Invitae | RCV000468514 | SCV000563794 | uncertain significance | Neurofibromatosis, type 1 | 2016-12-24 | criteria provided, single submitter | clinical testing | This variant is a gross duplication of the genomic region encompassing exon 57 of the NF1 gene. The 5' boundary is likely confined to intron 56. The 3' end of this event is unknown as it extends beyond the assayed region for this gene and therefore may encompass additional genes. While the exact position of the duplicated exon cannot be determined from this data, the duplicated copy of this region is likely in tandem and in-frame, therefore preserving the integrity of the reading frame. This variant has not been reported in the literature in individuals with an NF1-related disease. Experimental studies and prediction algorithms are not available for this variant, and the functional significance of the duplicated amino acids is currently unknown. In summary, the exact genomic location of this variant is unknown and the impact of this duplication on NF1 protein function has not been established. Therefore, it has been classified as a Variant of Unknown Significance. |
