Genes affected
FGB (HGNC:3662): (fibrinogen beta chain) The protein encoded by this gene is the beta component of fibrinogen, a blood-borne glycoprotein comprised of three pairs of nonidentical polypeptide chains. Following vascular injury, fibrinogen is cleaved by thrombin to form fibrin which is the most abundant component of blood clots. In addition, various cleavage products of fibrinogen and fibrin regulate cell adhesion and spreading, display vasoconstrictor and chemotactic activities, and are mitogens for several cell types. Fibrinogen serves key roles in hemostasis and antimicrobial host defense. Mutations in this gene lead to several disorders, including afibrinogenemia, dysfibrinogenemia, hypodysfibrinogenemia and thrombotic tendency. [provided by RefSeq, Aug 2020]

ACMG classification

Classification was made for transcript

Our verdict: Likely_benign. The variant received -5 ACMG points.

BP4
Computational evidence support a benign effect (BayesDel_noAF=-0.64).
BS1
Variant frequency is greater than expected in population afr. GnomAdExome4 allele frequency = 0.00000794 (10/1259086) while in subpopulation AFR AF = 0.000344 (10/29074). AF 95% confidence interval is 0.000186. There are 0 homozygotes in GnomAdExome4. There are 2 alleles in the male GnomAdExome4 subpopulation. Median coverage is 18. This position passed quality control check. Existence of Clinvar submissions makes me limit the strength of this signal to Supporting
