Genes affected

SMAD3 (HGNC:6769): (SMAD family member 3) The SMAD family of proteins are a group of intracellular signal transducer proteins similar to the gene products of the Drosophila gene 'mothers against decapentaplegic' (Mad) and the C. elegans gene Sma. The SMAD3 protein functions in the transforming growth factor-beta signaling pathway, and transmits signals from the cell surface to the nucleus, regulating gene activity and cell proliferation. This protein forms a complex with other SMAD proteins and binds DNA, functioning both as a transcription factor and tumor suppressor. Mutations in this gene are associated with aneurysms-osteoarthritis syndrome and Loeys-Dietz Syndrome 3. [provided by RefSeq, May 2022]

Variant summary: SMAD3 c.870C>T (p.Ile290Ile) alters a nucleotide located close to a canonical splice site and therefore could affect mRNA splicing, leading to a significantly altered protein sequence. 5/5 computational tools predict no significant impact on normal splicing. However, these predictions have yet to be confirmed by functional studies. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 0.016 in 246116 control chromosomes, predominantly at a frequency of 0.024 within the Non-Finnish European subpopulation in the gnomAD database, including 29 homozygotes. The observed variant frequency within Non-Finnish European control individuals in the gnomAD database is approximately 640 fold of the estimated maximal expected allele frequency for a pathogenic variant in SMAD3 causing Aortopathy phenotype (3.8e-05), strongly suggesting that the variant is a benign polymorphism found primarily in populations of Non-Finnish European origin. To our knowledge, no occurrence of c.870C>T in individuals affected with Aortopathy and no experimental evidence demonstrating its impact on protein function have been reported. Five ClinVar submissions (evaluation after 2014) cite the variant four times as benign and once as likely benign. Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as benign. -

Significance: Benign

Review Status: criteria provided, single submitter

Collection Method: clinical testing

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. -
