Variant summary

Our verdict is Pathogenic. The variant received 15 ACMG points: 15P and 0B. PS3 PM2 PP3 PP5_Very_Strong

The NM_000138.5(FBN1):​c.4460-8G>A variant causes a splice region, intron change involving the alteration of a non-conserved nucleotide. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 0.00000186 in 1,613,774 control chromosomes in the GnomAD database, with no homozygous occurrence. In-silico tool predicts a benign outcome for this variant. 3/3 splice prediction tools predicting alterations to normal splicing. Variant has been reported in ClinVar as Likely pathogenic (★★). ClinVar reports functional evidence for this variant: "SCV004847813: in vitro splicing assays (Pepe 2007) predict a splicing impact, though this information is not predictive enough to determine pathogenicity." and additional evidence is available in ClinVar. The gene FBN1 is included in the ClinGen Criteria Specification Registry.

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.

ACMG classification

Specifications for FBN1 are available in the ClinGen Criteria Specification Registry and recommended for reference when assigning criteria.

Our verdict: Pathogenic. The variant received 15 ACMG points.

• PS3: PS3 evidence extracted from ClinVar submissions: SCV004847813: in vitro splicing assays (Pepe 2007) predict a splicing impact, though this information is not predictive enough to determine pathogenicity.; SCV000515903: Two publications independently reported that cDNA sequence analysis demonstrated the result of this variant to be in-frame insertion of 6 nucleotides into the coding sequence (c.4459_4460insTTTTAG) (Loeys et al., 2001; Pepe et al., 2007). PMID: 19293843, 18087243, 32679894, 11700157; SCV000898693: Complementary DNA (cDNA) sequencing studies are consistent with the in silico predictions, demonstrating that this variant results in the retention of the last 6 nucleotides of intron 35 into exon 35, which is predicted to result in the in-frame insertion of two novel amino acids (Loeys 2001 PMID: 11700157; Pepe 2007 PMID: 18087243).
• PM2: Very rare variant in population databases, with high coverage
• PP3: Splicing predictors support a deleterious effect. Scorers claiming Pathogenic: dbscSNV1_ADA, dbscSNV1_RF, max_spliceai. No scorers claiming Uncertain. No scorers claiming Benign.
• PP5: Variant 15-48468542-C-T is Pathogenic according to our data. Variant chr15-48468542-C-T is described in ClinVar as Pathogenic/Likely_pathogenic. ClinVar VariationId is 36075.Status of the report is criteria_provided_multiple_submitters_no_conflicts, 2 stars.
