Genes affected

EFEMP2 (HGNC:3219): (EGF containing fibulin extracellular matrix protein 2) A large number of extracellular matrix proteins have been found to contain variations of the epidermal growth factor (EGF) domain and have been implicated in functions as diverse as blood coagulation, activation of complement and determination of cell fate during development. The protein encoded by this gene contains four EGF2 domains and six calcium-binding EGF2 domains. This gene is necessary for elastic fiber formation and connective tissue development. Defects in this gene are cause of an autosomal recessive cutis laxa syndrome. Alternatively spliced transcript variants have been identified for this gene. [provided by RefSeq, Jan 2011]

Significance:Uncertain significance

Review Status:criteria provided, single submitter

Collection Method:clinical testing

This sequence change replaces aspartic acid, which is acidic and polar, with glutamic acid, which is acidic and polar, at codon 116 of the EFEMP2 protein (p.Asp116Glu). This variant is present in population databases (rs376350227, gnomAD 0.04%). This variant has not been reported in the literature in individuals affected with EFEMP2-related conditions. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 582876). Algorithms developed to predict the effect of missense changes on protein structure and function are either unavailable or do not agree on the potential impact of this missense change (SIFT: "Deleterious"; PolyPhen-2: "Benign"; Align-GVGD: "Class C0"). 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.

Significance:Uncertain significance

Review Status:criteria provided, single submitter

Collection Method:clinical testing

The p.D116E variant (also known as c.348C>A), located in coding exon 3 of the EFEMP2 gene, results from a C to A substitution at nucleotide position 348. The aspartic acid at codon 116 is replaced by glutamic acid, an amino acid with highly similar properties. This amino acid position is well conserved in available vertebrate species. In addition, this alteration is predicted to be tolerated by in silico analysis. Since supporting evidence is limited at this time, the clinical significance of this alteration remains unclear.

Significance:Uncertain significance

Review Status:no assertion criteria provided

Collection Method:clinical testing

The EFEMP2 c.348C>A variant is predicted to result in the amino acid substitution p.Asp116Glu. To our knowledge, this variant has not been reported in the literature. This variant is reported in 0.040% of alleles in individuals of Latino descent in gnomAD. At this time, the clinical significance of this variant is uncertain due to the absence of conclusive functional and genetic evidence.
