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]

This sequence change replaces arginine, which is basic and polar, with glutamine, which is neutral and polar, at codon 1849 of the NF1 protein (p.Arg1849Gln). RNA analysis indicates that this missense change induces altered splicing and may result in an absent or altered protein product. This variant is not present in population databases (gnomAD no frequency). This missense change has been observed in individuals with neurofibromatosis 1 (NF1) (PMID: 10607834, 10712197, 10862084, 10980545, 11857752, 12807981, 18484666, 18546366, 23668869, 23913538, 24932921, 25325900). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 185354). An algorithm developed to predict the effect of missense changes on protein structure and function (PolyPhen-2) suggests that this variant is likely to be disruptive. Variants that disrupt the consensus splice site are a relatively common cause of aberrant splicing (PMID: 17576681, 9536098). Studies have shown that this missense change results in skipping of exon 37, also known as exon 29, and produces a non-functional protein and/or introduces a premature termination codon (PMID: 10607834, 10980545; internal data). For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. -

The variant is not observed in the gnomAD v2.1.1 dataset. Missense variant: previously reported to alter splicing and result in a loss of normal protein fucnction through nonsense-mediated decay (NMD) or protein truncation (PMID:. 10607834. Predicted Consequence/Location:). Same nucleotide change resulting in same amino acid change has been previously reported as pathogenic/likely pathogenic with strong evidence (ClinVar ID: VCV000185354). The variant has been observed in multiple (>3) similarly affected unrelated individuals (PMID: 10862084, 10980545, 12807981, 25325900, 29673180, 31776437). A different missense change at the same codon (p.Arg1870Leu) has been reported to be associated with NF1 related disorder (ClinVar ID: VCV001070186). Therefore, this variant is classified as pathogenic according to the recommendation of ACMG/AMP guideline. -

The c.5546G>A (p.R1849Q) alteration is located in coding exon 37 of the NF1 gene. This alteration results from a G to A substitution at nucleotide position 5546, causing the arginine (R) at amino acid position 1849 to be replaced by a glutamine (Q). This change occurs in the last base pair of coding exon37, which makes it likely to have some effect on normal mRNA splicing. This variant was not reported in population-based cohorts in the Genome Aggregation Database (gnomAD). This variant has been detected in multiple individuals with a clinical diagnosis of neurofibromatosis type 1 (Ars, 2000; Rübben, 2006; Ko, 2013; Anastasaki, 2017; Palma Milla, 2018). This nucleotide position is highly conserved in available vertebrate species. This amino acid position is highly conserved in available vertebrate species. RNA studies have demonstrated that this variant results in skipping of coding exon 37 (Ars, 2000; Pros, 2006; Ambry internal data). In silico splice site analysis predicts that this alteration may weaken the native splice donor site. This amino acid alteration is predicted to be deleterious by in silico analysis. Based on the available evidence, this alteration is classified as pathogenic. -

The p.R1870Q pathogenic mutation (also known as c.5609G>A) is located in coding exon 38 of the NF1 gene. This pathogenic mutation results from a G to A substitution at nucleotide position 5609. The amino acid change results in an arginine to glutamine at codon 1870, an amino acid with highly similar properties. However, this change occurs in the last base pair of coding exon 38, which makes it likely to have some effect on normal mRNA splicing. This mutation was first described in one familial and two sporadic cases of neurofibromatosis type 1 (NF1). These researchers performed further functional studies and demonstrated a skipping of exon 38, leading to a truncated protein (Ars E, Hum. Mol. Genet. 2000 Jan; 9(2):237-47). This mutation was also identified in two unrelated individuals of Korean descent with NF1 (Ko JM, Pediatr. Neurol. 2013 Jun; 48(6):447-53) as well as in one family of Indonesian descent with NF1 (Rübben A, Mol. Cancer 2006 ; 5():36). 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 0.01% (greater than 55000 alleles tested) in our clinical cohort. Based on nucleotide sequence alignment, this position is completely 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 predicted to weaken (but not abolish) the efficacy of the native donor splice site by ESEfinder. In the published literature, this alteration is also referred to as c.5546G>A (R1849Q). Based on the available evidence, p.R1870Q is classified as a pathogenic mutation. -
