Genes affected

ACTA2 (HGNC:130): (actin alpha 2, smooth muscle) This gene encodes one of six different actin proteins. Actins are highly conserved proteins that are involved in cell motility, structure, integrity, and intercellular signaling. The encoded protein is a smooth muscle actin that is involved in vascular contractility and blood pressure homeostasis. Mutations in this gene cause a variety of vascular diseases, such as thoracic aortic disease, coronary artery disease, stroke, and Moyamoya disease, as well as multisystemic smooth muscle dysfunction syndrome.

STAMBPL1 (HGNC:24105): (STAM binding protein like 1) Predicted to enable Lys63-specific deubiquitinase activity and thiol-dependent deubiquitinase. Predicted to be involved in protein K63-linked deubiquitination. Located in membrane. [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Apr 2022]

ACMG classification

Verdict is Likely_pathogenic. Variant got 7 ACMG points.

The p.R185G variant (also known as c.553C>G), located in coding exon 5 of the ACTA2 gene, results from a C to G substitution at nucleotide position 553. The arginine at codon 185 is replaced by glycine, an amino acid with dissimilar properties. This amino acid position is highly conserved in available vertebrate species. In addition, this alteration is predicted to be deleterious by in silico analysis. Another alteration at the same codon, p.R185Q (c.554G>A), has been reported in a family with thoracic aortic aneurysms and dissections and premature coronary artery disease (Guo DC et al. Am. J. Hum. Genet., 2009 May;84:617-27). Since supporting evidence is limited at this time, the clinical significance of this alteration remains unclear. -

This sequence change replaces arginine with glycine at codon 185 of the ACTA2 protein (p.Arg185Gly). The arginine residue is highly conserved and there is a moderate physicochemical difference between arginine and glycine. In summary, the available evidence is currently insufficient to determine the role of this variant in disease. Therefore, it has been classified as a Variant of Uncertain Significance. Advanced modeling of protein sequence and biophysical properties (such as structural, functional, and spatial information, amino acid conservation, physicochemical variation, residue mobility, and thermodynamic stability) performed at Invitae indicates that this missense variant is expected to disrupt ACTA2 protein function. This variant has been observed in individual(s) with thoracic aortic aneurysm and dissection (PMID: 19409525). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 519577). This variant is not present in population databases (ExAC no frequency). -
