Genes affected
FBN1 (HGNC:3603): (fibrillin 1) This gene encodes a member of the fibrillin family of proteins. The encoded preproprotein is proteolytically processed to generate two proteins including the extracellular matrix component fibrillin-1 and the protein hormone asprosin. Fibrillin-1 is an extracellular matrix glycoprotein that serves as a structural component of calcium-binding microfibrils. These microfibrils provide force-bearing structural support in elastic and nonelastic connective tissue throughout the body. Asprosin, secreted by white adipose tissue, has been shown to regulate glucose homeostasis. Mutations in this gene are associated with Marfan syndrome and the related MASS phenotype, as well as ectopia lentis syndrome, Weill-Marchesani syndrome, Shprintzen-Goldberg syndrome and neonatal progeroid syndrome.

Marfan syndrome Pathogenic:6
Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingAll of Us Research Program, National Institutes of HealthNov 08, 2023The c.5368C>T (p.Arg1790*) variant in of the FBN1 gene creates a premature termination codon that is predicted to lead to an absent or truncated protein product. This variant has been identified in numerous individuals (>10) affected with clinical features of Marfan syndrome (PMID:16222657, 19618372, 16835936, 19533785, 19863550, 19293843, 17627385, 26787436). Loss of function variants are known to be pathogenic for FBN1 (PMID: 17701892, 30286810, 21063442, 17657824, 19293843). Truncating variants downstream of this variant are reported in individuals with Marfan syndrome (PMID: 27906200, 31730815, 24793577). This variant is found to be absent in the general population database (gnomAD) and interpreted as pathogenic by several submitters in the ClinVar database (ClinVar ID: 42382). Therefore, the c.5368C>T (p.Arg1790*) variant in the FBN1 gene is classified as pathogenic. -

Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingLaboratory for Molecular Medicine, Mass General Brigham Personalized MedicineJun 05, 2023The p.Arg1790X variant in FBN1 has been reported in 6 individuals with clinically diagnosed Marfan Syndrome (fulfilled Ghent criteria) and 3 individuals with clinical features of Marfan-like phenotypes (Marfan syndrome suspected, but not fulfilling Ghent criteria; Arbustini 2005 PMID: 16222657, Sakai 2006 PMID: 16835936, Chung 2009 PMID: 19533785, Magyar 2009 PMID: 19618372, Yoo 2010 PMID: 19863550, Zhurayev 2016 PMID: 27724990, Stengl 2020 PMID: 33059708, Meester 2022 PMID: 35058154. This variant has also been reported by other clinical laboratories in ClinVar (Variation ID 42382) and was absent from large population studies (gnomAD, v.3.1.2). This nonsense variant leads to a premature termination codon at position 1790, which is predicted to lead to a truncated or absent protein. Heterozygous loss of function of the FBN1 gene is an established disease mechanism of autosomal dominant Marfan syndrome. In summary, this variant meets criterion to be classified as pathogenic for autosomal dominant Marfan Syndrome. ACMG/AMP Criteria applied: PM2_supporting, PSV1, PS4_Moderate. -

Familial thoracic aortic aneurysm and aortic dissection Pathogenic:1
Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingAmbry GeneticsJul 25, 2022The p.R1790* pathogenic mutation (also known as c.5368C>T), located in coding exon 43 of the FBN1 gene, results from a C to T substitution at nucleotide position 5368. This alteration changes the amino acid from an arginine to a stop codon within coding exon 43. This mutation has been reported in numerous Marfan syndrome cohorts (e.g., Arbustini E et al. Hum Mutat. 2005;26(5):494; Magyar I et al. Hum. Mutat. 2009;30:1355-64; Stheneur C et al. Eur. J. Hum. Genet. 2009;17:1121-8; Franken R et al. Eur. Heart J, 2016;37:3285-3290). This variant is considered to be rare based on population cohorts in the Genome Aggregation Database (gnomAD). In addition to the clinical data presented in the literature, this alteration is expected to result in loss of function by premature protein truncation or nonsense-mediated mRNA decay. As such, this alteration is interpreted as a disease-causing mutation. -

Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingGeneDxMar 01, 2022Has been reported several times in association with Marfan syndrome or other Marfan-like syndrome in unrelated patients referred for genetic testing at GeneDx and in the published literature (Arbustini et al., 2005; Sakai et al., 2006; Howarth et al., 2007; Chung et al., 2009; Magyar et al., 2009; Yoo et al., 2010; Stengl et al., 2020); Not observed at significant frequency in large population cohorts (gnomAD); Nonsense variant predicted to result in protein truncation or nonsense mediated decay in a gene for which loss-of-function is a known mechanism of disease; This variant is associated with the following publications: (PMID: 16222657, 19533785, 16835936, 17627385, 19293843, 26787436, 19863550, 19618372, 33059708) -
Marfan syndrome;C4707243:Familial thoracic aortic aneurysm and aortic dissection Pathogenic:1
Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingInvitaeJul 27, 2023This variant is not present in population databases (gnomAD no frequency). This sequence change creates a premature translational stop signal (p.Arg1790*) in the FBN1 gene. It is expected to result in an absent or disrupted protein product. Loss-of-function variants in FBN1 are known to be pathogenic (PMID: 17657824, 19293843). This premature translational stop signal has been observed in individuals with Marfan syndrome (PMID: 16222657, 16835936, 19533785, 19618372, 19863550, 26787436). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 42382). For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. -
