Ambry Genetics RCV000215669 SCV000278330 pathogenic Hereditary cancer-predisposing syndrome 2015-09-16 criteria provided, single submitter clinical testing The p.W1997* pathogenic mutation (also known as c.5991G>A), located in coding exon 40 of the NF1 gene, results from a G to A substitution at nucleotide position 5991. This changes the amino acid from a tryptophan to a stop codon within coding exon 40. This variant has been seen as somatic mutation in a tumor from one patient with neurofibromatosis with a germline NF1 microdeletion and one patient with a reportedly sporadic pheochromocytoma (Laycock-van Spyk S et al. Hum. Genomics 2011 Oct; 5(6):623-90; Thomas L et al. Eur. J. Hum. Genet. 2012 Apr; 20(4):411-9; Welander J et al.J. Clin. Endocrinol. Metab. 2014 Jul; 99(7):E1352-60; Stenman A et al. Endocr. Pathol. 2015 Mar; 26(1):9-14). In addition to the data presented in the literature, since premature stop codons are typically deleterious in nature, this alteration is interpreted as a disease-causing mutation (ACMG Recommendations for Standards for Interpretation and Reporting of Sequence Variations. Revision 2007. Genet Med. 2008;10:294).

Invitae RCV000660089 SCV001387032 pathogenic Neurofibromatosis, type 1 2023-04-26 criteria provided, single submitter clinical testing ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 233869). This premature translational stop signal has been observed in individual(s) with clinical features of neurofibromatosis, type 1 (PMID: 30014477, 31370276). In at least one individual the variant was observed to be de novo. This variant is not present in population databases (gnomAD no frequency). This sequence change creates a premature translational stop signal (p.Trp1976*) 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). For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic.
