Genes affected
FBN1 (HGNC:3603): (fibrillin 1) This gene encodes a member of the fibrillin family of proteins. The encoded preproprotein is proteolytically processed to generate two proteins including the extracellular matrix component fibrillin-1 and the protein hormone asprosin. Fibrillin-1 is an extracellular matrix glycoprotein that serves as a structural component of calcium-binding microfibrils. These microfibrils provide force-bearing structural support in elastic and nonelastic connective tissue throughout the body. Asprosin, secreted by white adipose tissue, has been shown to regulate glucose homeostasis. Mutations in this gene are associated with Marfan syndrome and the related MASS phenotype, as well as ectopia lentis syndrome, Weill-Marchesani syndrome, Shprintzen-Goldberg syndrome and neonatal progeroid syndrome.

The c.4746A>G variant (also known as p.T1582T), located in coding exon 37 of the FBN1 gene, results from an A to G substitution at nucleotide position 4746. This nucleotide substitution does not change the amino acid at codon 1582. This nucleotide position is not well conserved in available vertebrate species. In silico splice site analysis for this alteration is inconclusive. Based on the available evidence, the clinical significance of this variant remains unclear. -

Variant summary: FBN1 c.4746A>G (p.Thr1582Thr) alters a non-conserved nucleotide located close to a canonical splice site and therefore could affect mRNA splicing, leading to a significantly altered protein sequence. Consensus agreement among computation tools predict no significant impact on normal splicing. However, these predictions have yet to be confirmed by functional studies. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 8e-06 in 251218 control chromosomes (gnomAD). The available data on variant occurrences in the general population are insufficient to allow any conclusion about variant significance. To our knowledge, no occurrence of c.4746A>G in individuals affected with Marfan Syndrome and no experimental evidence demonstrating its impact on protein function have been reported. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 197022). Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as uncertain significance. -

ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 197022). 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. Algorithms developed to predict the effect of sequence changes on RNA splicing suggest that this variant is not likely to affect RNA splicing. This variant has not been reported in the literature in individuals affected with FBN1-related conditions. This variant is present in population databases (rs794727601, gnomAD no frequency). This sequence change affects codon 1582 of the FBN1 mRNA. It is a 'silent' change, meaning that it does not change the encoded amino acid sequence of the FBN1 protein. It affects a nucleotide within the consensus splice site. -
