Variant summary
Our verdict is Likely benign. The variant received -1 ACMG points: 0P and 1B. BP6
The NM_004612.4(TGFBR1):c.64_78delGCGGCGGCGGCGGCG(p.Ala22_Ala26del) variant causes a conservative inframe deletion change involving the alteration of a non-conserved nucleotide. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 0.000023 in 1,043,388 control chromosomes in the GnomAD database, with no homozygous occurrence. It is difficult to determine the true allele frequency of this variant because it is of type DEL_BIG, and the frequency of such variant types in population databases may be underestimated and unreliable. There is a variant allele frequency bias in the population database for this variant (GnomAdExome4), which may indicate mosaicism or somatic mutations in the reference population data. Variant has been reported in ClinVar as Conflicting classifications of pathogenicity (no stars). Synonymous variant affecting the same amino acid position (i.e. A22A) has been classified as Likely benign.

Variant summary: The TGFBR1 c.64_78delGCGGCGGCGGCGGCG (p.Ala22_Ala26del) variant involves the deletion of 15 nucleotides and results an inframe deletion of 5 out of 9 consecutive Alanines in N-terminus of TGFBR1 protein. These repeating Alanines are not located in any known domain (InterPro). One in silico tool predicts a benign outcome for this variant. There is no or extremely low coverage in this region in control databases (ExAC, gnomAD, ESP, or 1000Gs). c.70_78delGCGGCGGCG (rs11466445), a shorter deletion in this Alanine repeat region, is classified as benign/likely benign by 8 clinical diagnostics laboratories in ClinVar. However, the variant of interest has not, to our knowledge, been reported in affected individuals via publications and/or reputable databases/clinical diagnostic laboratories; nor evaluated for functional impact by in vivo/vitro studies. Because of the absence of clinical information and the lack of functional studies, the variant is classified as a variant of uncertain significance (VUS) until additional information becomes available. -

Familial thoracic aortic aneurysm and aortic dissection Uncertain:1Benign:1
This variant, c.64_78del, results in the deletion of 5 amino acid(s) of the TGFBR1 protein (p.Ala22_Ala26del), but otherwise preserves the integrity of the reading frame. The frequency data for this variant in the population databases is considered unreliable, as metrics indicate insufficient coverage at this position in the gnomAD database. This variant has not been reported in the literature in individuals affected with TGFBR1-related conditions. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 496263). 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. -
This alteration is classified as likely benign based on a combination of the following: seen in unaffected individuals, population frequency, intact protein function, lack of segregation with disease, co-occurrence, RNA analysis, in silico models, amino acid conservation, lack of disease association in case-control studies, and/or the mechanism of disease or impacted region is inconsistent with a known cause of pathogenicity. -
