Genes affected
FGFR3 (HGNC:3690): (fibroblast growth factor receptor 3) This gene encodes a member of the fibroblast growth factor receptor (FGFR) family, with its amino acid sequence being highly conserved between members and among divergent species. FGFR family members differ from one another in their ligand affinities and tissue distribution. A full-length representative protein would consist of an extracellular region, composed of three immunoglobulin-like domains, a single hydrophobic membrane-spanning segment and a cytoplasmic tyrosine kinase domain. The extracellular portion of the protein interacts with fibroblast growth factors, setting in motion a cascade of downstream signals, ultimately influencing mitogenesis and differentiation. This particular family member binds acidic and basic fibroblast growth hormone and plays a role in bone development and maintenance. Mutations in this gene lead to craniosynostosis and multiple types of skeletal dysplasia. [provided by RefSeq, Aug 2017]

This sequence change replaces proline, which is neutral and non-polar, with leucine, which is neutral and non-polar, at codon 250 of the FGFR3 protein (p.Pro250Leu). This variant is present in population databases (no rsID available, gnomAD 0.004%). This missense change has been observed in individual(s) with clinical features of FGFR3-related conditions (PMID: 12362036). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 533893). Invitae Evidence Modeling of protein sequence and biophysical properties (such as structural, functional, and spatial information, amino acid conservation, physicochemical variation, residue mobility, and thermodynamic stability) indicates that this missense variant is expected to disrupt FGFR3 protein function with a positive predictive value of 80%. This variant disrupts the p.Pro250 amino acid residue in FGFR3. Other variant(s) that disrupt this residue have been determined to be pathogenic (PMID: 9042914, 10094188, 10861678, 15915095, 26740388). This suggests that this residue is clinically significant, and that variants that disrupt this residue are likely to be disease-causing. In summary, the available evidence is currently insufficient to determine the role of this variant in disease. Therefore, it has been classified as a Variant of Uncertain Significance. -

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

The FGFR3 c.749C>T variant is predicted to result in the amino acid substitution p.Pro250Leu. This variant was reported in an individual with craniosynostosis and found to be inherited from her very mildly affected mother (Schindler et al 2002. PubMed ID: 12362036). This variant is reported in 0.0041% of alleles in individuals of European (Finnish) descent in gnomAD (http://gnomad.broadinstitute.org/variant/4-1803571-C-T). A different missense variant affecting the same amino acid is a common cause of isolated craniosynostosis (see for example, Kruszka. 2016. PubMed ID: 26740388 ). Although we suspect that this variant may be pathogenic, at this time, the clinical significance is uncertain due to the absence of conclusive functional and genetic evidence. -
