Genes affected

SMAD3 (HGNC:6769): (SMAD family member 3) The SMAD family of proteins are a group of intracellular signal transducer proteins similar to the gene products of the Drosophila gene 'mothers against decapentaplegic' (Mad) and the C. elegans gene Sma. The SMAD3 protein functions in the transforming growth factor-beta signaling pathway, and transmits signals from the cell surface to the nucleus, regulating gene activity and cell proliferation. This protein forms a complex with other SMAD proteins and binds DNA, functioning both as a transcription factor and tumor suppressor. Mutations in this gene are associated with aneurysms-osteoarthritis syndrome and Loeys-Dietz Syndrome 3. [provided by RefSeq, May 2022]

ACMG classification

Verdict is Pathogenic. Variant got 17 ACMG points.

• PM1: In a domain MH2 (size 193) in uniprot entity SMAD3_HUMAN there are 36 pathogenic changes around while only 0 benign (100%) in NM_005902.4
• PM2: Very rare variant in population databases, with high coverage
• PP2: Missense variant in the SMAD3 gene, where missense mutations are typically associated with disease (based on misZ statistic). The gene has 29 curated pathogenic missense variants (we use a threshold of 10). The gene has 14 curated benign missense variants. Gene score misZ: 3.4782 (above the threshold of 3.09). Trascript score misZ: 4.3526 (above the threshold of 3.09). GenCC associations: The gene is linked to familial thoracic aortic aneurysm and aortic dissection, aneurysm-osteoarthritis syndrome.
• PP3: MetaRNN computational evidence supports a deleterious effect, 0.984
• PP5: Variant 15-67181297-G-A is Pathogenic according to our data. Variant chr15-67181297-G-A is described in ClinVar as [Likely_pathogenic]. Clinvar id is 30311.Status of the report is criteria_provided_multiple_submitters_no_conflicts, 2 stars. Variant chr15-67181297-G-A is described in Lovd as [Pathogenic].

Significance: Likely pathogenic

Review Status: criteria provided, single submitter

Collection Method: clinical testing

This c.715G>A (p.Glu239Lys) variant in the SMAD3 gene has been reported in multiple patients with thoracic aortic disorders [PMID 21778426, 25644172, 25555948]. Among them, this variant was detected in three affected siblings, all carriers, while another sibling was unaffected and non carrier [PMID 21778426]. This variant is conserved in mammals. While not clinically validated, computer-based algorithms SIFT and Polyphen-2 predict the protein change to be deleterious. It is thus classified as likely pathogenic. -

This sequence change replaces glutamic acid, which is acidic and polar, with lysine, which is basic and polar, at codon 239 of the SMAD3 protein (p.Glu239Lys). This variant is not present in population databases (gnomAD no frequency). This missense change has been observed in individuals with SMAD3-related conditions (PMID: 21778426, 25555948, 30739908, 35487415; internal data). It has also been observed to segregate with disease in related individuals. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 30311). 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) indicates that this missense variant is expected to disrupt SMAD3 protein function with a positive predictive value of 80%. In 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. -
