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]

ACMG classification

Classification made for transcript

Verdict is Uncertain_significance. Variant got 4 ACMG points.

PVS1

Splicing +-2 bp (donor or acceptor) variant, product NOT destroyed by NMD, known LOF gene, truncates exone, which is 0.0042223786 fraction of the gene. Cryptic splice site detected, with MaxEntScore 3.3, offset of 17, new splice context is: tagGTgaag. Cryptic site results in frameshift change. If cryptic site found is not functional and variant results in exon loss, it results in inframe change.

PM2

Very rare variant in population databases, with high coverage;

Nemaline myopathy

Significance: Pathogenic

Review Status: criteria provided, single submitter

Collection Method: curation

The c.3987+1G>T variant in NEB has not been previously reported in the literature in individuals with nemaline myopathy, but has been identified in 0.004% (52/1178690) of European (non-Finnish) chromosomes by the Genome Aggregation Database (gnomAD, http://gnomad.broadinstitute.org; dbSNP ID: rs780022652). Although this variant has been seen in the general population in a heterozygous state, its frequency is low enough to be consistent with a recessive carrier frequency. This variant is located in the 5' splice region. SpliceAI predictions indicate use of an out-of-frame cryptic splice site 17 bases from the intron-exon boundary, providing evidence that this variant may cause a frameshift and lead to a premature termination codon downstream. This alteration is then predicted to lead to a truncated or absent protein. However, this information is not predictive enough to determine pathogenicity. One additional pathogenic variant, predicted to induce the same splicing effect as this variant, has been reported in ClinVar as being associated with nemaline myopathy, supporting that the c.3987+1G>T variant may be pathogenic (Variation ID: 371210). In summary, this variant meets criteria to be classified as pathogenic for autosomal recessive nemaline myopathy. ACMG/AMP Criteria applied: PVS1, PM2_Supporting, PS1_supporting (Richards 2015). -
