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.

The p.Y2466C variant (also known as c.7397A>G), located in coding exon 59 of the FBN1 gene, results from an A to G substitution at nucleotide position 7397. The tyrosine at codon 2466 is replaced by cysteine, an amino acid with highly dissimilar properties, and is located in the cb EGF-like #38 domain. This amino acid position is well conserved in available vertebrate species. In addition, the in silico prediction for this alteration is inconclusive. The majority of FBN1 mutations identified to date have involved the substitution or generation of cysteine residues within cbEGF domains (Vollbrandt T et al. J Biol Chem. 2004;279(31):32924-32931). However, since supporting evidence is limited at this time, the clinical significance of this variant remains unclear. Family studies may help to elucidate the clinical impact of this alteration. -

This variant generates a cysteine residue in an epidermal-growth-factor (EGF)–like domain of the FBN1 protein. Cysteine residues in these domains have been shown to be involved in the formation of disulfide bridges, which are critical for FBN1 protein structure and stability (PMID: 4750422, 16677079). Cysteine creating variants in these domains have been shown to affect protein stability and are overrepresented among individuals with Marfan syndrome (PMID: 15161917, 16571647, 17701892). In summary, this variant is a novel missense change that is predicted to affect protein stability and function. However, the available evidence is currently insufficient to determine its role in disease. Therefore, it has been classified as a Variant of Uncertain Significance. 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: "Probably Damaging"; Align-GVGD: "Class C0"). This variant has not been reported in the literature in individuals with FBN1-related disease. This variant is not present in population databases (ExAC no frequency). This sequence change replaces tyrosine with cysteine at codon 2466 of the FBN1 protein (p.Tyr2466Cys). The tyrosine residue is moderately conserved and there is a large physicochemical difference between tyrosine and cysteine. -
