Genes affected
FBN1 (HGNC:3603): (fibrillin 1) This gene encodes a member of the fibrillin family of proteins. The encoded preproprotein is proteolytically processed to generate two proteins including the extracellular matrix component fibrillin-1 and the protein hormone asprosin. Fibrillin-1 is an extracellular matrix glycoprotein that serves as a structural component of calcium-binding microfibrils. These microfibrils provide force-bearing structural support in elastic and nonelastic connective tissue throughout the body. Asprosin, secreted by white adipose tissue, has been shown to regulate glucose homeostasis. Mutations in this gene are associated with Marfan syndrome and the related MASS phenotype, as well as ectopia lentis syndrome, Weill-Marchesani syndrome, Shprintzen-Goldberg syndrome and neonatal progeroid syndrome.

This sequence change replaces asparagine, which is neutral and polar, with serine, which is neutral and polar, at codon 2144 of the FBN1 protein (p.Asn2144Ser). This variant is not present in population databases (gnomAD no frequency). This missense change has been observed in individuals with Marfan syndrome (PMID: 8504310, 12938084, 16220557, 17657824). It has also been observed to segregate with disease in related individuals. This variant is also known as p.Asn1246Ser. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 16431). 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 expected to disrupt FBN1 protein function with a positive predictive value of 95%. Experimental studies have shown that this missense change affects FBN1 function (PMID: 7896820, 11829507). For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. -
