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.

Variant summary: FBN1 c.737-21_737-20delCT alters a conserved nucleotide located close to a canonical splice site and therefore could affect mRNA splicing, leading to a significantly altered protein sequence. 5/5 computational tools predict no significant impact on normal splicing. However, these predictions have yet to be confirmed by functional studies. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 0.03 in 222242 control chromosomes in the gnomAD database, including 47 homozygotes. The observed variant frequency is approximately 263- fold the estimated maximal allele frequency expected for a pathogenic variant in FBN1 causing Aortopathy phenotype (0.00011), strongly suggesting that the variant is benign. To our knowledge, no occurrence of c.737-21_737-20delCT in individuals affected with Aortopathy and no experimental evidence demonstrating an impact on protein function have been reported. Two other clinical diagnostic laboratories have submitted clinical-significance assessments for this variant to ClinVar after 2014 without evidence for independent evaluation. Both laboratories cited the variant as benign. Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as benign.
