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]

ACMG classification

Verdict is Likely_pathogenic. Variant got 7 ACMG points.

• PM2: Very rare variant in population databases, with high coverage
• PP2: Missense variant in the ACTA2 gene, where missense mutations are typically associated with disease (based on misZ statistic). The gene has 27 curated pathogenic missense variants (we use a threshold of 10). The gene has 0 curated benign missense variants. Trascript score misZ: 4.6117 (above the threshold of 3.09). GenCC associations: The gene is linked to familial thoracic aortic aneurysm and aortic dissection, connective tissue disorder, aortic aneurysm, familial thoracic 6, multisystemic smooth muscle dysfunction syndrome, Moyamoya disease 5.
• PP3: MetaRNN computational evidence supports a deleterious effect, 0.983

Algorithms developed to predict the effect of missense changes on protein structure and function do not agree on the potential impact of this missense change (SIFT: "Deleterious"; PolyPhen-2: "Benign"; Align-GVGD: "Class C65"). This variant is not present in population databases (ExAC no frequency) and has not been reported in the literature in individuals with a ACTA2-related disease. This sequence change replaces glycine with arginine at codon 25 of the ACTA2 protein (p.Gly25Arg). The glycine residue is highly conserved and there is a moderate physicochemical difference between glycine and arginine. Algorithms developed to predict the effect of sequence changes on RNA splicing suggest that this variant may alter RNA splicing, but this prediction has not been confirmed by published transcriptional studies. In summary, this variant is a novel missense change with uncertain impact on protein function. It has been classified as a Variant of Uncertain Significance. -
