Genes affected
FGFR3 (HGNC:3690): (fibroblast growth factor receptor 3) This gene encodes a member of the fibroblast growth factor receptor (FGFR) family, with its amino acid sequence being highly conserved between members and among divergent species. FGFR family members differ from one another in their ligand affinities and tissue distribution. A full-length representative protein would consist of an extracellular region, composed of three immunoglobulin-like domains, a single hydrophobic membrane-spanning segment and a cytoplasmic tyrosine kinase domain. The extracellular portion of the protein interacts with fibroblast growth factors, setting in motion a cascade of downstream signals, ultimately influencing mitogenesis and differentiation. This particular family member binds acidic and basic fibroblast growth hormone and plays a role in bone development and maintenance. Mutations in this gene lead to craniosynostosis and multiple types of skeletal dysplasia. [provided by RefSeq, Aug 2017]

This sequence change replaces glutamic acid, which is acidic and polar, with lysine, which is basic and polar, at codon 627 of the FGFR3 protein (p.Glu627Lys). This variant is present in population databases (rs200849753, gnomAD 0.03%), and has an allele count higher than expected for a pathogenic variant. This variant has not been reported in the literature in individuals affected with FGFR3-related conditions. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 221944). Invitae Evidence Modeling of protein sequence and biophysical properties (such as structural, functional, and spatial information, amino acid conservation, physicochemical variation, residue mobility, and thermodynamic stability) has been performed for this missense variant. However, the output from this modeling did not meet the statistical confidence thresholds required to predict the impact of this variant on FGFR3 protein function. In summary, the available evidence is currently insufficient to determine the role of this variant in disease. Therefore, it has been classified as a Variant of Uncertain Significance. -

Variant summary: FGFR3 c.1879G>A (p.Glu627Lys) results in a conservative amino acid change located in the Protein kinase domain (IPR000719) of the encoded protein sequence. Three of five in-silico tools predict a damaging effect of the variant on protein function. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 0.00018 in 250138 control chromosomes. This frequency is not significantly higher than estimated for a pathogenic variant in FGFR3 causing Achondroplasia, allowing no conclusion about variant significance. c.1879G>A has been reported in the literature in at-least three individuals affected with disorders/differences of sex development and ocular developmental anomalies, without strong evidence for causality (Zidoune_2022, Chassaing_2016). These report(s) do not provide unequivocal conclusions about association of the variant with Achondroplasia. 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: 26893459, 36110220). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 221944). Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as uncertain significance. -
