Genes affected

FBN2 (HGNC:3604): (fibrillin 2) The protein encoded by this gene is a component of connective tissue microfibrils and may be involved in elastic fiber assembly. Mutations in this gene cause congenital contractural arachnodactyly. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]

This sequence change creates a premature translational stop signal (p.Gln2625*) in the FBN2 gene. It is expected to result in an absent or disrupted protein product. However, the current clinical and genetic evidence is not sufficient to establish whether loss-of-function variants in FBN2 cause disease. 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. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 458781). This variant has not been reported in the literature in individuals affected with FBN2-related conditions. This variant is not present in population databases (gnomAD no frequency).
