Genes affected

FBN1 (HGNC:3603): (fibrillin 1) This gene encodes a member of the fibrillin family of proteins. The encoded preproprotein is proteolytically processed to generate two proteins including the extracellular matrix component fibrillin-1 and the protein hormone asprosin. Fibrillin-1 is an extracellular matrix glycoprotein that serves as a structural component of calcium-binding microfibrils. These microfibrils provide force-bearing structural support in elastic and nonelastic connective tissue throughout the body. Asprosin, secreted by white adipose tissue, has been shown to regulate glucose homeostasis. Mutations in this gene are associated with Marfan syndrome and the related MASS phenotype, as well as ectopia lentis syndrome, Weill-Marchesani syndrome, Shprintzen-Goldberg syndrome and neonatal progeroid syndrome.

Collection Method: clinical testing

The p.C2659* pathogenic mutation (also known as c.7977C>A), located in coding exon 63 of the FBN1 gene, results from a C to A substitution at nucleotide position 7977. This changes the amino acid from a cysteine to a stop codon within coding exon 63. This alteration has been reported in an individual with some Marfan-like features (Magyar I et al. Hum. Mutat., 2009 Sep;30:1355-64). In addition to the clinical data presented in the literature, this alteration is expected to result in loss of function by premature protein truncation or nonsense-mediated mRNA decay. As such, this alteration is interpreted as a disease-causing mutation. -

Significance: Pathogenic

Review Status: criteria provided, single submitter

Collection Method: clinical testing

For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. Loss-of-function variants in FBN1 are known to be pathogenic (PMID: 17657824, 19293843). This variant has been reported in an individual affected with incomplete Marfan syndrome (PMID: 19618372). This variant is not present in population databases (ExAC no frequency). This sequence change creates a premature translational stop signal (p.Cys2659*) in the FBN1 gene. It is expected to result in an absent or disrupted protein product. -
