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.1670G>A(p.Cys557Tyr) variant causes a missense change involving the alteration of a conserved nucleotide. The variant was absent in control chromosomes in GnomAD project. In-silico tool predicts a pathogenic outcome for this variant. 11/18 in silico tools predict a damaging outcome for this variant. Variant has been reported in ClinVar as Pathogenic (★★). Another variant affecting the same amino acid position, but resulting in a different missense (i.e. C557F) has been classified as 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.

ACMG classification

Verdict is Pathogenic. Variant got 19 ACMG points.

• PM1: In a hotspot region, there are 3 aminoacids with missense pathogenic changes in the window of +-8 aminoacids around while only 1 benign, 7 uncertain in NM_000138.5
• PM2: Very rare variant in population databases, with high coverage
• PM5: Other missense variant is known to change same aminoacid residue: Variant chr15-48510088-C-A is described in ClinVar as [Pathogenic]. Clinvar id is 457166.Status of the report is criteria_provided_single_submitter, 1 stars.
• PP2: Missense variant where missense usually causes diseases, FBN1
• PP3: MetaRNN computational evidence supports a deleterious effect, 0.996
• PP5: Variant 15-48510088-C-T is Pathogenic according to our data. Variant chr15-48510088-C-T is described in ClinVar as [Pathogenic]. Clinvar id is 381611.Status of the report is criteria_provided_multiple_submitters_no_conflicts, 2 stars. Variant chr15-48510088-C-T is described in Lovd as [Likely_pathogenic].

Variant has been reported in the literature in association with Marfan syndrome; however, detailed clinical information was not provided (Stheneur et al., 2009); Reported in ClinVar as pathogenic (ClinVar Variant ID# 381611; Landrum et al., 2016); Not observed in large population cohorts (Lek et al., 2016); 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).; In silico analysis, which includes protein predictors and evolutionary conservation, supports a deleterious effect; This variant is associated with the following publications: (PMID: 12938084, 19293843, 16905551, 19349279, 16571647, 17701892, 31730815) -

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). For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. This variant has been observed in individual(s) with Marfan syndrome (PMID: 19293843). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 381611). This variant is not present in population databases (ExAC no frequency). This sequence change replaces cysteine with tyrosine at codon 557 of the FBN1 protein (p.Cys557Tyr). The cysteine residue is highly conserved and there is a large physicochemical difference between cysteine and tyrosine. -
