Variant summary

Our verdict is Pathogenic. The variant received 23 ACMG points: 23P and 0B. PS3PM1PM2PM5PP2PP3_StrongPP5_Very_Strong

The NM_001613.4(ACTA2):​c.772C>T​(p.Arg258Cys) variant causes a missense change involving the alteration of a conserved nucleotide. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 0.00000124 in 1,613,792 control chromosomes in the GnomAD database, with no homozygous occurrence. In-silico tool predicts a pathogenic outcome for this variant. 14/22 in silico tools predict a damaging outcome for this variant. Variant has been reported in ClinVar as Pathogenic (★★). ClinVar reports functional evidence for this variant: "SCV000541641: Experimental studies have shown that this missense change affects ACTA2 function (PMID:26153420)." and additional evidence is available in ClinVar. Another variant affecting the same amino acid position, but resulting in a different missense (i.e. R258H) has been classified as Likely pathogenic.

Genes affected
ACTA2 (HGNC:130): (actin alpha 2, smooth muscle) This gene encodes one of six different actin proteins. Actins are highly conserved proteins that are involved in cell motility, structure, integrity, and intercellular signaling. The encoded protein is a smooth muscle actin that is involved in vascular contractility and blood pressure homeostasis. Mutations in this gene cause a variety of vascular diseases, such as thoracic aortic disease, coronary artery disease, stroke, and Moyamoya disease, as well as multisystemic smooth muscle dysfunction syndrome.

STAMBPL1 (HGNC:24105): (STAM binding protein like 1) Predicted to enable Lys63-specific deubiquitinase activity and thiol-dependent deubiquitinase. Predicted to be involved in protein K63-linked deubiquitination. Located in membrane. [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Apr 2022]
ACTA2-AS1 (HGNC:45169): (ACTA2 antisense RNA 1)

ACMG classification

Classification was made for transcript

Our verdict: Pathogenic. The variant received 23 ACMG points.

PS3
PS3 evidence extracted from ClinVar submissions: SCV000541641: Experimental studies have shown that this missense change affects ACTA2 function (PMID: 26153420).; SCV000617608: Published functional studies demonstrate a damaging effect as this variant disrupts actin dynamics and leads to contractile dysfunction (PMID: 26153420, 28652363); SCV004812422: "This variant alters protein function in a dominant negative manner in both in vitro functional assays and patient fibroblasts (PMID: 26153420, 28652363)."; SCV005426728: Experimental analysis of this variant in patient-specific smooth muscle cells demonstrated a detrimental impact on protein stability and contractile function (PMID 26153420). A detrimental impact on cytoskeletal functions using patient-specific fibroblasts has also been reported (PMID 28652363).; SCV006064430: An in vitro functional study has shown that this variant may decrease contractile function by altering interactions with myosin and tropomyosin (PMID: 26153420). Another functional study using dermal fibroblasts derived from carrier individuals has shown that this variant suppresses myofibroblast migration and contraction (PMID: 28652363).
PM1
In a hotspot region, there are 3 aminoacids with missense pathogenic changes in the window of +-8 aminoacids around while only 0 benign, 11 uncertain in NM_001613.4
PM2
