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]

Nemaline myopathy 2 Pathogenic:2
Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingInvitaeDec 23, 2023This sequence change affects a donor splice site in intron 5 of the NEB gene. It is expected to disrupt RNA splicing. Variants that disrupt the donor or acceptor splice site typically lead to a loss of protein function (PMID: 16199547), and loss-of-function variants in NEB are known to be pathogenic (PMID: 25205138). This variant is present in population databases (rs773952935, gnomAD 0.03%). Disruption of this splice site has been observed in individual(s) with nemaline myopathy (PMID: 16917880). In at least one individual the data is consistent with being in trans (on the opposite chromosome) from a pathogenic variant. This variant is also known as g.5468T>C. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 287422). 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. -

Nemaline myopathy Pathogenic:1
Likely pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingWomen's Health and Genetics/Laboratory Corporation of America, LabCorpApr 29, 2019Variant summary: NEB c.294+2T>C is located in a canonical splice-site and is predicted to affect mRNA splicing resulting in a significantly altered protein due to either exon skipping, shortening, or inclusion of intronic material. Several computational tools predict a significant impact on normal splicing: four predict the variant abolishes a 5' splicing donor site. However, these predictions have yet to be confirmed by functional studies. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 4e-05 in 247568 control chromosomes (gnomAD). This frequency is not higher than expected for a pathogenic variant in NEB causing Nemaline Myopathy 2 (4e-05 vs 0.0035), allowing no conclusion about variant significance. c.294+2T>C has been reported in the literature in a compound heterozygous individual affected with Nemaline Myopathy 2, who carried another pathogenic variant in trans (Lehtokari 2006). Another variant affecting the same canonical splice donor site (c.294+1G>A) was reported in the same study to result in an in-frame skipping of exon 5 with the deletion of 72 amino acids (i.e. p.Thr27_Pro98del; based on cDNA sequence analysis of mRNA isolated from patient muscle biopsy sample); therefore it was predicted that the variant of interest would cause a similar splicing defect (Lehtokari 2006). Three ClinVar submission from clinical diagnostic laboratories (evaluation after 2014) cite the variant twice as likely pathogenic and once as pathogenic. Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as likely pathogenic. -
