Variant summary
Our verdict is Benign. The variant received -13 ACMG points: 0P and 13B. BP4_StrongBP6BS1BS2
The NM_001999.4(FBN2):c.7012+6C>T variant causes a splice region, intron change involving the alteration of a non-conserved nucleotide. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 0.0000756 in 1,613,782 control chromosomes in the GnomAD database, with no homozygous occurrence. In-silico tool predicts a benign outcome for this variant. 3/3 splice prediction tools predict no significant impact on normal splicing. Variant has been reported in ClinVar as Conflicting classifications of pathogenicity (no stars).

Congenital contractural arachnodactyly Uncertain:1
This sequence change falls in intron 55 of the FBN2 gene. It does not directly change the encoded amino acid sequence of the FBN2 protein. It affects a nucleotide within the consensus splice site. This variant is present in population databases (rs749376421, 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 FBN2-related conditions. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 458777). Variants that disrupt the consensus splice site are a relatively common cause of aberrant splicing (PMID: 17576681, 9536098). Algorithms developed to predict the effect of sequence changes on RNA splicing suggest that this variant is not likely to affect RNA splicing. 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. -
not specified Benign:1

FBN2-related disorder Benign:1
This variant is classified as likely benign based on ACMG/AMP sequence variant interpretation guidelines (Richards et al. 2015 PMID: 25741868, with internal and published modifications). -
Congenital contractural arachnodactyly;C4015286:Macular degeneration, early-onset Benign:1
This variant has not been reported in the literature but is present in the Genome Aggregation Database (Highest MAF: 0.3% [42/15276] https://gnomad.broadinstitute.org/variant/5-128286712-G-A?dataset=gnomad_r3) and in ClinVar (Variation ID: 458777). Although this variant occurs in the splice region, computational prediction tools do not suggest that it alters splicing. However, further studies are needed to understand its impact. In summary, data on this variant suggests that this variant does not cause disease but requires further evidence. Therefore, this variant is classified as likely benign. -
