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.

Significance: Uncertain significance
Review Status: criteria provided, single submitter
Collection Method: clinical testing

The p.N1168S variant (also known as c.3503A>G), located in coding exon 28 of the FBN1 gene, results from an A to G substitution at nucleotide position 3503. The asparagine at codon 1168 is replaced by serine, an amino acid with highly similar properties and is located in the cb EGF-like #14 domain. This alteration was identified in an individual suspected of having Marfan syndrome (MFS); however, clinical details were not provided (Ogawa N et al. Am J Cardiol. 2011;108(12):1801-7). This variant seen in a proband with some features consistent with MFS, but was also detected in the reportedly unaffected father (Baudhuin LM et al. J Hum Genet, 2015 May;60:241-52). This amino acid position is not well conserved in available vertebrate species. In addition, the in silico prediction for this alteration is inconclusive. Since supporting evidence is limited at this time, the clinical significance of this variant remains unclear. -

Significance: Uncertain significance
Review Status: criteria provided, single submitter
Collection Method: clinical testing

This missense variant replaces asparagine with serine at codon 1168 of the FBN1 protein. Computational prediction tool indicates that this variant may have a neutral impact on protein structure and function. To our knowledge, functional studies have not been performed for this variant. This variant has been reported in two individuals affected with Marfan syndrome (PMID: 21907952, 25652356). This variant has been identified in 18/251440 chromosomes in the general population by the Genome Aggregation Database (gnomAD). The available evidence is insufficient to determine the role of this variant in disease conclusively. Therefore, this variant is classified as a Variant of Uncertain Significance. -

The FBN1 c.3503A>G; p.Asn1168Ser variant (rs776667707) is reported in the literature in individuals affected with Marfan syndrome, but was also identified in one individual’s unaffected father (Baudhuin 2015, Ogawa 2011). This variant is reported in ClinVar (Variation ID: 263998), and is found in the general population with an overall allele frequency of 0.007% (18/251440 alleles) in the Genome Aggregation Database. The asparagine at codon 1168 is weakly conserved, and computational analyses (SIFT: damaging, PolyPhen-2: benign) predict conflicting effects of this variant on protein structure/function. Due to limited information, the clinical significance of the p.Asn1168Ser variant is uncertain at this time. References: Baudhuin LM et al.

Reported in two unrelated individuals with a suspected diagnosis of Marfan syndrome; one individual inherited the variant from his unaffected father (Ogawa et al., 2011; Baudhuin et al., 2015); In silico analysis supports that this missense variant has a deleterious effect on protein structure/function; Although located in a calcium-binding EGF-like domain of the FBN1 gene, it does not affect a cysteine residue within this domain; 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); Reported in ClinVar as a variant of uncertain significance (ClinVar Variant ID# 263998; Landrum et al., 2016); This variant is associated with the following publications: (PMID: 25652356, 24941995, 26269718, 21907952) -

Variant summary: FBN1 c.3503A>G (p.Asn1168Ser) results in a conservative amino acid change located in the EGF-like domain (IPR000742) of the encoded protein sequence. Three of five in-silico tools predict a benign effect of the variant on protein function. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 7.2e-05 in 251440 control chromosomes. This frequency is not significantly higher than estimated for a pathogenic variant in FBN1 causing Marfan Syndrome, allowing no conclusion about variant significance. c.3503A>G has been reported in the literature in patients with suspected MFS, and the variant was found in the unaffected father of one of the patients (patient did not meet the Ghent criteria), suggesting that the variant may be benign (example, Baudhuin_2015). Co-segregation data was not provided for some of the patients, and it is unknown if the Ghent criteria were met in all of them (example, Ogawa_2011, Takeda_2018). To our knowledge, no experimental evidence demonstrating an impact on protein function has been reported. The following publications have been ascertained in the context of this evaluation (PMID: 21907952, 24941995, 25652356, 26269718, 29848614). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 263998). Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as VUS-possibly benign. -

Significance: Likely benign
Review Status: criteria provided, single submitter
Collection Method: clinical testing

The p.Asn1168Ser variant in FBN1 has been classified as likely benign because it has been identified in 0.01% (18/251440) chromosomes by gnomAD (http://gnomad.broadinstitute.org). Computational prediction tools and conservation analyses suggest that this variant may not impact the protein, including the presence of this amino acid (Serine; Ser) in rat.

This missense variant replaces asparagine with serine at codon 1168 of the FBN1 protein. Computational prediction is inconclusive regarding the impact of this variant on protein structure and function (internally defined REVEL score threshold 0.5 < inconclusive < 0.7, PMID: 27666373). To our knowledge, functional studies have not been performed for this variant. This variant has been reported in two individuals affected with Marfan syndrome (PMID: 21907952, 25652356). This variant has been identified in 18/251440 chromosomes in the general population by the Genome Aggregation Database (gnomAD). The available evidence is insufficient to determine the role of this variant in disease conclusively. Therefore, this variant is classified as a Variant of Uncertain Significance. -
