Variant summary

Our verdict is Pathogenic. Variant got 12 ACMG points: 12P and 0B. PS3PS4PP4_ModeratePM2_SupportingPP3

This summary comes from the ClinGen Evidence Repository: The NM_000552.5(VWF):c.4022G>A (p.Arg1341Gln) variant in VWF has been reported in several dozen vWD type 2B patients. At least one (P8 of PMID:20118404) has sufficient information reported to meet the PP4_moderate criteria, including mucocutaneous bleeding, positive GOF assay, and loss of HMW multimers. An additional four have been curated for inclusion based on at least a LD-RIPA response (PMIDs: 20118404, 8292729; PS4_strong). In vitro studies have shown increased platelet binding in COS-7 cells and a VWF -/- mouse with R1306-vWF hydrodynamic expression recapitulated patient phenotypes (PS3). The Grpmax filtering allele frequency in gnomAD v4.1 is 2.800e-7 (based on 2/1179864 alleles in the European non-Finnish population), which is lower than the ClinGen VWD VCEP threshold of <0.0001 (PM2_Supporting). This variant is predicted deleterious by REVEL gives a score of 0.792, which is above the ClinGen VWD VCEP threshold of >0.644 (PP3). This variant has been observed segregating in multiple families, however insufficient phenotypic information has been reported on those individuals. In summary, this variant meets criteria to be classified as pathogenic for vWD type 2B with specified criteria PS3, PS4, PM2_supporting, PP3, and PP4_moderate.

Genes affected
VWF (HGNC:12726): (von Willebrand factor) This gene encodes a glycoprotein involved in hemostasis. The encoded preproprotein is proteolytically processed following assembly into large multimeric complexes. These complexes function in the adhesion of platelets to sites of vascular injury and the transport of various proteins in the blood. Mutations in this gene result in von Willebrand disease, an inherited bleeding disorder. An unprocessed pseudogene has been found on chromosome 22. [provided by RefSeq, Oct 2015]

The VWF c.4022G>A; p.Arg1341Gln variant (rs61749403), also known as Arg578Gln in the mature protein nomenclature, is reported in the literature in multiple individuals and families affected with von Willebrand disease (vWD) Type 2B (Ahmad 2014, Caron 2006, Cooney 1991, Federici 2009, Freitas 2019, Goodeve 2009, Nurden 2010, Piao 1993, Sadler 2022). This variant is reported in ClinVar (Variation ID: 291). This variant is only observed on one allele in the Genome Aggregation Database (v2.1.1), indicating it is not a common polymorphism. Additionally, at least one other variant at this codon (c.4021C>T; p.Arg1341Trp) has been reported in individuals with von Willebrand disease (vWD) Type 2B and is considered pathogenic (Casana 1998, Casonato 2015, Casonato 2016, Casonato 2017, Federici 2009, Nurden 2010, Sadler 2022, Vangenechten 2019). Functional analyses of the variant protein show increased shear-induced platelet aggregation and increased ristocetin and botrocetin induced binding to platelets compared to the wild type protein (Ajzenberg 2000), and reduced protein stability and multimer formation (Federici 2009, Nurden 2010, Tischer 2014). Computational analyses predict that this variant is deleterious (REVEL: 0.792). Based on available information, this variant is considered to be pathogenic. References: Ahmad F et al.

The NM_000552.5(VWF):c.4022G>A (p.Arg1341Gln) variant in VWF has been reported in several dozen vWD type 2B patients. At least one (P8 of PMID: 20118404) has sufficient information reported to meet the PP4_moderate criteria, including mucocutaneous bleeding, positive GOF assay, and loss of HMW multimers. An additional four have been curated for inclusion based on at least a LD-RIPA response (PMIDs: 20118404, 8292729; PS4_strong). In vitro studies have shown increased platelet binding in COS-7 cells and a VWF -/- mouse with R1306-vWF hydrodynamic expression recapitulated patient phenotypes (PS3). The Grpmax filtering allele frequency in gnomAD v4.1 is 2.800e-7 (based on 2/1179864 alleles in the European non-Finnish population), which is lower than the ClinGen VWD VCEP threshold of <0.0001 (PM2_Supporting). This variant is predicted deleterious by REVEL gives a score of 0.792, which is above the ClinGen VWD VCEP threshold of >0.644 (PP3). This variant has been observed segregating in multiple families, however insufficient phenotypic information has been reported on those individuals. In summary, this variant meets criteria to be classified as pathogenic for vWD type 2B with specified criteria PS3, PS4, PM2_supporting, PP3, and PP4_moderate. -

The VWF c.4022G>A variant is predicted to result in the amino acid substitution p.Arg1341Gln. Using legacy nomenclature, this variant has also been referred to in the literature as p.Arg578Gln. This variant has been reported in the heterozygous state in individuals with Von Willebrand disease 2b (Patient B6 in Cooney et al. 1991. PubMed ID: 1672694; Patient 310 in Ahmad et al. 2014. PubMed ID: 24712919; Patient 28 in Supplementary Table 2 in Freitas et al. 2019. PubMed ID: 30817071; Supplemental File 3 in Sadler et al. 2021. PubMed ID: 33556167). A functional study showed that this variant led to increased platelet aggregation under conditions of sheer flow compared to wildtype (Ajzenberg et al. 2000. PubMed ID: 10845912). This variant is reported in 0.00088% of alleles in individuals of European (Non-Finnish) descent in gnomAD (http://gnomad.broadinstitute.org/variant/12-6128562-C-T). Another variant impacting the same amino acid (p.Arg1341Trp) has also been documented in patients with Von Willebrand disease 2b (Casana et al. 1998. PubMed ID: 9723578). Based on this evidence, we interpret the c.4022G>A (p.Arg1341Gln) variant as pathogenic. -
