A conserved circadian function for the Neurofibromatosis 1 gene [PDF]
Cell Reports, 2018 Summary: Loss of the Neurofibromatosis 1 (Nf1) protein, neurofibromin, in Drosophila disrupts circadian rhythms of locomotor activity without impairing central clock function, suggesting effects downstream of the clock.

NF1 Gene and Neurofibromatosis 1 [PDF]
American Journal of Epidemiology, 2000 Neurofibromatosis 1 (NF1), also known as von Recklinghausen disease, is an autosomal dominant condition caused by mutations of the NF1 gene, which is located at chromosome 17q11.2. NF1 is believed to be completely penetrant, but substantial variability in expression of features occurs. Diagnosis of NF1 is based on established clinical criteria.

Impacts of NF1 Gene Mutations and Genetic Modifiers in Neurofibromatosis Type 1
Frontiers in Neurology, 2021 Neurofibromatosis type 1 (NF1) is a tumor predisposition genetic disorder that directly affects more than 1 in 3,000 individuals worldwide. It results from mutations of the NF1 gene and shows almost complete penetrance.
