Description

​The c.2970_2972delAAT pathogenic mutation (also known as p.M992del and delM992) is located in coding exon 22 of the NF1 gene. This alteration results from an in-frame AAT deletion between nucleotide positions 2970 and 2972. This results in the deletion of a highly conserved methionine residue at codon992. This alteration was first identified in two unrelated probands with paternally inherited neurofibromatosis type 1 (NF1) (Shen MH et al. Hum Mol Genet. 1993; 2(11):1861-4). Later studies suggest this mutation is associated with an attenuated form of NF1 similar to Legious syndrome; individuals with this mutation are not likely to develop neurofibromas (Upadhyaya M et al. Am J Hum Genet. 2007; 80(1):140-51). Based on the supporting evidence, c.2970_2972delAAT is interpreted as a disease-causing mutation.
