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]

This sequence change replaces glycine, which is neutral and non-polar, with arginine, which is basic and polar, at codon 786 of the COL3A1 protein (p.Gly786Arg). This variant is not present in population databases (gnomAD no frequency). This missense change has been observed in individuals with vascular Ehlers-Danlos syndrome (PMID: 2243125, 18043893, 24399159, 24650746, 30474650, 31126764). It has also been observed to segregate with disease in related individuals. This variant is also known as p.Gly619Arg. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 17200). Invitae Evidence Modeling of protein sequence and biophysical properties (such as structural, functional, and spatial information, amino acid conservation, physicochemical variation, residue mobility, and thermodynamic stability) indicates that this missense variant is expected to disrupt COL3A1 protein function with a positive predictive value of 95%. This variant disrupts the triple helix domain of COL3A1. Glycine residues within the Gly-Xaa-Yaa repeats of the triple helix domain are required for the structure and stability of fibrillar collagens (PMID: 7695699, 8218237, 19344236). In COL3A1, variants that affect these glycine residues are significantly enriched in individuals with disease (PMID: 24922459, 25758994) compared to the general population (ExAC). For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. -

The c.2356G>A (p.Gly786Arg) variant in COL3A1 gene that encodes for collagen type III alpha 1 chain, has been reported in at least eight individuals affected with vascular Ehlers-Danlos syndrome (vEDS) or other COL3A1-related phenotypes (PMID: 18043893, 24399159, 24650746, 30474650, 31126764, 36189931, 36977837, 37655064). This variant affects a conserved glycine residue changes to which are significantly enriched in individuals with COL3A1-related conditions (PMID: 24922459, 25758994). Glycine residues within the Gly-X-Y repeats of the triple helix domain are required for the structure and stability of fibrillar collagens (PMID: 7695699, 8218237, 19344236). Computational prediction tools suggest that this variant may have deleterious effect on the protein function (REVEL score: 0.995). This variant is absent in the general population database gnomAD (v4.1.0), and interpreted as likely pathogenic/pathogenic by multiple submitters in ClinVar database (ClinVar ID: 17200). Another variant affecting the same amino acid residue, p.Gly786Val has been reported in two individuals with vEDS (PMID: 30474650) and classified as pathogenic by single submitter in ClinVar (ID: 101274). Therefore, the c.2356G>A (p.Gly786Arg) variant in COL3A1 gene is classified as likely pathogenic. -

The p.G786R pathogenic mutation (also known as c.2356G>A), located in coding exon 34 of the COL3A1 gene, results from a G to A substitution at nucleotide position 2356. The glycine at codon 786 is replaced by arginine, an amino acid with dissimilar properties. The majority (approximately two-thirds) of COL3A1 mutations identified to date have involved the substitution of another amino acid for glycine within the triple-helical domain (Pepin MG et al. Genet Med. 2014;16(12):881-8; Frank M et al. Eur J Hum Genet. 2015;23(12):1657-64). This particular glycine substitution (also known as legacy p.G619R) has been reported in individuals with vascular Ehlers-Danlos syndrome (vEDS), as well as in affected family members (Kontusaari S et al. J. Clin. Invest., 1990 Nov;86:1465-73; Kuivaniemi H et al. J. Clin. Invest., 1991 Nov;88:1441-4; Pepin MG et al. Genet. Med., 2014 Dec;16:881-8; Morissette R et al. Circ Cardiovasc Genet, 2014 Feb;7:80-8). Internal structural analysis indicates that this alteration disrupts the characteristic G-X-Y motif in the COL3A1 protein and inserts a bulky side chain into a sterically-constrained region (Bella J et al. Science. 1994;266:75-81; Hohenester E et al. Proc. Natl. Acad. Sci. U.S.A. 2008;105:18273-7; Ambry internal data). This variant is considered to be rare based on population cohorts in the Genome Aggregation Database (gnomAD). An alternate amino acid substitution at this codon, p.G786V, has also been detected in vEDS cohorts (Pepin MG et al. Genet. Med., 2014 Dec;16:881-8; Henneton P et al. Circ Genom Precis Med, 2019 Mar;12:e001996). This amino acid position is highly conserved in available vertebrate species. In addition, this alteration is predicted to be deleterious by in silico analysis. Based on the supporting evidence, this alteration is interpreted as a disease-causing mutation. -

This variant changes one of the conserved glycine residues within the Gly-Xaa-Yaa repeat motifs of the triple helical domain of the COL3A1 protein. Although functional studies have not been reported for this variant, conserved glycine residues within the Gly-Xaa-Yaa repeats are required for the structural stability of fibrillar collagens (PMID: 7695699, 8218237, 19344236) and missense variants occurring at these glycine residues have been associated with disease (PMID: 24922459, 25758994). Computational prediction suggests that this variant may have deleterious impact on protein structure and function. This variant has been reported in multiple unrelated individuals affected with vascular Ehlers Danlos syndrome (PMID: 18043893, 24399159, 24650746, 30474650, 31126764, 36977837, 37068529, 37655064). It has been shown that this variant segregates with disease in multiple affected individuals in one family (PMID: 36977837). This variant has also been reported in multiple individuals in one family affected with aortic aneurysm (PMID: 2243125). This variant has not been identified in the general population by the Genome Aggregation Database (gnomAD). Based on the available evidence, this variant is classified as Pathogenic. -
