Genes affected

FBLN5 (HGNC:3602): (fibulin 5) The protein encoded by this gene is a secreted, extracellular matrix protein containing an Arg-Gly-Asp (RGD) motif and calcium-binding EGF-like domains. It promotes adhesion of endothelial cells through interaction of integrins and the RGD motif. It is prominently expressed in developing arteries but less so in adult vessels. However, its expression is reinduced in balloon-injured vessels and atherosclerotic lesions, notably in intimal vascular smooth muscle cells and endothelial cells. Therefore, the protein encoded by this gene may play a role in vascular development and remodeling. Defects in this gene are a cause of autosomal dominant cutis laxa, autosomal recessive cutis laxa type I (CL type I), and age-related macular degeneration type 3 (ARMD3).

Pathogenic:1Uncertain:2

Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitter	clinical testing	Illumina Laboratory Services, Illumina	Apr 27, 2017	This variant was observed as part of a predisposition screen in an ostensibly healthy population. A literature search was performed for the gene, cDNA change, and amino acid change (where applicable). Publications were found based on this search. However, the evidence from the literature, in combination with allele frequency data from public databases where available, was not sufficient to rule this variant in or out of causing disease. Therefore, this variant is classified as a variant of unknown significance. -

Uncertain:2

Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitter	clinical testing	Labcorp Genetics (formerly Invitae), Labcorp	Dec 23, 2024	This sequence change replaces arginine, which is basic and polar, with tryptophan, which is neutral and slightly polar, at codon 351 of the FBLN5 protein (p.Arg351Trp). This variant is present in population databases (rs28939073, gnomAD 0.03%). This missense change has been observed in individual(s) with age-related macular degeneration (PMID: 15269314). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 5481). Invitae Evidence Modeling of protein sequence and biophysical properties (such as structural, functional, and spatial information, amino acid conservation, physicochemical variation, residue mobility, and thermodynamic stability) indicates that this missense variant is not expected to disrupt FBLN5 protein function with a negative predictive value of 80%. Experimental studies have shown that this missense change does not substantially affect FBLN5 function (PMID: 16652333). 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. -
Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitter	clinical testing	GeneDx	Aug 18, 2021	Identified in a patient with age-related macular degeneration in the published literature (Stone et al., 2004) Functional data suggests that R351W indicates increased self-association of the dimers (Jones et al., 2010), though additional studies are need to elucidate the pathogenicity of R351W In silico analysis supports that this missense variant has a deleterious effect on protein structure/function Reported in ClinVar as a variant of uncertain significance (ClinVar Variant ID# 5481; Landrum et al., 2016) This variant is associated with the following publications: (PMID: 20007835, 15269314, 21576112) -

Variant summary: FBLN5 c.1051C>T (p.Arg351Trp) results in a non-conservative amino acid change in the encoded protein sequence. Five of five in-silico tools predict a damaging effect of the variant on protein function. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 7.6e-05 in 251396 control chromosomes. This frequency is not significantly higher than estimated for a pathogenic variant in FBLN5 causing FBLN5-Related Disorders, allowing no conclusion about variant significance. c.1051C>T has been reported in the literature in individuals affected with FBLN5-Related Disorders (Stone_2004, Wasowska_2023). These data indicate that the variant may be associated with disease. At least one publication reports experimental evidence evaluating an impact on protein function, however, does not allow convincing conclusions about the variant effect (Jones_2010, Lotery_2007). The following publications have been ascertained in the context of this evaluation (PMID: 20007835, 16652333, 15269314, 37761846). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 5481). Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as VUS-possibly pathogenic. -
