Variant summary

Our verdict is Benign. The variant received -8 ACMG points: 0P and 8B. BA1

This summary comes from the ClinGen Evidence Repository: The NM_00138 c.4640C>T, is a missense variant in FBN1 predicted to cause a substitution of a threonine by isoleucine at amino acid 1547 (p.Thr1547Ile). This variant was found one proband with Marfan syndrome (PMID 24793577) and in three apparently unrelated probands with features of Marfan syndrome (PMID 24793577, internal data). In one of these individuals with features of Marfan syndrome, this variant was also detected in the proband’s mother and sister, both of whom had a systemic score of 9, however relatedness of these individuals was not confirmed (internal data). This variant was also identified in an individual with features of Marfan syndrome but no diagnosis who also carried a pathogenic variant in FBN1, c.3193delG p.Glu1065Lysfs*23 (PMID 29543232). The variant in FBN1 has been reported 17 times in ClinVar: 6 times as uncertain significance and 11 times as likely benign (Variation ID: 42367). This variant has been identified in 37 individuals of Latino/Admixed American origin in gnomAD v3.1.2 (MAF: 0.24%) (BA1; https://gnomad.broadinstitute.org/). Computational prediction tools and conservation analysis are unclear on the predicted impact on the protein (REVEL: 0.375). The constraint z-score for missense variants affecting FBN1 is 5.06, however due to the presence of benign arguments PP2 cannot be used. In summary, this variant meets criteria to be classified as benign for Marfan syndrome based on the ACMG/AMP criteria applied, as specified by the ClinGen FBN1 VCEP: BA1.

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 NM_00138 c.4640C>T, is a missense variant in FBN1 predicted to cause a substitution of a threonine by isoleucine at amino acid 1547 (p.Thr1547Ile). This variant was found one proband with Marfan syndrome (PMID 24793577) and in three apparently unrelated probands with features of Marfan syndrome (PMID 24793577, internal data). In one of these individuals with features of Marfan syndrome, this variant was also detected in the proband’s mother and sister, both of whom had a systemic score of 9, however relatedness of these individuals was not confirmed (internal data). This variant was also identified in an individual with features of Marfan syndrome but no diagnosis who also carried a pathogenic variant in FBN1, c.3193delG p.Glu1065Lysfs*23 (PMID 29543232). The variant in FBN1 has been reported 17 times in ClinVar: 6 times as uncertain significance and 11 times as likely benign (Variation ID: 42367). This variant has been identified in 37 individuals of Latino/Admixed American origin in gnomAD v3.1.2 (MAF: 0.24%) (BA1; https://gnomad.broadinstitute.org/). Computational prediction tools and conservation analysis are unclear on the predicted impact on the protein (REVEL: 0.375). The constraint z-score for missense variants affecting FBN1 is 5.06, however due to the presence of benign arguments PP2 cannot be used. In summary, this variant meets criteria to be classified as benign for Marfan syndrome based on the ACMG/AMP criteria applied, as specified by the ClinGen FBN1 VCEP: BA1. -

This missense variant replaces threonine with isoleucine at codon 1547 of the FBN1 protein. Computational prediction suggests that this variant may not impact protein structure and function (internally defined REVEL score threshold <= 0.5, PMID: 27666373). To our knowledge, functional studies have not been performed for this variant. This variant has been reported in an individual with suspected Marfan syndrome (PMID: 24793577) and in an individual with aneurysm of the thoracic aorta (PMID: 29543232). This variant has been identified in 9/282682 chromosomes in the general population by the Genome Aggregation Database (gnomAD). The available evidence is insufficient to determine the role of this variant in disease conclusively. Therefore, this variant is classified as a Variant of Uncertain Significance. -

The p.T1547I variant (also known as c.4640C>T), located in coding exon 37 of the FBN1 gene, results from a C to T substitution at nucleotide position 4640. The threonine at codon 1547 is replaced by isoleucine, an amino acid with similar properties. This alteration has been reported in a subject with features of Marfan syndrome (Lerner-Ellis JP et al. Mol Genet Metab, 2014 Jun;112:171-6). This amino acid position is not well conserved in available vertebrate species. In addition, the in silico prediction for this alteration is inconclusive. Since supporting evidence is limited at this time, the clinical significance of this alteration remains unclear. -

Variant summary: FBN1 c.4640C>T (p.Thr1547Ile) results in a non-conservative amino acid change located in the TGF-beta binding (TB) domain (IPR017878) of the encoded protein sequence. Three of five in-silico tools predict a benign effect of the variant on protein function. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 5.1e-05 in 1614156 control chromosomes, predominantly at a frequency of 0.00098 within the Latino subpopulation in the gnomAD database (gnomAD v4.1.0). The observed variant frequency within Latino control individuals in the gnomAD database is approximately 8.7 fold of the estimated maximal expected allele frequency for a pathogenic variant in FBN1 causing Marfan Syndrome phenotype (0.00011). c.4640C>T has been reported in the literature in a Latino individual suspected of Marfan Syndrome based on the old Ghent criteria (Lerner-Ellis_ 2014). The variant was also reported in a patient with aortic aneurysm who also carried a truncating FBN1 variant (FBN1 c.3193delG, p.Glu1065fsX23) that could explain the phenotype (Weerakkody_2018). To our knowledge, no experimental evidence demonstrating an impact on protein function has been reported. The following publications have been ascertained in the context of this evaluation (PMID: 24793577, 29543232). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 42367). Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as likely benign. -

The p.Thr1547Ile variant in FBN1 is classified as benign because it has been identified in 0.2% (37/15268) of Admixed American chromosomes by gnomAD (http://gnomad.broadinstitute.org, v.3.1.2). This variant was classified as Benign on Jun 15, 2023 by the ClinGen-approved FBN1 Variant Curation expert panel (Variation ID 42367). ACMG/AMP Criteria applied: BA1. -

The FBN1 c.4640C>T variant is predicted to result in the amino acid substitution p.Thr1547Ile. This variant has been reported in individuals with Marfan syndrome or features of Marfan syndrome (Tables S1 and S6, Lerner-Ellis et al. 2014. PubMed ID: 24793577; Supplementary Tables, Weerakkody et al. 2018. PubMed ID: 29543232; Table S1, Baudhuin et al. 2019. PubMed ID: 31227806). This variant is reported in 0.014% of alleles in individuals of Latino descent in gnomAD (http://gnomad.broadinstitute.org/variant/15-48760242-G-A) and has conflicting interpretations regarding its pathogenicity in ClinVar, raning from uncertain significance to likely benign (https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/clinvar/variation/42367/). At this time, the clinical significance of this variant is uncertain due to the absence of conclusive functional and genetic evidence. -
