Genes affected
NF1 (HGNC:7765): (neurofibromin 1) This gene product appears to function as a negative regulator of the ras signal transduction pathway. Mutations in this gene have been linked to neurofibromatosis type 1, juvenile myelomonocytic leukemia and Watson syndrome. The mRNA for this gene is subject to RNA editing (CGA>UGA->Arg1306Term) resulting in premature translation termination. Alternatively spliced transcript variants encoding different isoforms have also been described for this gene. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]

ACMG classification

Classification made for transcript

Verdict is Likely_benign. Variant got -1 ACMG points.

BS2
High AC in GnomAdExome4 at 10 AD gene. Variant has AC lower than other variant known as pathogenic in the gene, so the strength is limited to Supporting.

Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingLabcorp Genetics (formerly Invitae), LabcorpJan 25, 2024This sequence change falls in intron 34 of the NF1 gene. It does not directly change the encoded amino acid sequence of the NF1 protein. RNA analysis indicates that this variant induces altered splicing and likely results in a shortened protein product. This variant is present in population databases (rs781147524, gnomAD 0.002%). This variant has not been reported in the literature in individuals affected with NF1-related conditions. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 220183). Variants that disrupt the consensus splice site are a relatively common cause of aberrant splicing (PMID: 17576681, 9536098). Studies have shown that this variant results in skipping of exon 34, but is expected to preserve the integrity of the reading-frame (Invitae). 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. -

Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingGeneDxApr 16, 2022Has not been previously published as pathogenic or benign to our knowledge; In-silico analysis is inconclusive as to whether the variant alters gene splicing.

Hereditary cancer-predisposing syndrome;CN230736:Cardiovascular phenotype Uncertain:1
Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingAmbry GeneticsOct 12, 2022The c.4661+3A>G intronic alteration consists of a A to G substitution nucleotides after coding exon 34 in the NF1 gene. Based on insufficient or conflicting evidence, the clinical significance of this alteration remains unclear. -
Hereditary cancer-predisposing syndrome Uncertain:1
Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingAmbry GeneticsDec 08, 2015The c.4724+3A>G intronic variant results from an A to G substitution 3 nucleotides after coding exon 35 in the NF1 gene. This variant was not reported in population based cohorts in the following databases: Database of Single Nucleotide Polymorphisms (dbSNP), NHLBI Exome Sequencing Project (ESP), and 1000 Genomes Project. In the ESP, this variant was not observed in 6503 samples (13006 alleles) with coverage at this position. To date, this alteration has been detected with an allele frequency of approximately 0.002% (greater than 110000 alleles tested) in our clinical cohort. This nucleotide position is well conserved in available vertebrate species. Using two different splice site prediction tools, this alteration is predicted by BDGP to abolish the native donor splice site, but is not predicted to have a deleterious effect on this donor splice site by ESEfinder; however, direct evidence is unavailable. Since supporting evidence is limited at this time, the clinical significance of c.4724+3A>G remains unclear. -
