c.1806A>G
p.Glu602=
synonymous · exon 16

NF1 encodes neurofibromin, a tumor suppressor protein that negatively regulates the RAS signal transduction pathway. As a GTPase-activating protein, it helps switch RAS proteins from their active to inactive state, keeping cell growth in check; loss of NF1 function leaves RAS overactive and drives downstream growth pathways such as MAPK/ERK and PI3K. Inherited changes in NF1 cause the cancer-predisposition syndrome neurofibromatosis type 1, and are also linked to juvenile myelomonocytic leukemia and Watson syndrome. Somatic changes in NF1 are found in many tumor types, including breast cancer, melanoma, and glioma.

This variant

This NF1 variant occurs in a gene encoding neurofibromin, a RAS-pathway tumor suppressor whose loss of function contributes to neurofibromatosis type 1 and related cancer predisposition.

VUS: BP7 (supporting) is the only applied criterion; no pathogenic, likely pathogenic, benign, or likely benign ACMG combination is met.
Classification rationale
BP7 VUS
NF1 c.1806A>G synonymous · exon 16

VUS: BP7 supporting is met because synonymous p.Glu602= has SpliceAI maximum delta 0.078, below the 0.1 cutoff.

LYFE Sciences is an AI system, and it can make mistakes. Criteria may be applied incorrectly, sources may be misread, and a confident-looking classification can still be wrong. Double-check every criterion and its underlying evidence before relying on any call.

Met, supporting: synonymous p.Glu602= with SpliceAI maximum delta 0.078 below the <=0.1 no-significant-splice-impact cutoff.
The case variant is synonymous: NM_001042492.2:c.1806A>G, NP_001035957.1:p.(Glu602=).SpliceAI reports DS_AG 0.078, DS_DG 0.047, DS_AL 0.0, DS_DL 0.0, with maximum delta score 0.078.The supplied generic SpliceAI calibration defines <=0.1 as the recommended no-significant-splice-impact threshold for benign computational evidence; this calibration is attributed to Jaganathan et al. 2019 (PMID:30661751).

Pathogenic
PS2 Not assessed: no documented parental genotypes or confirmed de novo occurrence are available for NM_001042492.2:c.1806A>G.
PS3 Not assessed: no validated RNA, protein, or cellular assay directly evaluates NF1 c.1806A>G (p.Glu602=).
PS4 Not assessed: no exact-variant case-control enrichment, affected-case series, or odds ratio is available for NM_001042492.2:c.1806A>G.
PM2 Not met: the highest ancestry-specific allele frequency is 1.01764e-04, exceeding the generic PM2 cutoff of 0.0001.
PM6 Not assessed: no affected individual with this exact variant is documented as apparently de novo without parental testing.
PP1 Not assessed: no affected relatives, informative meioses, or family segregation data are reported for this exact variant.
PP4 Not assessed: no proband phenotype or highly specific NF1 clinical presentation is documented for this variant.
PP5 Not met: ClinVar shows 0 expert-panel submissions, and the exact-variant record contains no expert-panel Pathogenic or Likely pathogenic classification.
Benign
BA1 Not met: the highest observed allele frequency is 1.01764e-04, far below the generic BA1 threshold of 0.05.
BS1 Not met: the highest observed allele frequency is 1.01764e-04, below the generic BS1 threshold of 0.01.
BS2 Not assessed: gnomAD shows carriers but provides no documented unaffected adult status or phenotype assessment to satisfy BS2.
BS3 Not assessed: no validated assay demonstrates normal NF1 function for c.1806A>G (p.Glu602=).
BS4 Not assessed: no confirmed variant-positive unaffected relatives with reliable age-appropriate phenotyping are documented.
BP2 Not assessed: no affected-proband co-occurrence or cis/trans phase data with a pathogenic variant are documented for c.1806A>G.
BP5 Not assessed: no affected individual with this variant and a separate pathogenic explanation, or BP5-specific likelihood ratio, is documented.
BP6 Not met: ClinVar shows 0 expert-panel submissions, so non-expert Benign and Likely benign assertions cannot trigger BP6.
