Genes affected
COL3A1 (HGNC:2201): (collagen type III alpha 1 chain) This gene encodes the pro-alpha1 chains of type III collagen, a fibrillar collagen that is found in extensible connective tissues such as skin, lung, uterus, intestine and the vascular system, frequently in association with type I collagen. Mutations in this gene are associated with Ehlers-Danlos syndrome type IV, and with aortic and arterial aneurysms. [provided by R. Dalgleish, Feb 2008]

ACMG classification

Classification was made for transcript

Our verdict: Pathogenic. The variant received 12 ACMG points.

PVS1
Splicing +-2 bp (donor or acceptor) variant, product NOT destroyed by NMD, known LOF gene, truncates exone, which is 0.012269938 fraction of the gene. Cryptic splice site detected, with MaxEntScore 3.8, offset of -44, new splice context is: ctgGTcagc. Cryptic site results in frameshift change. If cryptic site found is not functional and variant results in exon loss, it results in inframe change.
PM2
Very rare variant in population databases, with high coverage;
PP5
Variant 2-189007939-G-A is Pathogenic according to our data. Variant chr2-189007939-G-A is described in ClinVar as Pathogenic. ClinVar VariationId is 101132.Status of the report is criteria_provided_multiple_submitters_no_conflicts, 2 stars.

Variant summary: COL3A1 c.3417+1G>A is located in a canonical splice-site and is predicted to affect mRNA splicing resulting in a significantly altered protein due to either exon skipping, shortening, or inclusion of intronic material. Several computational tools predict a significant impact on normal splicing: Four predict the variant abolishes a canonical 5' splicing donor site. At least one publication reports experimental evidence that this variant indeed affects mRNA splicing and results in the in-frame skipping of exon 46 (e.g. PMID:22019127). This is expected to affect the triple-helical region of the encoded protein and alterations of glycine residues within the collagen triple-helix are common mechanisms of disease. The variant was absent in 251444 control chromosomes (gnomAD). c.3417+1G>A has been reported in the literature in individuals affected with Ehlers-Danlos Syndrome, Vascular Type (PMID: 22019127, 24922459). These data indicate that the variant is likely associated with disease. Two submitters have provided clinical-significance assessments for this variant to ClinVar after 2014 and both classified the variant as pathogenic. Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as pathogenic. -

This sequence change affects a donor splice site in intron 46 of the COL3A1 gene. RNA analysis indicates that disruption of this splice site induces altered splicing and likely results in a shortened protein product. This variant is not present in population databases (gnomAD no frequency). Disruption of this splice site has been observed in individuals with clinical features of Ehlers-Danlos syndrome (PMID: 22019127, 24922459; Invitae). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 101132). Studies have shown that disruption of this splice site results in skipping of exon 46, but is expected to preserve the integrity of the reading-frame (PMID: 22019127). This variant disrupts the triple helix domain of COL3A1. Glycine residues within the Gly-Xaa-Yaa repeats of the triple helix domain are required for the structure and stability of fibrillar collagens (PMID: 7695699, 8218237, 19344236). In COL3A1, variants that affect these glycine residues are significantly enriched in individuals with disease (PMID: 24922459, 25758994) compared to the general population (ExAC). For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. -
