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.C1977Y variant (also known as c.5930G>A), located in coding exon 48 of the FBN1 gene, results from a G to A substitution at nucleotide position 5930. The cysteine at codon 1977 is replaced by tyrosine, an amino acid with highly dissimilar properties. This variant has been reported in subjects with features of FBN1-related disease (Loeys B et al. Hum Mutat, 2004 Aug;24:140-6; Qi M et al. Int Ophthalmol, 2022 Jul;42:2245-2253). 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). Internal structural analysis indicates this alteration eliminates a disulfide bond critical for the structural integrity of the cbEGF-30 domain (Ambry internal data). This amino acid position is highly conserved in available vertebrate species. In addition, this alteration is predicted to be deleterious by in silico analysis. This variant is considered to be rare based on population cohorts in the Genome Aggregation Database (gnomAD). Based on the majority of available evidence to date, this variant is likely to be pathogenic. -

This variant has been reported in individuals affected with Marfan syndrome (PMID: 9399842, 15241795). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 527152). Experimental studies indicate that this missense change causes EGF-l intradomain misfolding (PMID: 15371449). This variant affects a cysteine residue located within 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: 10486319, 3495735, 4750422, 16677079). In addition, missense substitutions within the FBN1 EGF-like domains affecting cysteine residues are significantly overrepresented among patients with Marfan syndrome (PMID: 16571647, 17701892). Two additional missense substitutions at this codon (p.Cys1977Arg, p.Cys1977Trp) have been reported in individuals affected with Marfan syndrome (PMID: 12161601, 18435798). For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. This variant is not present in population databases (ExAC no frequency). This sequence change replaces cysteine with tyrosine at codon 1977 of the FBN1 protein (p.Cys1977Tyr). The cysteine residue is highly conserved and there is a large physicochemical difference between cysteine and tyrosine. -
