Variant summary

This summary comes from the ClinGen Evidence Repository: NM_000552.5(VWF):c.4130C>T is a missense variant in VWF that replaces alanine with valine at position 1377. At least 1 patient with this variant, in combination with p.Arg1379Cys (ClinVar 100333; Pathogenic VWD type 1) in cis, displayed excessive mucocutaneous bleeding as well as laboratory phenotypes of a normal multimer pattern, low VWF:RCo/VWF:Ag ratio (0.6 to 0.7), and decreased GP1b binding assay which together are highly specific for VWD type 2M (PP4_moderate, PMID:27785872). The p.Ala1377Val and p.Arg1379Cys variants have been reported in cis in 3 additional probands with high mucocutaneous bleeding as well as laboratory phenotypes of a normal multimer pattern, low VWF:RCo/VWF:Ag ratio (0.6 to 0.7), and decreased GP1b binding assay, but the four patients from Milan show the same short tandem repeats nearby, indicating the possibility of a common ancestor. The proband of Family VIII (PMID:35452508) has 3 additional type 2M diagnosed individuals, 2 are counted here with VWF Act/ VWF:Ag ratio <=0.42 (the other is 0.75). Each individual is heterozygous for p.A1377V; p.R1379C (PP1). The Grpmax filtering allele frequency of this variant in gnomAD v4.1 is 0.001967 (based on 170/75034 alleles in the African / African-American population), which is lower than the ClinGen VWD VCEP threshold for BS1 (>0.01) and higher than the threshold for PM2_Supporting (<0.0001). GP1b-alpha binding assay performed with recombinant VWF expressed by HEK-293 cells showed severely decreased binding when p.Ala1377Val was combined with the p.Arg1379Cys variant, indicating that the combination of these two variants has a damaging effect on protein function. PS3_Supporting was not met because the individual p.Ala1377Val and p.Arg1379Arg mutants showed approximately wild-type binding to GpIb-alpha (PMID:27785872). The computational predictor REVEL gives a score of 0.805, which is above the ClinGen VWD VCEP threshold of >0.644 and predicts a damaging effect on VWF function (PP3). In summary, this variant meets the criteria to be classified as a variant of unknown significance for hereditary von Willebrand disease based on the ACMG/AMP criteria applied, as specified by the ClinGen VWD VCEP: PP4_Moderate, PP3, PP1.

Variant summary: VWF c.4130C>T (p.Ala1377Val) results in a non-conservative amino acid change located in the von Willebrand factor, type A (IPR002035) of the encoded protein sequence. Five of five in-silico tools predict a damaging effect of the variant on protein function. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 0.00021 in 250788 control chromosomes. c.4130C>T has been reported in the literature in individuals affected with Von Willebrand Disease, without strong evidence for causality (example, Maas_2022). These report(s) do not provide unequivocal conclusions about association of the variant with Von Willebrand Disease. Co-occurrences with other pathogenic variant(s) have been reported in four individuals affected with Von Willebrand Disease (in cis along with VWF c.4135C>T, p.Arg1379Cys), providing supporting evidence for a benign role (Pagliari_2016). At least one publication reports experimental evidence evaluating an impact on protein function. The most pronounced variant effect results in about 50% of normal VWF levels in medium and cell lysates using an ELISA assay (Pagliari_2016). The following publications have been ascertained in the context of this evaluation (PMID: 34758185, 27785872). Three submitters have cited clinical-significance assessments for this variant to ClinVar after 2014 (VUS, n=2, Likely benign, n=1). Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as uncertain significance. -

The VWF c.4130C>T; p.Ala1377Val variant (rs141211612, ClinVar Variation ID: 619750) is reported in the literature an individual with von Willebrand disease type 1 (VWD; Alzahrani 2023) and an individual with VWD type 2M that had a second VWF variant detected with a normal multimer pattern (Maas 2022). Additionally, four individuals with VWD type 2M were found to have a VWF variant (p.Arg1379Cys) in cis to p.Ala1377Val, and all had nearly normal multimer patterns (Pagliari 2016). In vitro functional analyses of the Ala1377Val mutant found slightly decreased expression but slightly increased binding to recombinant glycoprotein Iba; however, the Ala1377Val-Arg1379Cys mutant decreased recombinant glycoprotein Iba binding (Pagliari 2016). The p.Ala1377Val variant is found in the African/African-American population with an allele frequency of 0.25% (62/24,834 alleles) in the Genome Aggregation Database (v2.1.1). Computational analyses predict that this variant is deleterious (REVEL: 0.805). However, given the lack of clinical and functional data of p.Ala1377Val in isolation, the significance of this variant is uncertain at this time. References: Alzahrani FM et al.

The PALB2 c.503C>A (p.Ser168*) variant causes the premature termination of PALB2 protein synthesis. This variant has been reported in the published literature in an individual with Type 1 (PMID: 37168293 (2023)) and individuals/families with Type 2M Von Willebrand Disease (PMIDs: 27785872 (2016), 34758185 (2022), 35452508 (2022), and 36754679 (2023)). Functional studies found that this variant did not compromise vWF capacity to bind the GpIba receptor, resulted in normal vWF protein levels and normal multimers (PMIDs: 27785872 (2016) and 34758185 (2022)). However, inconclusive functional evidence for the variant showed either normal (PMID: 27785872 (2016)) or reduced vWF activity (PMID: 34758185 (2022)) with enhanced VWF clearance (PMID: 36754679 (2023)). This variant has not been reported in large, multi-ethnic general populations (Genome Aggregation Database, http://gnomad.broadinstitute.org). Based on the available information, this variant is classified as pathogenic. -
