This summary comes from the ClinGen Evidence Repository: NM_000552.4(VWF):c.4789C>T (p.Arg1597Trp) missense variant has been identified in at least 40 probands reported to have type 2A VWD. This variant has been reported in at least 16 probands meeting PP4 laboratory phenotype criteria. (PS4_VeryStrong; PMIDs: 31939074, 22102197, 26791163, 27214365, 22329792, 14630825, 33807613, 23702511, 25689060, 27766062, 1380739, 16961623, 19277422, 22871923, 23355534). At least one patient with this variant displayed excessive mucocutaneous bleeding as well as laboratory phenotypes of very low VWF activity (VWF:RCo 11%), low VWF:RCo/VWF:Ag ratio of 0.28, and loss of high molecular weight multimers, which together are highly specific for VWD type 2A. Additionally, a normal RIPA assay was reported for this patient (PP4_moderate, PMID:25689060 Patient 7). The variant has been reported to segregate with VWD type 2A through >2 affected meioses in at least 2 families (PP1_moderate; PMID:22329792, 27766062). This variant has been identified as a de novo occurrence with unconfirmed parental relationships in at least 1 individual with VWD type 2A (PS2_supporting; PMID:27214365). The Grpmax filtering allele frequency in gnomAD v4.1 is 0 which is lower than the ClinGen VWD VCEP threshold of <0.0001 (PM2_Supporting), a single allele is present in the European (Finnish) population. ADAMTS susceptibility assay, in 293 EBNA cells and hydrodynamic mouse model, expressing recombinant R1597W VWF showed increased susceptibility indicating that this variant has a damaging effect on protein function and the hydrodynamic model is a strong recapitulation human patients with a multimer profile was skewed toward lower molecular weight multimers, reduced VWF:Ag, and reduced thrombus formation. (PMID:16322474, 29186156, 22372972)(PS3). The computational predictor CADD gives a PHRED score of 27.4, which is above the ClinGen VWD VCEP threshold of >20 and predicts a damaging effect on VWF function (PP3). In summary, this variant meets the criteria to be classified as pathogenic for autosomal dominant VWD type 2A based on the ACMG/AMP criteria applied, as specified by the ClinGen VWD VCEP: PP1_moderate, PP4_moderate, PS4_VeryStrong, PP3, PM2_supporting, PS2_supporting, PS3.

Genes affected
VWF (HGNC:12726): (von Willebrand factor) This gene encodes a glycoprotein involved in hemostasis. The encoded preproprotein is proteolytically processed following assembly into large multimeric complexes. These complexes function in the adhesion of platelets to sites of vascular injury and the transport of various proteins in the blood. Mutations in this gene result in von Willebrand disease, an inherited bleeding disorder. An unprocessed pseudogene has been found on chromosome 22. [provided by RefSeq, Oct 2015]

It has been reported in heterozygous individuals with von Willebrand disease (VWD) type 2A in the published literature (PMID: 19277422 (2009) and 16322474 (2006)) and has been reported to segregate with VWD type 2A in a large family (PMID: 27766062 (2016)). In addition, functional studies have demonstrated that this variant is damaging to VWF protein functions (PMID: 29186156 (2017), 22372972 (2012), 18986390 (2008), 16322474 (2006)).

Variant summary: VWF c.4789C>T (p.Arg1597Trp) results in a non-conservative amino acid change located in the von Willebrand factor, type A domain (IPR002035) of the encoded protein sequence. Four of five in-silico tools predict a damaging effect of the variant on protein function. The variant was absent in 251162 control chromosomes (gnomAD). c.4789C>T has been reported in the literature in multiple individuals affected with Von Willebrand Disease and the variant segregated with disease (examples: Ginsburg_1989, Inbal_1992, Starke_2013, and Shen_2016). These data indicate that the variant is very likely to be associated with disease. Experimental evidence from in vitro and mouse model studies have demonstrated that this variant disrupts the normal activity of the protein (examples: Hassenpflug_2006, Xu_2013 and Pruss_2012). Seven clinical diagnostic laboratories have submitted clinical-significance assessments for this variant to ClinVar after 2014 and all classified the variant as pathogenic (n=6) and likely pathogenic (n=1). Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as pathogenic. -

The VWF c.4789C>T; p.Arg1597Trp variant (also known as Arg834Trp in the mature protein, rs61750117) has been reported in patients with type 2A Von Willebrand disease (VWD) (Baronciani 2006, Ginsburg 1989, Starke 2013) and segregated with disease in a three-generation family (Shen 2016). In vitro studies have shown that this variant results in increased susceptibility to ADAMTS13 cleavage (Hassenpflug 2006, Pruss 2012, Pruss 2008). It has also been shown that plasma samples from patients carrying this variant lack high molecular weight multimers of Von Willebrand factor (VWF) (Hassenpflug 2006, Starke 2013). This variant is reported as pathogenic in ClinVar (Variation ID: 285) and is absent from the general population databases (1000 Genomes Project, Exome Variant Server, Genome Aggregation Database), indicating it is not a common polymorphism. Additionally, several other variants at codon 1597 have been reported in patients with type 2A VWD (Donner 1993, Ginsburg 1993, Melo-Nava 2007, Veyradier 2016). The arginine at codon 1597 is highly conserved in the calcium-binding loop of VWF A2 domain (Xu 2013) and computational algorithms (PolyPhen-2, SIFT) predict this variant is deleterious. Based on the above information, this variant is classified as pathogenic. References: Baronciani L et al. von Willebrand factor collagen binding assay in von Willebrand disease type 2A, 2B, and 2M.
