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: Pathogenic

Review Status: no assertion criteria provided

Collection Method: clinical testing

The NM_000138.5:c.1884C>G is considered to be rare in the general population database (gnomAD v2.1.1). This variant is located in functional domains. This variant was found in a patient with ectopia lentis or Marfan syndrome (PMID: 34281902; 35058154; 35612688). This variant was found in a patient with Marfan syndrome meeting revised Ghent criteria (aortic root dilatation, ectopia lentis, and a systemic score of 11 points) (Samsung Medical Center internal data). According to the ClinGen guidance for PP1/BS4 and PP4 criteria (PMID: 38103548), PP4 with weighted strength was applied. In summary, this variant was classified as a pathogenic variant for Marfan syndrome (PM1_S, PS4_M, PP2, PP4 with weighted strength, PM2_P). -

Significance: Pathogenic

Review Status: criteria provided, single submitter

Collection Method: clinical testing

For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. This variant disrupts the p.Cys628 amino acid residue in FBN1. Other variant(s) that disrupt this residue have been observed in individuals with FBN1-related conditions (PMID: 12402346; Invitae), which suggests that this may be a clinically significant amino acid residue. This variant affects a cysteine residue in the EGF-like, TGFBP or hybrid motif domains of FBN1. Cysteine residues are believed to be involved in intramolecular disulfide bridges and have been shown to be important for FBN1 protein structure (PMID: 16905551, 19349279). In addition, missense substitutions affecting cysteine residues within these domains are significantly overrepresented among patients with Marfan syndrome (PMID: 16571647, 17701892). Advanced modeling of protein sequence and biophysical properties (such as structural, functional, and spatial information, amino acid conservation, physicochemical variation, residue mobility, and thermodynamic stability) performed at Invitae indicates that this missense variant is expected to disrupt FBN1 protein function. This missense change has been observed in individual(s) with Marfan syndrome (Invitae). This variant is not present in population databases (gnomAD no frequency). This sequence change replaces cysteine, which is neutral and slightly polar, with tryptophan, which is neutral and slightly polar, at codon 628 of the FBN1 protein (p.Cys628Trp). -
