Genes affected

ACTA2 (HGNC:130): (actin alpha 2, smooth muscle) This gene encodes one of six different actin proteins. Actins are highly conserved proteins that are involved in cell motility, structure, integrity, and intercellular signaling. The encoded protein is a smooth muscle actin that is involved in vascular contractility and blood pressure homeostasis. Mutations in this gene cause a variety of vascular diseases, such as thoracic aortic disease, coronary artery disease, stroke, and Moyamoya disease, as well as multisystemic smooth muscle dysfunction syndrome.

STAMBPL1 (HGNC:24105): (STAM binding protein like 1) Predicted to enable Lys63-specific deubiquitinase activity and thiol-dependent deubiquitinase. Predicted to be involved in protein K63-linked deubiquitination. Located in membrane. [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Apr 2022]

ACMG classification

Our verdict: Likely_pathogenic. The variant received 6 ACMG points.

• PM2: Very rare variant in population databases, with high coverage
• PP2: Missense variant in the ACTA2 gene, where missense mutations are typically associated with disease (based on misZ statistic). The gene has 27 curated pathogenic missense variants (we use a threshold of 10). The gene has 0 curated benign missense variants. Trascript score misZ: 4.6117 (above the threshold of 3.09). GenCC associations: The gene is linked to multisystemic smooth muscle dysfunction syndrome, connective tissue disorder, familial thoracic aortic aneurysm and aortic dissection, Moyamoya disease 5, aortic aneurysm, familial thoracic 6.
• PP3: MetaRNN computational evidence supports a deleterious effect, 0.934
• PP5: Variant 10-88947270-G-C is Pathogenic according to our data. Variant chr10-88947270-G-C is described in ClinVar as Conflicting_classifications_of_pathogenicity. ClinVar VariationId is 536918.

Significance: Likely pathogenic

Review Status: criteria provided, single submitter

Collection Method: clinical testing

This sequence change replaces aspartic acid, which is acidic and polar, with glutamic acid, which is acidic and polar, at codon 82 of the ACTA2 protein (p.Asp82Glu). This variant is not present in population databases (gnomAD no frequency). This missense change has been observed in individuals with thoracic aortic aneurysms or dissections (PMID: 21212136; internal data). It has also been observed to segregate with disease in related individuals. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 536918). Invitae Evidence Modeling of protein sequence and biophysical properties (such as structural, functional, and spatial information, amino acid conservation, physicochemical variation, residue mobility, and thermodynamic stability) indicates that this missense variant is not expected to disrupt ACTA2 protein function with a negative predictive value of 80%. 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.

Collection Method: clinical testing

The p.D82E variant (also known as c.246C>G), located in coding exon 2 of the ACTA2 gene, results from a C to G substitution at nucleotide position 246. The aspartic acid at codon 82 is replaced by glutamic acid, an amino acid with highly similar properties. This alteration has been detected in a proband and parent with type A aortic dissections, and biopsy of aortic media showed reduced smooth muscle cell alpha-actin immunostaining (Disabella E et al. Heart, 2011 Feb;97:321-6). This amino acid position is highly conserved in available vertebrate species. In addition, this alteration is predicted to be deleterious by in silico analysis. Since supporting evidence is limited at this time, the clinical significance of this alteration remains unclear.
