Our verdict is Pathogenic. The variant received 15 ACMG points: 15P and 0B. PS3PS4PS2_SupportingPP1_ModeratePP4_ModeratePP3PM2_Supporting

This summary comes from the ClinGen Evidence Repository: The c.3916C>T (p.Arg1306Trp) variant in VWF has been reported in several dozen vWD type 2B patients (PS4). At least 4 (PMIDs: 1419803, 19740526 and 15041272) have sufficient information reported to meet the PP4_moderate criteria. In vitro studies have shown increased platelet binding in COS-7 cells and a VWF -/- mouse with R1306-vWF hydrodynamic expression recapitulated patient phenotypes (PMID:20371742). This variant is absent from population databases, including gnomADv4.1 (PM2_supporting). It is predicted deleterious by REVEL which gives a score of 0.769, which is above the ClinGen VWD VCEP threshold of >0.644 and predicts a damaging effect on VWF function (PP3). This variant has been observed both de novo (PMID:1419803; PS2_supporting) and segregating in multiple families (PMID:15041272 and 1419803; PP1_moderate). In summary, this variant meets criteria to be classified as pathogenic for vWD type 2B with specified criteria PS3, PS4, PM2_supporting, PS2_supporting, PP1_moderate, 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]

This variant has not been reported in large, multi-ethnic general populations (http://gnomad.broadinstitute.org). In the published literature, the variant has been reported in affected individuals with Type 2B von Willebrand disease (vWD) (PMIDs: 1672694 (1991), 2010538 (1991), 27029718 (2016), and 31464689 (2019)), causing increased affinity of vWF with platelets (PMID: 15041272 (2003)), the selective loss of high molecular-weight vWF multimers (PMID: 1557393 (1992), and often thrombocytopenia (PMID: 19740526 (2010)). This variant has been reported to occur de novo (PMIDs: 9723578 (1998) and 1419803 (1992)), to segregate with vWD (PMIDs: 19740526 (2010) and 22077376 (2012)), and has been observed in a clinically healthy carrier (PMIDs: 1419803 (1992) and 19740526 (2010)). An in vitro study demonstrated that this variant has increased affinity for platelet receptor glycoprotein than wild type, a higher sensitivity to shear stress which facilitated self-aggregation, and exposure of platelet receptor glycoprotein binding sites (PMID: 23819767 (2013)). Analysis of this variant using bioinformatics tools for the prediction of the effect of amino acid changes on protein structure and function yielded predictions that this variant is damaging. Based on the available information, this variant is classified as pathogenic. -

The VWF c.3916C>T; p.Arg1306Trp variant (rs61749384), also known as Arg534Trp, is reported in the medical literature in multiple families affected by von Willebrand disease type IIB (Cooney 1991, Lillicrap 1991, Pietu 1991, Randi 1991, Donner 1992, Casana 1998, Ozeki 2010) and co-segregates with affected family members (Lillicrap 1991, Donner 1992, Casana 1998). Functional characterization of the p.Arg1306Trp protein indicates a greater sensitivity to shear stress, leading to a reduction of high molecular weight multimers in plasma (Scaglione 2013). This variant is also reported in ClinVar (Variation ID:288), but is absent from the Genome Aggregation Database, indicating it is not a common polymorphism. The arginine at residue 1306 is moderately conserved, and computational analyses predict that this variant is deleterious (REVEL: 0.769). Based on available information, the variant is classified as pathogenic. References: Casana P et al.

The missense variant VWF c.3916C>T, p.Arg1306Trp (p.R1306W) in exon 28 changes amino acid arginine at codon 1306 to tryptophan. The arginine at this residue is somewhat conserved among species. This amino acid change occurs in the A1 domain, a functional domain that binds GP1ba and collagen (Springer, 2014). This sequence variant has been previously reported in patients with type 2B von Willebrand disease (Cooney, 1991; Randi, 1991; Ozeki, 2010) and has been observed in multiple patients with type 2B VWD in our laboratory cohort. Functional studies of the variant in mammalian cells demonstrated significantly increased platelet binding in the presence and absence of ristocetin (Cooney, 1996) and dramatic enhancement of multimer sensitivity to shear stress. (Scaglione, 2013). To date, this variant has not been reported in the general population (GnomAD, Exome Variant Server). In summary, the collective evidence supports VWF c.3916C>T, p.Arg1306Trp as a pathogenic variant for type 2B von Willebrand disease. -
