This variant affects the canonical splice acceptor site of CBL intron 7 (c.1096-1G>T), disrupting the AG dinucleotide at position -1. Germline loss-of-function variants in CBL are an established disease mechanism for CBL mutation-associated syndrome (a RASopathy with predisposition to JMML). SpliceAI predicts acceptor loss with a max delta score of 0.99. Under ClinGen SVI PVS1 recommendations (PMC6185798), canonical ±1,2 splice site variants in genes with an established LoF mechanism are assigned PVS1 at full strength.
NM_005188.3:c.1096-1G>T has been observed as a de novo occurrence in two unrelated individuals with features consistent with CBL-related RASopathy, with confirmed paternity in both cases. Martinelli et al. (2015) reported this variant as de novo in a sporadic case (patient 827-10) with parental DNA confirmation. Seaby et al. (2017) reported the same variant as de novo in a child with atypical hemolytic uremic syndrome and RASopathy features.
A minigene assay performed by Martinelli et al. (2015) demonstrated that c.1096-1G>T results in aberrant splicing with complete skipping of exon 8, which encodes essential regions of the linker region and RING finger domain. This well-established in vitro functional assay confirms a damaging effect on mRNA processing and protein function. Applied at supporting level because this evidence confirms the null effect already captured by PVS1 rather than providing independent functional evidence of a distinct mechanism.
The c.1096-1G>T variant affects splicing of exon 8, which encodes the linker region and RING finger domain of CBL. Exons 8 and 9 are well-established mutational hotspots: approximately 50% of germline CBL mutations affect Tyr371 within this region, and splice site mutations affecting introns 7 and 8 account for approximately 10% of CBL defects in myeloid malignancies. The affected region is a critical functional domain with a high density of pathogenic variants and no benign variation.
NM_005188.3:c.1096-1G>T is absent from gnomAD v2.1 and gnomAD-Canada v1.0. In gnomAD v4.1, it is observed in a single heterozygous carrier (1/1,590,474 alleles; AF = 6.29e-07, ~0.00006%), well below the PM2 threshold of 0.1%. The variant is absent from all subpopulations except European (non-Finnish) where it is present in 1/1,159,346 alleles.
NM_005188.3:c.1096-1G>T is classified as Pathogenic in ClinVar (Variation ID: 180815) by five clinical laboratories (GeneDx, Laboratory for Molecular Medicine, Ambry Genetics, Invitae/Labcorp, and King Faisal Specialist Hospital). While the review status is 'criteria provided, single submitter' and no expert panel review is available, multiple independent clinical laboratories have reached the same conclusion based on overlapping evidence.
No benign criterion marked as applied in the recorded assessment.
gene-specific framework lacked a usable explicit final combination framework, so generic ACMG/AMP 2015 final-combination rules were applied as fallback; applied criteria: PVS1 very strong, PS2 strong, PS3 supporting, PM1 moderate, PM2 supporting, PP5 supporting; combination = 1 very strong + 1 strong + 1 moderate + 3 supporting, which maps to Pathogenic.

NM_005188.3:c.1096-1G>T is a canonical splice acceptor variant in CBL, disrupting the AG dinucleotide at the intron 7 / exon 8 boundary.
CBL loss-of-function is an established disease mechanism for a RASopathy phenotype with predisposition to juvenile myelomonocytic leukemia (CBL mutation-associated syndrome).
The variant has been observed as a de novo occurrence in two unrelated individuals with features consistent with CBL-related RASopathy, with confirmed paternity in both cases.
A minigene assay demonstrated that c.1096-1G>T results in complete skipping of exon 8, which encodes the linker region and RING finger domain critical for CBL E3 ubiquitin ligase function.
The variant affects the RING finger domain / linker region (exons 8-9), a well-established mutational hotspot where approximately 50% of germline CBL mutations cluster and no benign variation is observed.
The variant is extremely rare in population databases: absent from gnomAD v2.1 and gnomAD-Canada, and observed in a single heterozygous carrier in gnomAD v4.1 (1/1,590,474 alleles; AF = 0.00006%).
This variant is classified as Pathogenic in ClinVar (Variation ID: 180815) by five independent clinical laboratories.
Applying generic ACMG/AMP 2015 combination rules: PVS1 (very_strong) + PS2 (strong) + PM1 (moderate) + PS3 (supporting) + PM2 (supporting) + PP5 (supporting) is sufficient for a Pathogenic classification.
