RCV001008529 | SCV001168301 | pathogenic | not provided | 2019-01-22 | criteria provided, single submitter | clinical testing | The c.5743_5749delAAATCTA variant in the NF1 gene has not been previously reported to our knowledge. This variant causes a frameshift starting with codon Lysine 1915, changes this amino acid to a Valine residue and creates a premature Stop codon at position 4 of the new reading frame, denoted p.Lys1915ValfsX4. This variant is predicted to cause loss of normal protein function either through protein truncation or nonsense-mediated mRNA decay. The c.5743_5749delAAATCTA variant is not observed in large population cohorts (Lek et al., 2016). This variant was observed in our laboratory in an individual who was reported to meet clinical diagnostic criteria for neurofibromatosis type 1. In summary, we consider this variant to be pathogenic. |
