Genes affected

COL3A1 (HGNC:2201): (collagen type III alpha 1 chain) This gene encodes the pro-alpha1 chains of type III collagen, a fibrillar collagen that is found in extensible connective tissues such as skin, lung, uterus, intestine and the vascular system, frequently in association with type I collagen. Mutations in this gene are associated with Ehlers-Danlos syndrome type IV, and with aortic and arterial aneurysms. [provided by R. Dalgleish, Feb 2008]

The p.G435S variant (also known as c.1303G>A), located in coding exon 19 of the COL3A1 gene, results from a G to A substitution at nucleotide position 1303. The glycine at codon 435 is replaced by serine, an amino acid with some similar properties. The majority (approximately two-thirds) of COL3A1 mutations identified to date have involved the substitution of another amino acid for glycine within the triple-helical domain (Pepin MG et al. Genet Med. 2014;16(12):881-8; Frank M et al. Eur J Hum Genet. 2015;23(12):1657-64). Internal structural analysis indicates that this alteration disrupts the characteristic G-X-Y motif in the COL3A1 protein and inserts a bulky side chain into a sterically-constrained region (Bella J et al. Science. 1994;266:75-81; Hohenester E et al. Proc. Natl. Acad. Sci. U.S.A. 2008;105:18273-7; Ambry internal data). An alteration at the same amino acid position, p.G435D, was reported in a patient with vascular Ehlers-Danlos syndrome (Frank M et al. Eur J Hum Genet. 2015;23:1657-64). This variant was not reported in population-based cohorts in the Genome Aggregation Database (gnomAD). This amino acid position is highly conserved in available vertebrate species. In addition, this alteration is predicted to be deleterious by in silico analysis. Based on the majority of available evidence to date, this variant is likely to be pathogenic. -

Advanced modeling of protein sequence and biophysical properties (such as structural, functional, and spatial information, amino acid conservation, physicochemical variation, residue mobility, and thermodynamic stability) performed at Invitae indicates that this missense variant is expected to disrupt COL3A1 protein function. This variant disrupts the triple helix domain of COL3A1. Glycine residues within the Gly-Xaa-Yaa repeats of the triple helix domain are required for the structure and stability of fibrillar collagens (PMID: 7695699, 8218237, 19344236). In COL3A1, variants that affect these glycine residues are significantly enriched in individuals with disease (PMID: 24922459, 25758994) compared to the general population (ExAC). In summary, the currently available evidence indicates that the variant is pathogenic, but additional data are needed to prove that conclusively. Therefore, this variant has been classified as Likely Pathogenic. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 263854). This sequence change replaces glycine, which is neutral and non-polar, with serine, which is neutral and polar, at codon 435 of the COL3A1 protein (p.Gly435Ser). This variant is not present in population databases (gnomAD no frequency). This variant has not been reported in the literature in individuals affected with COL3A1-related conditions. -
