Variant summary

Our verdict is Pathogenic. Variant got 19 ACMG points: 19P and 0B. PM1PM2PM5PP2PP3_StrongPP5_Very_Strong

The NM_000138.5(FBN1):​c.6689G>A​(p.Cys2230Tyr) variant causes a missense change involving the alteration of a conserved nucleotide. The variant was absent in control chromosomes in GnomAD project. In-silico tool predicts a pathogenic outcome for this variant. 11/18 in silico tools predict a damaging outcome for this variant. Variant has been reported in ClinVar as Likely pathogenic (★★). Another variant affecting the same amino acid position, but resulting in a different missense (i.e. C2230R) has been classified as Likely pathogenic.

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.

Familial thoracic aortic aneurysm and aortic dissection Pathogenic:1
Likely pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingAmbry GeneticsApr 20, 2021The p.C2230Y variant (also known as c.6689G>A), located in coding exon 54 of the FBN1 gene, results from a G to A substitution at nucleotide position 6689. The cysteine at codon 2230 is replaced by tyrosine, an amino acid with highly dissimilar properties. 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). Based on internal structural assessment, this alteration eliminates a structurally critical disulfide bond in the structurally sensitive cbEGF domain #34. Additionally, this alteration has been detected in individuals reported to have Marfan syndrome (Ambry internal data). This variant was not reported in population-based cohorts in the Genome Aggregation Database (gnomAD). This amino acid position is highly conserved in available vertebrate species. In addition, this alteration is predicted to be deleterious by in silico analysis. Based on the majority of available evidence to date, this variant is likely to be pathogenic. -

Marfan syndrome;C4707243:Familial thoracic aortic aneurysm and aortic dissection Pathogenic:1
Likely pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingInvitaeNov 07, 2018In summary, the currently available evidence indicates that the variant is pathogenic, but additional data are needed to prove that conclusively. Therefore, this variant has been classified as Likely Pathogenic. This variant affects a cysteine residue in the EGF-like, TGFBP or hybrid motif domains of FBN1. Cysteine residues are believed to be involved in intramolecular disulfide bridges and have been shown to be important for FBN1 protein structure (PMID: 16905551, 19349279). In addition, missense substitutions affecting cysteine residues within these domains are significantly overrepresented among patients with Marfan syndrome (PMID: 16571647, 17701892). This variant has not been reported in the literature in individuals with FBN1-related disease. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 493158). This variant is not present in population databases (ExAC no frequency). This sequence change replaces cysteine with tyrosine at codon 2230 of the FBN1 protein (p.Cys2230Tyr). The cysteine residue is highly conserved and there is a large physicochemical difference between cysteine and tyrosine. -
