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]

ACMG classification

Our verdict: Uncertain_significance. The variant received 0 ACMG points.

• PP2: Missense variant in the gene, where a lot of missense mutations are associated with disease in ClinVar. The gene has 19 curated pathogenic missense variants (we use a threshold of 10). The gene has 5 curated benign missense variants. Trascript score misZ: 0.63774 (below the threshold of 3.09). GenCC associations: The gene is linked to Charcot-Marie-Tooth disease type 2B5, Charcot-Marie-Tooth disease type 2, Charcot-Marie-Tooth disease type 2E, Charcot-Marie-Tooth disease, Charcot-Marie-Tooth disease type 1F.
• BP4: Computational evidence support a benign effect (MetaRNN=0.28410983).
