Variant summary

Our verdict is Pathogenic. Variant got 18 ACMG points: 18P and 0B. PVS1 PM2 PP5_Very_Strong

The NM_001042492.3(NF1):​c.1738del​(p.Tyr580ThrfsTer6) variant causes a frameshift change involving the alteration of a conserved nucleotide. The variant was absent in control chromosomes in GnomAD project. Variant has been reported in ClinVar as Likely pathogenic (★★). Synonymous variant affecting the same amino acid position (i.e. L578L) has been classified as Likely benign. Variant results in nonsense mediated mRNA decay.

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

Verdict is Pathogenic. Variant got 18 ACMG points.

• PVS1: Loss of function variant, product undergoes nonsense mediated mRNA decay. LoF is a known mechanism of disease.
• PM2: Very rare variant in population databases, with high coverage
• PP5: Variant 17-31223454-CT-C is Pathogenic according to our data. Variant chr17-31223454-CT-C is described in ClinVar as [Likely_pathogenic]. Clinvar id is 996444.Status of the report is criteria_provided_multiple_submitters_no_conflicts, 2 stars. Variant chr17-31223454-CT-C is described in Lovd as [Pathogenic].

Likely pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitter	clinical testing	Genome-Nilou Lab	Mar 15, 2022	- -
Likely pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitter	clinical testing	Genome Diagnostics Laboratory, The Hospital for Sick Children	Oct 26, 2020	- -
Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitter	clinical testing	3billion	May 22, 2022	The variant is not observed in the gnomAD v2.1.1 dataset. Frameshift: predicted to result in a loss or disruption of normal protein function through nonsense-mediated decay (NMD) or protein truncation. Multiple pathogenic variants are reported downstream of the variant. The variant has been reported at least twice as pathogenic with clinical assertions and evidence for the classification (ClinVar ID: VCV000996444). Therefore, this variant is classified as pathogenic according to the recommendation of ACMG/AMP guideline. -
Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitter	clinical testing	Labcorp Genetics (formerly Invitae), Labcorp	Aug 30, 2023	This premature translational stop signal has been observed in individual(s) with clinical features of NF1-related conditions (PMID: 21520333). For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 996444). This variant is not present in population databases (gnomAD no frequency). This sequence change creates a premature translational stop signal (p.Tyr580Thrfs*6) in the NF1 gene. It is expected to result in an absent or disrupted protein product. Loss-of-function variants in NF1 are known to be pathogenic (PMID: 10712197, 23913538). -
