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 Uncertain:2

Ambry Genetics
Significance: Uncertain significance
Review Status: criteria provided, single submitter
Collection Method: clinical testing

The p.D1240N variant (also known as c.3718G>A), located in coding exon 30 of the FBN1 gene, results from a G to A substitution at nucleotide position 3718. The aspartic acid at codon 1240 is replaced by asparagine, an amino acid with highly similar properties, and is located in the cbEGF-like #16 domain. This amino acid position is highly 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. -

Significance: Uncertain significance
Review Status: criteria provided, single submitter
Collection Method: clinical testing

This missense variant replaces aspartic acid with asparagine at codon 1240 of the FBN1 protein. Computational prediction is inconclusive regarding the impact of this variant on protein structure and function (internally defined REVEL score threshold 0.5 < inconclusive < 0.7, PMID: 27666373). To our knowledge, functional studies have not been reported for this variant. This variant has not been reported in individuals affected with cardiovascular disorders in the literature. This variant has been identified in 8/250246 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. -

Significance: Uncertain significance
Review Status: criteria provided, single submitter
Collection Method: clinical testing

Variant summary: FBN1 c.3718G>A (p.Asp1240Asn) results in a conservative amino acid change located in the EGF-like domain (IPR000742) 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 3.2e-05 in 250246 control chromosomes. The available data on variant occurrences in the general population are insufficient to allow any conclusion about variant significance. To our knowledge, no occurrence of c.3718G>A in individuals affected with Marfan Syndrome and no experimental evidence demonstrating its impact on protein function have been reported. Four submitters have cited clinical-significance assessments for this variant to ClinVar after 2014. All submitters classified the variant as uncertain significance. Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as uncertain significance. -

Significance: Uncertain significance

Collection Method: clinical testing

Has not been previously published as pathogenic or benign to our knowledge; Identified in other patients referred for connective tissue genetic testing at GeneDx; one of these patients was found to harbor a second, pathogenic variant in FBN1, although the phase of these variants is unknown; Reported in ClinVar as a variant of uncertain significance (ClinVar Variant ID# 200024; Landrum et al., 2016); In silico analysis, which includes protein predictors and evolutionary conservation, supports a deleterious effect; Although located in a calcium-binding EGF-like domain of the FBN1 gene, it does not affect a cysteine residue within this domain; cysteine substitutions in the calcium-binding EGF-like domains represent the majority of pathogenic missense changes associated with FBN1-related disorders (Collod-Beroud et al., 2003). -

Collection Method: clinical testing

This sequence change replaces aspartic acid, which is acidic and polar, with asparagine, which is neutral and polar, at codon 1240 of the FBN1 protein (p.Asp1240Asn). This variant is present in population databases (rs573187346, gnomAD 0.02%). This variant has not been reported in the literature in individuals affected with FBN1-related conditions. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 200024). 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 FBN1 protein function with a positive predictive value of 95%. 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. -
