Variant summary
Our verdict is Likely benign. The variant received -5 ACMG points: 0P and 5B. BP6BS2
The NM_001999.4(FBN2):c.2252A>C(p.Glu751Ala) variant causes a missense change involving the alteration of a conserved nucleotide. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 0.000122 in 1,601,290 control chromosomes in the GnomAD database, with no homozygous occurrence. Variant has been reported in ClinVar as Conflicting classifications of pathogenicity (no stars). Another variant affecting the same amino acid position, but resulting in a different missense (i.e. E751D) has been classified as Uncertain significance.

Submissions by phenotype
Congenital contractural arachnodactyly Uncertain:1Benign:1
This variant was observed as part of a predisposition screen in an ostensibly healthy population. A literature search was performed for the gene, cDNA change, and amino acid change (where applicable). No publications were found based on this search. Allele frequency data from public databases did not allow this variant to be ruled in or out of causing disease. Therefore, this variant is classified as a variant of unknown significance. -

Familial thoracic aortic aneurysm and aortic dissection Uncertain:1
The p.E751A variant (also known as c.2252A>C), located in coding exon 17 of the FBN2 gene, results from an A to C substitution at nucleotide position 2252. The glutamic acid at codon 751 is replaced by alanine, an amino acid with dissimilar properties. This variant has been detected in an individual from an autism spectrum cohort (Li J et al. Mol Psychiatry, 2017 09;22:1282-1290). This amino acid position is highly conserved in available vertebrate species. In addition, this alteration is predicted to be deleterious by in silico analysis. Since supporting evidence is limited at this time, the clinical significance of this alteration remains unclear. -
not provided Uncertain:1
Not reported in association with an FBN2-related phenotype; In silico analysis supports that this missense variant has a deleterious effect on protein structure/function; Occurs in exon 17, whereas the vast majority of pathogenic variants in the FBN2 gene reported to date in association with congenital contractural arachnodactyly occur within exons 24-33 (PMID: 17935213); This variant is associated with the following publications: (PMID: 28831199, 17935213) -

not specified Benign:1
Variant summary: FBN2 c.2252A>C (p.Glu751Ala) results in a non-conservative amino acid change located in the TB domain (IPR017878) 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 6e-05 in 249248 control chromosomes. The observed variant frequency is approximately 48 fold of the estimated maximal expected allele frequency for a pathogenic variant in FBN2 causing Aortopathy phenotype (1.3e-06). c.2252A>C has been reported in the literature in an individual affected with autism (example: Li_2017). This report does not provide unequivocal conclusions about association of the variant with Aortopathy. To our knowledge, no experimental evidence demonstrating an impact on protein function has been reported. The following publication has been ascertained in the context of this evaluation (PMID: 28831199). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 380412). Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as likely benign. -
