Genes affected
TGFBR1 (HGNC:11772): (transforming growth factor beta receptor 1) The protein encoded by this gene forms a heteromeric complex with type II TGF-beta receptors when bound to TGF-beta, transducing the TGF-beta signal from the cell surface to the cytoplasm. The encoded protein is a serine/threonine protein kinase. Mutations in this gene have been associated with Loeys-Dietz aortic aneurysm syndrome (LDAS). Multiple transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been found for this gene. [provided by RefSeq, Aug 2008]

This sequence change replaces asparagine, which is neutral and polar, with serine, which is neutral and polar, at codon 478 of the TGFBR1 protein (p.Asn478Ser). This variant is present in population databases (rs141259922, gnomAD 0.05%), and has an allele count higher than expected for a pathogenic variant. This missense change has been observed in individual(s) with clinical features of TGFBR1-related conditions (PMID: 16928994, 25116393, 25907466, 25985138, 28550590). This variant is also known as c.1202A>G (p.N401S). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 161393). Invitae Evidence Modeling of protein sequence and biophysical properties (such as structural, functional, and spatial information, amino acid conservation, physicochemical variation, residue mobility, and thermodynamic stability) indicates that this missense variant is not expected to disrupt TGFBR1 protein function with a negative predictive value of 80%. 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. -

The p.N478S variant (also known as c.1433A>G), located in coding exon 9 of the TGFBR1 gene, results from an A to G substitution at nucleotide position 1433. The asparagine at codon 478 is replaced by serine, an amino acid with highly similar properties. This alteration has been reported in Loeys-Dietz syndrome cohorts and thoracic aortic aneurysm and dissection (TAAD) cohorts; however, clinical details were limited in some cases (Loeys BL et al. N. Engl. J. Med., 2006 Aug;355:788-98; Wellbrock J et al. PLoS ONE, 2014 Aug;9:e104742); Proost D et al. Hum. Mutat., 2015 Aug;36:808-14). This amino acid position is highly conserved in available vertebrate species. In addition, the in silico prediction for this alteration is inconclusive. Since supporting evidence is limited at this time, the clinical significance of this alteration remains unclear. -

The TGFBR1 c.1433A>G; p.Asn478Ser variant (rs141259922), also known as N401S, is reported in individuals with Loeys-Dietz syndrome or thoracic aortic aneurysm and dissection (Loeys 2006, Proost 2015, Wellbrock 2014). In one individual with Loeys-Dietz syndrome, the variant was also detected in their unaffected father (Loeys 2006). The p.Asn478Ser variant is reported in ClinVar (Variation ID: 161393). It is observed in the general population with an overall allele frequency of 0.027% (77/281886 alleles) in the Genome Aggregation Database (v.2.1.1). Computational analyses are uncertain whether this variant is neutral or deleterious (REVEL: 0.656). Due to limited information, the clinical significance of this variant is uncertain at this time.

Variant summary: TGFBR1 c.1433A>G (p.Asn478Ser) results in a conservative amino acid change located in the Protein kinase domain (IPR000719) of the encoded protein sequence. Three of five in-silico tools predict a benign effect of the variant on protein function. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 0.00029 in 250492 control chromosomes. The observed variant frequency is approximately 156 fold of the estimated maximal expected allele frequency for a pathogenic variant in TGFBR1 causing Loeys-Dietz Syndrome phenotype (1.9e-06), strongly suggesting that the variant is benign. c.1433A>G has been reported in the literature in individuals affected with Loeys-Dietz Syndrome and unspecified neurodevelopmental diseases, without strong evidence for causality (Alotibi_2023, Loeys_2006). These report(s) do not provide unequivocal conclusions about association of the variant with Loeys-Dietz Syndrome. To our knowledge, no experimental evidence demonstrating an impact on protein function has been reported. The following publications have been ascertained in the context of this evaluation (PMID: 36937954, 16928994). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 161393). Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as likely benign. -

Collection Method:clinical testing

This missense variant replaces asparagine with serine at codon 478 of the TGFBR1 protein. Computational prediction is inconclusive regarding the impact of this variant on protein structure and function (internally defined REVEL score threshold 0.5 < inconclusive < 0.7, PMID: 27666373). To our knowledge, functional studies have not been reported for this variant. This variant has been reported in individuals affected with Loeys-Dietz syndrome (PMID: 16928994, 2511639, 25985138), in individuals affected with Marfan-related disorders (PMID: 21358634, 25907466, 28550590) and in individuals affected with thoracic aortic aneurysm (PMID: 25907466, 28550590). This variant has been reported in an unaffected individual and his son showing a phenotype that is not consistent with Loeys-Dietz syndrome (Alsubaie 2018). This variant occurs at an appreciable frequency in the general population and has been identified in 77/281886 chromosomes (61/128464 non-Finnish European chromosomes) by the Genome Aggregation Database (gnomAD). The available evidence is insufficient to determine the role of this variant in disease conclusively. Therefore, this variant is classified as a Variant of Uncertain Significance. -

The TGFBR1 c.1433A>G variant is predicted to result in the amino acid substitution p.Asn478Ser. This variant was reported in at least two individuals with Loeys-Dietz syndrome, in one of the cases this variant was found also in an unaffected father (Loeys et al. 2006. PubMed ID: 16928994; Wellbrock et al. 2014. PubMed ID: 25116393). This variant was also reported in an individual with thoracic aortic aneurysm (Proost et al. 2015. PubMed ID: 25907466). Furthermore, this variant was reported as a variant of unknown significance by large exome and genome studies, documented as an incidental finding (reported as p.Asn401Ser; Amendola et al. 2015. PubMed ID: 25637381 Table S1; Taylor et al. 2015. PubMed ID: 25985138 Table S10) and by an exome study of families with breast cancer (Maxwell et al. 2016. PubMed ID: 27153395 Table S5). This variant is reported in 0.047% of alleles in individuals of European (Non-Finnish) descent in gnomAD , which is higher than would be expected for causative variant. At this time, the clinical significance of this variant is uncertain due to the absence of conclusive functional and genetic evidence. -
