene, at least 43 are alternatively spliced, although exons 143 and 144 are not found in the same transcript. Of the several thousand transcript variants predicted for nebulin, the RefSeq Project has decided to create three representative RefSeq records. Mutations in this gene are associated with recessive nemaline myopathy. [provided by RefSeq, Sep 2009]
RIF1 (HGNC:23207): (replication timing regulatory factor 1) This gene encodes a protein that shares homology with the yeast teleomere binding protein, Rap1 interacting factor 1. This protein localizes to aberrant telomeres may be involved in DNA repair. Alternate splicing results in multiple transcript variants. [provided by RefSeq, Apr 2010]

Nemaline myopathy 2 Pathogenic:2Uncertain:1

Labcorp Genetics (formerly Invitae), Labcorp
Significance: Pathogenic
Review Status: criteria provided, single submitter
Collection Method: clinical testing

This sequence change creates a premature translational stop signal (p.Pro8025Serfs*154) 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 (rs756384471, gnomAD 0.02%). This variant has not been reported in the literature in individuals affected with NEB-related conditions. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 465574). For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. -

Nemaline myopathy Pathogenic:1Uncertain:1
Feb 26, 2025
Broad Center for Mendelian Genomics, Broad Institute of MIT and Harvard
Significance: Uncertain significance
Review Status: criteria provided, single submitter
Collection Method: curation

The p.Pro7990SerfsTer154 variant in NEB has not been previously reported in the literature in individuals with nemaline myopathy, but has been identified in 0.02% (15/72756) of African/African American chromosomes by the Genome Aggregation Database (gnomAD, http://gnomad.broadinstitute.org; dbSNP ID: rs756384471). Although this variant has been seen in the general population in a heterozygous state, its frequency is not high enough to rule out a pathogenic role. This variant has also been reported in ClinVar (Variation ID: 465574) and has been interpreted as pathogenic by Invitae and the Center of Excellence for Medical Genomics (Chulalongkorn University), and as a variant of uncertain significance by Counsyl. This variant is predicted to cause a frameshift, which alters the protein’s amino acid sequence beginning at position 7990 and leads to a premature termination codon 154 amino acids downstream. This alteration is then predicted to lead to a truncated or absent protein. Loss of function of the NEB gene is an established disease mechanism in autosomal recessive nemaline myopathy. In summary, while there is some suspicion for a pathogenic role, the clinical significance of this variant is uncertain. ACMG/AMP Criteria applied: PVS1 (Richards 2015). -

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

Variant summary: NEB c.24072_24075delACCT (p.Pro8025SerfsX154) 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. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 6.5e-06 in 154190 control chromosomes. c.24072_24075delACCT has been reported in the literature in individual(s) affected with congenital myopathies (example: Summa_2023). To our knowledge, no experimental evidence demonstrating an impact on protein function has been reported. The following publication have been ascertained in the context of this evaluation (PMID: 36697461). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 465574). Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as pathogenic. -
