Genes affected
FBLN5 (HGNC:3602): (fibulin 5) The protein encoded by this gene is a secreted, extracellular matrix protein containing an Arg-Gly-Asp (RGD) motif and calcium-binding EGF-like domains. It promotes adhesion of endothelial cells through interaction of integrins and the RGD motif. It is prominently expressed in developing arteries but less so in adult vessels. However, its expression is reinduced in balloon-injured vessels and atherosclerotic lesions, notably in intimal vascular smooth muscle cells and endothelial cells. Therefore, the protein encoded by this gene may play a role in vascular development and remodeling. Defects in this gene are a cause of autosomal dominant cutis laxa, autosomal recessive cutis laxa type I (CL type I), and age-related macular degeneration type 3 (ARMD3).

This sequence change replaces arginine, which is basic and polar, with glutamine, which is neutral and polar, at codon 71 of the FBLN5 protein (p.Arg71Gln). This variant is present in population databases (rs121434300, gnomAD 0.005%). This missense change has been observed in individual(s) with age-related macular degeneration (PMID: 15269314). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 5478). An algorithm developed to predict the effect of missense changes on protein structure and function (PolyPhen-2) suggests that this variant is likely to be disruptive. Experimental studies have shown that this missense change does not substantially affect FBLN5 function (PMID: 20007835). In summary, the available evidence is currently insufficient to determine the role of this variant in disease. Therefore, it has been classified as a Variant of Uncertain Significance. -
