Genes affected
FBLN5 (HGNC:3602): (fibulin 5) The protein encoded by this gene is a secreted, extracellular matrix protein containing an Arg-Gly-Asp (RGD) motif and calcium-binding EGF-like domains. It promotes adhesion of endothelial cells through interaction of integrins and the RGD motif. It is prominently expressed in developing arteries but less so in adult vessels. However, its expression is reinduced in balloon-injured vessels and atherosclerotic lesions, notably in intimal vascular smooth muscle cells and endothelial cells. Therefore, the protein encoded by this gene may play a role in vascular development and remodeling. Defects in this gene are a cause of autosomal dominant cutis laxa, autosomal recessive cutis laxa type I (CL type I), and age-related macular degeneration type 3 (ARMD3).

Identified in patients with age-related macular degeneration or spinal Charcot-Marie-Tooth, as well as in control cohorts (Lotery et al., 2006; Auer-Grumbach et al., 2011; Duvvari et al., 2016); Expression of this variant in COS-7 cells demonstrated no significant effect on fibulin-5 protein secretion or quantity compared to wild-type (Lotery et al., 2006), and biophysical techniques did not suggest any gross structural changes in association with this variant (Jones et al., 2010); In silico analysis, which includes protein predictors and evolutionary conservation, supports that this variant does not alter protein structure/function; Reported in ClinVar as either a variant of uncertain significance or a likely benign variant but additional evidence is not available (ClinVar Variant ID# 218360; Landrum et al., 2016); This variant is associated with the following publications: (PMID: 21616967, 20389311, 27007659, 21576112, 22943132, 23293578, 16652333, 20007835, 23532871) -

Variant summary: FBLN5 c.376G>A (p.Val126Met) results in a conservative amino acid change located in the Growth factor receptor domain (IPR009030) of the encoded protein sequence. Three of five in-silico tools predict a benign effect of the variant on protein function. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 0.0018 in 249058 control chromosomes. The observed variant frequency is approximately 2-fold of the estimated maximal expected allele frequency for a pathogenic variant in FBLN5 causing Cutis laxa, autosomal recessive, type 1A phenotype (0.0011). c.376G>A has been reported in the literature in individuals affected with cuticular drusen, without strong evidence for causality (Duvvari_2016). These report(s) do not provide unequivocal conclusions about association of the variant with Cutis laxa, autosomal recessive, type 1A. To our knowledge, no experimental evidence demonstrating an impact on protein function has been reported. The following publication has been ascertained in the context of this evaluation (PMID: 27007659). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 218360). Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as likely benign. -

Significance:Likely benign
Review Status:criteria provided, single submitter
Collection Method:clinical testing

This variant was observed as part of a predisposition screen in an ostensibly healthy population. A literature search was performed for the gene, cDNA change, and amino acid change (where applicable). Publications were found based on this search. The evidence from the literature, in combination with allele frequency data from public databases where available, was sufficient to determine this variant is unlikely to cause disease. Therefore, this variant is classified as likely benign. -
