Submissions by phenotype
Familial thoracic aortic aneurysm and aortic dissection Uncertain:1
The c.7345+3A>G intronic variant results from an A to G substitution 3 nucleotides after coding exon 57 in the FBN2 gene. This nucleotide position is not well conserved in available vertebrate species. In silico splice site analysis predicts that this alteration will not have any significant effect on splicing. Based on the available evidence, the clinical significance of this variant remains unclear. -
Congenital contractural arachnodactyly Uncertain:1
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. Nucleotide substitutions within the consensus splice site are a relatively common cause of aberrant splicing (PMID: 17576681, 9536098). Algorithms developed to predict the effect of sequence changes on RNA splicing suggest that this variant may disrupt the consensus splice site, but this prediction has not been confirmed by published transcriptional studies. This variant has not been reported in the literature in individuals with FBN2-related disease. This variant is not present in population databases (ExAC no frequency). This sequence change falls in intron 57 of the FBN2 gene. It does not directly change the encoded amino acid sequence of the FBN2 protein, but it affects a nucleotide within the consensus splice site of the intron. -
