Variant summary

Our verdict is Pathogenic. Variant got 11 ACMG points: 12P and 1B. PM2 PM5 PP5_Very_Strong BP4

The NM_021871.4(FGA):c.1717C>T(p.Arg573Cys) variant causes a missense change involving the alteration of a non-conserved nucleotide. The variant was absent in control chromosomes in GnomAD project. In-silico tool predicts a benign outcome for this variant. 10/13 in silico tools predict a benign outcome for this variant. Variant has been reported in ClinVar as Likely pathogenic (★★). Another variant affecting the same amino acid position, but resulting in a different missense (i.e. R573H) has been classified as Likely benign.

Genes affected

FGA (HGNC:3661): (fibrinogen alpha chain) This gene encodes the alpha subunit of the coagulation factor fibrinogen, which is a component of the blood clot. Following vascular injury, the encoded preproprotein is proteolytically processed by thrombin during the conversion of fibrinogen to fibrin. Mutations in this gene lead to several disorders, including dysfibrinogenemia, hypofibrinogenemia, afibrinogenemia and renal amyloidosis. Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants, at least one of which encodes an isoform that undergoes proteolytic processing. [provided by RefSeq, Jan 2016]

ACMG classification

Verdict is Pathogenic. Variant got 11 ACMG points.

• PM2: Very rare variant in population databases, with high coverage
• PM5: Other missense variant is known to change same aminoacid residue: Variant chr4-154585711-C-A is described in ClinVar as [Conflicting_classifications_of_pathogenicity]. Clinvar id is 16408.We mark this variant Likely_pathogenic, oryginal submissions are: {Likely_pathogenic=1, Uncertain_significance=1}.
• PP5: Variant 4-154585712-G-A is Pathogenic according to our data. Variant chr4-154585712-G-A is described in ClinVar as [Likely_pathogenic]. Clinvar id is 16411.Status of the report is criteria_provided_multiple_submitters_no_conflicts, 2 stars.
• BP4: Computational evidence support a benign effect (BayesDel_addAF=-0.210161).. Strength limited to SUPPORTING due to the PP5.
