Genes affected
COL1A1 (HGNC:2197): (collagen type I alpha 1 chain) This gene encodes the pro-alpha1 chains of type I collagen whose triple helix comprises two alpha1 chains and one alpha2 chain. Type I is a fibril-forming collagen found in most connective tissues and is abundant in bone, cornea, dermis and tendon. Mutations in this gene are associated with osteogenesis imperfecta types I-IV, Ehlers-Danlos syndrome type VIIA, Ehlers-Danlos syndrome Classical type, Caffey Disease and idiopathic osteoporosis. Reciprocal translocations between chromosomes 17 and 22, where this gene and the gene for platelet-derived growth factor beta are located, are associated with a particular type of skin tumor called dermatofibrosarcoma protuberans, resulting from unregulated expression of the growth factor. Two transcripts, resulting from the use of alternate polyadenylation signals, have been identified for this gene. [provided by R. Dalgleish, Feb 2008]

Identified in two patients with thoracic aortic aneurysm and dissection (TAAD) in published literature, however, one individual also harbored a pathogenic variant in the FBN1 gene (PMID: 29543232); Occurs in the triple helical domain at the X position in the canonical Gly-X-Y repeat; although this variant may have an effect on normal protein folding and function, missense substitution at the X position is not a common mechanism of disease (HGMD); In silico analysis indicates that this missense variant does not alter protein structure/function; This variant is associated with the following publications: (PMID: 29543232) -

The COL1A1 c.1042G>A; p.Ala348Thr variant (rs139955975) is reported in the literature in two individuals affected with thoracic aortic aneurysm or dissection (Weerakkody 2018). This variant is reported in ClinVar (Variation ID: 35897) and is found in the non-Finnish European population with an allele frequency of 0.028% (30/107,172 alleles) in the Genome Aggregation Database. Computational analyses are uncertain whether this variant is neutral or deleterious (REVEL: 0.329). While this variant occurs in the Gly-X-Y triple helix repeat domain, it does not alter a conserved glycine reside like the majority of disease-causing missense variants (Amor Ben 2011). Due to limited information, the clinical significance of this variant is uncertain at this time. References: Ben Amor I et al.

This variant was observed as part of a predisposition screen in an ostensibly healthy population. A literature search was performed for the gene, cDNA change, and amino acid change (where applicable). No publications were found based on this search. Allele frequency data from public databases did not allow this variant to be ruled in or out of causing disease. Therefore, this variant is classified as a variant of unknown significance. -

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

This variant has been reported in an individual presenting with aneurysm. This COL1A1 variant (rs139955975) is rare (<0.1%) in a large population dataset (gnomAD: 33/240566 total alleles; 0.01%; no homozygotes), and has been reported in ClinVar. Three bioinformatic tools queried predict that this substitution would be tolerated, and the alanine residue at this position is evolutionarily conserved across mammals. We consider the clinical significance of c.1042G>A to be uncertain at this time. -

The COL1A1 c.1042G>A variant is predicted to result in the amino acid substitution p.Ala348Thr. This variant was previously reported in a cohort of individuals with aneurysm or dissection of the thoracic aorta (Weerakkody et al. 2018. PubMed ID: 2954332). This variant is reported in 0.028% of alleles in individuals of European (Non-Finnish) descent in gnomAD. However, at this time, the clinical significance of this variant is uncertain due to the absence of conclusive functional and genetic evidence. -

The p.A348T variant (also known as c.1042G>A), located in coding exon 16 of the COL1A1 gene, results from a G to A substitution at nucleotide position 1042. The alanine at codon 348 is replaced by threonine, an amino acid with similar properties. This variant was reported in two individuals with thoracic aortic aneurysm or dissection (Weerakkody R et al. Genet. Med., 2018 11;20:1414-1422). This alteration has also been noted in a biobank cohort (Wright CF et al. Am J Hum Genet, 2019 Feb;104:275-286). This amino acid position is 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 alteration remains unclear. -

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

Variant summary: COL1A1 c.1042G>A (p.Ala348Thr) results in a non-conservative amino acid change located in the Collagen triple helix repeat of the encoded protein sequence. Three of five in-silico tools predict a damaging effect of the variant on protein function. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 0.00013 in 209234 control chromosomes. The observed variant frequency is approximately 5 fold of the estimated maximal expected allele frequency for a pathogenic variant in COL1A1 causing Osteogenesis Imperfecta phenotype (2.8e-05). To our knowledge, no occurrence of c.1042G>A in individuals affected with Osteogenesis Imperfecta and no experimental evidence demonstrating its impact on protein function have been reported. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 35897). Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as likely benign. -
