Submissions by phenotype
Familial thoracic aortic aneurysm and aortic dissection Pathogenic:1
The p.R148* variant (also known as c.442C>T), located in coding exon 2 of the TGFB3 gene, results from a C to T substitution at nucleotide position 442. This changes the amino acid from an arginine to a stop codon within coding exon 2. This alteration is expected to result in loss of function by premature protein truncation or nonsense-mediated mRNA decay. While loss of function has not yet been clearly established as a mechanism of disease for TGFB3, alterations resulting in haploinsufficiency have been reported in patients with features consistent with manifestations of Loeys-Dietz syndrome (Schepers D et al. Hum Mutat. 2018;39(5):621-634; Ambry internal data). Based on the majority of available evidence to date, this variant is likely to be pathogenic. -
not provided Pathogenic:1
A likely pathogenic variant has been identified in the TGFB3 gene. The R148X variant has not been published as a pathogenic variant, nor has it been reported as a benign variant to our knowledge. This variant was not observed in approximately 6,500 individuals of European and African American ancestry in the NHLBI Exome Sequencing Project, indicating it is not a common benign variant in these populations. The R148X variant is predicted to cause loss of normal protein function either by protein truncation or nonsense-mediated mRNA decay. Furthermore, other nonsense variants in the TGFB3 gene have been reported in the Human Gene Mutation Database in association with aortic aneurysm and dissection (Stenson et al., 2014).In summary, R148X in the TGFB3 gene is expected to be pathogenic, as loss of function variants in this gene are strongly associated with this phenotype. -
Rienhoff syndrome Pathogenic:1
This sequence change creates a premature translational stop signal (p.Arg148*) in the TGFB3 gene. It is expected to result in an absent or disrupted protein product. Loss-of-function variants in TGFB3 are known to be pathogenic (PMID: 25835445, 26188975). This variant is not present in population databases (gnomAD no frequency). This premature translational stop signal has been observed in individual(s) with clinical features of TGFB3-related disease (Invitae). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 390113). For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. -
