RCV001009144 | SCV001168959 | pathogenic | not provided | 2018-12-10 | criteria provided, single submitter | clinical testing | The c.5838delA pathogenic variant in the NF1 gene causes a frameshift starting with codon Lysine 1946, changes this amino acid to an Asparagine residue and creates a premature Stop codon at position 12 of the new reading frame, denoted p.Lys1946AsnfsX12. This pathogenic variant is predicted to cause loss of normal protein function either through protein truncation or nonsense-mediated mRNA decay. This variant is not observed in large population cohorts (Lek et al., 2016). Although this pathogenic variant has not been previously reported to our knowledge, its presence is consistent with a molecular diagnosis of neurofibromatosis type 1. |
