Identified in several members of one family with early onset macular degeneration (PMID: 24899048); In silico analysis indicates that this missense variant does not alter protein structure/function; Although located in a calcium-binding EGF-like domain of the FBN2 gene, it does not substitute or introduce a cysteine residue (PMID: 19006240, 18767143); This variant is associated with the following publications: (PMID: 31624054, 25986072, 36971708, 37100863, 19006240, 18767143, 24899048) -

The p.E1144K variant (also known as c.3430G>A), located in coding exon 26 of the FBN2 gene, results from a G to A substitution at nucleotide position 3430. The glutamic acid at codon 1144 is replaced by lysine, an amino acid with similar properties. This variant was reported to co-segregate with early onset macular dystrophy in five relatives in one family (Ratnapriya R et al. Hum Mol Genet. 2014;23(21):5827-3). This amino acid position is not well conserved in available vertebrate species. In addition, the in silico prediction for this alteration is inconclusive. Since supporting evidence is limited at this time, the clinical significance of this variant remains unclear. -
