Genes affected
COL3A1 (HGNC:2201): (collagen type III alpha 1 chain) This gene encodes the pro-alpha1 chains of type III collagen, a fibrillar collagen that is found in extensible connective tissues such as skin, lung, uterus, intestine and the vascular system, frequently in association with type I collagen. Mutations in this gene are associated with Ehlers-Danlos syndrome type IV, and with aortic and arterial aneurysms. [provided by R. Dalgleish, Feb 2008]

Variant summary: The COL3A1 c.2002C>A (p.Pro668Thr) variant involves the alteration of a conserved nucleotide, resulting in a missense substitution. 4/5 in silico tools predict a damaging outcome for this variant, although the change still may be tolerated. This variant was found in the large control datasets of ExAC and gnomAD at a frequency of 0.00174 and 0.001629 (210/120672 and 451/276924 chrs tested, respectively), predominantly in South Asian individuals, including 5 homozygotes. The observed frequencies exceed the estimated maximal expected allele frequency of a pathogenic COL3A1 variant (0.0000013), indicating that the variant is a benign polymorphism. The variant of interest has been reported in several affected individuals via publications, but has failed to segregate with the disease (Tromp, 1993). Lastly, it has been classified as Benign/Likely Benign by multiple clinical diagnostic laboratories/reputable databases. Taking together, the variant is classified as Benign. -

Collection Method:clinical testing

This variant was observed in the ICSL laboratory as part of a predisposition screen in an ostensibly healthy population. It had not been previously curated by ICSL or reported in the Human Gene Mutation Database (HGMD: prior to June 1st, 2018), and was therefore a candidate for classification through an automated scoring system. Utilizing variant allele frequency, disease prevalence and penetrance estimates, and inheritance mode, an automated score was calculated to assess if this variant is too frequent to cause the disease. Based on the score and internal cut-off values, a variant classified as benign is not then subjected to further curation. The score for this variant resulted in a classification of benign for this disease. -

p.Pro668Thr in exon 29 of COL3A1: This variant is not expected to have clinical significance it has been identified in 0.8% (129/16334) of South Asian chromosom es and 0.1% (71/66412) European chromosomes by the Exome Aggregation Consortium (ExAC, http://exac.broadinstitute.org; dbSNP rs1801183). This variant has been r eported in one adult with abdominal aortic aneurysm and a nephew with an intracr anial aneurysm; however, the variant was also identifed in two unaffected, elder ly brothers (Tromp 1993). -

This alteration is classified as benign based on a combination of the following: seen in unaffected individuals, population frequency, intact protein function, lack of segregation with disease, co-occurrence, RNA analysis, in silico models, amino acid conservation, lack of disease association in case-control studies, and/or the mechanism of disease or impacted region is inconsistent with a known cause of pathogenicity. -
