RCV001211467 | SCV001383008 | pathogenic | Neurofibromatosis, type 1 | 2019-09-15 | criteria provided, single submitter | clinical testing | For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. This sequence change affects an acceptor splice site in intron 41 of the NF1 gene. It is expected to disrupt RNA splicing and likely results in an absent or disrupted protein product. This variant is not present in population databases (ExAC no frequency). Disruption of this splice site has been observed in individuals affected with neurofibromatosis type 1 (PMID: 28961165, 26969325, 16835897). Algorithms developed to predict the effect of sequence changes on RNA splicing suggest that this variant may disrupt the consensus splice site, but this prediction has not been confirmed by published transcriptional studies. Donor and acceptor splice site variants typically lead to a loss of protein function (PMID: 16199547), and loss-of-function variants in NF1 are known to be pathogenic (PMID: 10712197, 23913538). |
