Genes affected
TGFBR2 (HGNC:11773): (transforming growth factor beta receptor 2) The protein encoded by this gene is a transmembrane protein that has a protein kinase domain, forms a heterodimeric complex with TGF-beta receptor type-1, and binds TGF-beta. This receptor/ligand complex phosphorylates proteins, which then enter the nucleus and regulate the transcription of genes related to cell proliferation, cell cycle arrest, wound healing, immunosuppression, and tumorigenesis. Mutations in this gene have been associated with Marfan Syndrome, Loeys-Deitz Aortic Aneurysm Syndrome, and the development of various types of tumors. Alternatively spliced transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been characterized. [provided by RefSeq, Aug 2017]

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

The c.4G>T (p.G2C) alteration is located in exon 1 (coding exon 1) of the TGFBR2 gene. This alteration results from a G to T substitution at nucleotide position 4, causing the glycine (G) at amino acid position 2 to be replaced by a cysteine (C). Based on insufficient or conflicting evidence, the clinical significance of this alteration remains unclear.

Potent mutations in TGFBR2 gene encodes the transforming growth factor that have been associated with angiogenesis and diabetic retinopathy. More clinical studies are needed for stronger association. However, more evidence is required to confer the association of this particular variant rs565502802 with diabetic retinopathy.

Variant summary: TGFBR2 c.4G>T (p.Gly2Cys) results in a non-conservative amino acid change in the encoded protein sequence. Four of five in-silico tools predict a damaging effect of the variant on protein function. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 5.9e-05 in 219764 control chromosomes, predominantly at a frequency of 0.00064 within the African or African-American subpopulation in the gnomAD database. The observed variant frequency within African or African-American control individuals in the gnomAD database is approximately 205 fold of the estimated maximal expected allele frequency for a pathogenic variant in TGFBR2 causing Loeys-Dietz Syndrome phenotype (3.1e-06), strongly suggesting that the variant is a benign polymorphism found primarily in populations of African or African-American origin. To our knowledge, no occurrence of c.4G>T in individuals affected with Loeys-Dietz Syndrome and no experimental evidence demonstrating its impact on protein function have been reported. Two ClinVar submitters (evaluation after 2014) cite the variant as uncertain significance. Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as likely benign.
