Genes affected
TNXB (HGNC:11976): (tenascin XB) This gene encodes a member of the tenascin family of extracellular matrix glycoproteins. The tenascins have anti-adhesive effects, as opposed to fibronectin which is adhesive. This protein is thought to function in matrix maturation during wound healing, and its deficiency has been associated with the connective tissue disorder Ehlers-Danlos syndrome. This gene localizes to the major histocompatibility complex (MHC) class III region on chromosome 6. It is one of four genes in this cluster which have been duplicated. The duplicated copy of this gene is incomplete and is a pseudogene which is transcribed but does not encode a protein. The structure of this gene is unusual in that it overlaps the CREBL1 and CYP21A2 genes at its 5' and 3' ends, respectively. Multiple transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been found for this gene. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]

A Heterozygous Frameshift variant c.3290_3291delAA in Exon 8 of the TNXB gene that results in the amino acid substitution p.Lys1097fs*48 was identified. The observed variant has a minor allele frequency of 0.00002/0.00010 in gnomAD exomes and genomes, respectively. The severity of the impact of this variant on the protein is high, based on the effect of the protein and REVEL score . Rare Exome Variant Ensemble Learner (REVEL) is an ensembl method for predicting the pathogenicity of missense variants based on a combination of scores from 13 individual tools: MutPred, FATHMM v2.3, VEST 3.0, PolyPhen-2, SIFT, PROVEAN, MutationAssessor, MutationTaster, LRT, GERP++, SiPhy, phyloP, and phastCons. The REVEL score for an individual missense variant can range from 0 to 1, with higher scores reflecting greater likelihood that the variant is disease-causing. ClinVar has also classified this variant as Likely Pathogenic [Variant ID: 8550]. This mutation has been detected as homozygous in two individuals from an Ehlers-Danlos syndrome (EDS) cohort (Schalkwijk J et al. 2001). For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. -

The TNXB c.3290_3291delAA variant is predicted to result in a frameshift and premature protein termination (p.Lys1097Argfs*48). This variant has been reported to be pathogenic for autosomal recessive classical-like Ehlers-Danlos syndrome (EDS) (Fig. 4C of Schalkwijk et al. 2001. PubMed ID: 11642233). Of note, this variant has also been associated with hypermobility type EDS due to TNXB haploinsufficiency (reported as "[AA56063] del" in Zweers et al. 2003. PubMed ID: 12865992). This variant is reported in 0.0064% of alleles in individuals of European (Non-Finnish) descent in gnomAD. Frameshift variants in TNXB are expected to be pathogenic. This variant is interpreted as pathogenic. -

In a Letter to the Editor from the authors of Schalkwijk et al. (2001), the group reports additional workup on the family members of their previous cohort; authors observed that heterozygous family members were found to have significantly reduced tenascin X levels with a female-skewed preponderance for joint hypermobility (Zweers et al., 2003); Frameshift variant predicted to result in protein truncation or nonsense mediated decay in a gene for which loss-of-function is a known mechanism of disease; This variant is associated with the following publications: (PMID: 26582918, 11642233, 12865992) -

The c.3290_3291delAA pathogenic mutation, located in coding exon 7 of the TNXB gene, results from a deletion of two nucleotides at nucleotide positions 3290 to 3291, causing a translational frameshift with a predicted alternate stop codon (p.K1097Rfs*48). This mutation has been detected as homozygous in two individuals from an Ehlers-Danlos syndrome (EDS) cohort (Schalkwijk J et al. N. Engl. J. Med., 2001 Oct;345:1167-75). This alteration is expected to result in loss of function by premature protein truncation or nonsense-mediated mRNA decay. As such, this alteration is interpreted as a disease-causing mutation. -
