Significance:Uncertain significance
Review Status:criteria provided, single submitter
Collection Method:clinical testing

A variant of uncertain significance has been identified in the FBN2 gene. The T2278M variant has not been published as pathogenic or been reported as benign to our knowledge. This variant is observed in 10/8644 (0.1%) alleles from individuals of East Asian ancestry in the Exome Aggregation Consortium (ExAC) datset (Lek et al., 2016; Exome Variant Server). This substitution occurs at a position that is conserved in mammals and in silico analysis is inconsistent in its predictions as to whether or not the variant is damaging to the protein structure/function. Furthermore, while the T2278M variant is located within a calcium-binding EGF-like domain of the FBN2 gene, it does not affect a Cysteine residue in this domain. Cysteine substitutions in the calcium-binding EGF-like domains represent the majority of pathogenic missense changes associated with congenital arachnodactyly (Collod-Beroud et al., 2003; Frédéric et al., 2009). Nevertheless, the T2278M variant is a non-conservative amino acid substitution, which is likely to impact secondary protein structure as these residues differ in polarity, charge, size and/or other properties. -
