Variant summary

Our verdict is Pathogenic. Variant got 19 ACMG points: 19P and 0B. PM1 PM2 PM5 PP2 PP3_Strong PP5_Very_Strong

The NM_000138.5(FBN1):​c.4539C>G​(p.Cys1513Trp) variant causes a missense change involving the alteration of a non-conserved nucleotide. The variant was absent in control chromosomes in GnomAD project. In-silico tool predicts a pathogenic outcome for this variant. Variant has been reported in ClinVar as Likely pathogenic (★★). Another variant affecting the same amino acid position, but resulting in a different missense (i.e. C1513R) has been classified as Likely pathogenic.

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.

• PM2: Very rare variant in population databases, with high coverage
• PM5: Other missense variant is known to change same aminoacid residue: Variant chrnull-null-null-null is described in UniProt as null.
• PP2: Missense variant in gene, where missense usually causes diseases (based on misZ statistic), FBN1. . Gene score misZ 5.0644 (greater than the threshold 3.09). Trascript score misZ 8.1787 (greater than threshold 3.09). GenCC has associacion of gene with MASS syndrome, Weill-Marchesani syndrome, geleophysic dysplasia, Shprintzen-Goldberg syndrome, Acromicric dysplasia, familial thoracic aortic aneurysm and aortic dissection, progeroid and marfanoid aspect-lipodystrophy syndrome, ectopia lentis 1, isolated, autosomal dominant, Marfan syndrome, Weill-Marchesani syndrome 2, dominant, isolated ectopia lentis, neonatal Marfan syndrome, stiff skin syndrome.
• PP3: MetaRNN computational evidence supports a deleterious effect, 0.994
• PP5: Variant 15-48468455-G-C is Pathogenic according to our data. Variant chr15-48468455-G-C is described in ClinVar as [Likely_pathogenic]. Clinvar id is 457215.Status of the report is criteria_provided_multiple_submitters_no_conflicts, 2 stars.

Has been reported in association ectopia lentis or Marfan syndrome in published literature (Ganesh et al., 2006; Stheneur et al., 2009; Turner et al., 2009); Not observed at significant frequency in large population cohorts (gnomAD); In silico analysis supports that this missense variant has a deleterious effect on protein structure/function; Affects a cysteine residue within a calcium-binding EGF-like domain of the FBN1 gene, which may affect disulfide bonding and is predicted to alter the structure and function of the protein; cysteine substitutions in the calcium-binding EGF-like domains represent the majority of pathogenic missense changes associated with FBN1-related disorders (Collod-Beroud et al., 2003); This variant is associated with the following publications: (PMID: 19161152, 16476890, 19293843, 17627385) -

This variant generates a cysteine residue in an epidermal-growth-factor (EGF)–like domain of the FBN1 protein. Cysteine residues in these domains have been shown to be involved in the formation of disulfide bridges, which are critical for FBN1 protein structure and stability (PMID: 4750422, 16677079). Cysteine creating variants in these domains have been shown to affect protein stability and are overrepresented among individuals with Marfan syndrome (PMID: 15161917, 16571647, 17701892). For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. This variant has been reported in individuals affected with Marfan syndrome (PMID: 16476890, 17627385, 19293843). This variant is not present in population databases (ExAC no frequency). This sequence change replaces cysteine with tryptophan at codon 1513 of the FBN1 protein (p.Cys1513Trp). The cysteine residue is highly conserved and there is a large physicochemical difference between cysteine and tryptophan. -
