Variant summary
Our verdict is Pathogenic. Variant got 11 ACMG points: 11P and 0B. PM1PM2PP2PP3_StrongPP5_Moderate
The NM_000138.5(FBN1):c.3513C>G(p.Cys1171Trp) 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 (★). Synonymous variant affecting the same amino acid position (i.e. C1171C) has been classified as Likely benign.

Variant summary: The FBN1 c.3513C>G (p.Cys1171Trp) variant involves the alteration of a non-conserved nucleotide and results in a replacement of a medium size and polar Cysteine (C) with a large size and aromatic (W) located in the EGF-like #14 domain (ACMG: PM1). Cystein residues of the EGF-like domains of FBN1 are known to be important structural elements due to the ability of the sulfhydryl group to participate in disulfide covalent intramolecular cross-linkage. Additionally, cysteine residues in the EGF-like motif may also be necessary for intermolecular interactions with other fibrillin molecules or with other proteins (Dietz_1992). Consequently, 4/4 in silico tools predict a damaging outcome for this substitution (SNPs&GO not captured due to low reliability index) (ACMG: PP3). This variant is absent in 121412 control chromosomes while it was reported in an MFS patient who presented with familial disease and ocular, skeletal, and cardiovascular manifestations indicating causality (ACMG: PM2). Moreover, variants impacting the Cys1171 codon such as p.Cys1171Arg, p.Cys1171Tyr, p.Cys1171Phe, and p.Cys1171X are listed in UMD/ClinVar/HGMD as pathogenic indicating the variant to be located in a mutational hotspot and the clinical importance of the Cys1171 residue (ACMG: PM5). Taken together, this variant is classified as likely pathogenic. -
