Genes affected

FREM2 (HGNC:25396): (FRAS1 related extracellular matrix 2) This gene encodes an integral membrane protein containing numerous CSPG (chondroitin sulfate proteoglycan element) repeats and Calx-beta domains. The encoded protein localizes to the basement membrane, forming a ternary complex that plays a role in epidermal-dermal interactions. This protein is important for the integrity of skin and renal epithelia. Mutations in this gene are associated with Fraser syndrome. [provided by RefSeq, Apr 2014]

Significance:Pathogenic

Review Status:criteria provided, single submitter

Collection Method:clinical testing

This variant has not been reported in the literature in individuals affected with FREM2-related conditions. This sequence change creates a premature translational stop signal (p.Arg2243*) in the FREM2 gene. It is expected to result in an absent or disrupted protein product. Loss-of-function variants in FREM2 are known to be pathogenic (PMID: 18203166, 26552811). This variant is present in population databases (rs767978562, gnomAD 0.002%). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 523570). For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. -

Significance:Likely pathogenic

Review Status:criteria provided, single submitter

Collection Method:clinical testing

Variant summary: FREM2 c.6727C>T (p.Arg2243X) results in a premature termination codon, predicted to cause a truncation of the encoded protein or absence of the protein due to nonsense mediated decay, which are commonly known mechanisms for disease. Truncations downstream of this position have been associated with Cryptophthalmos / Fraser syndrome in HGMD. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 8e-06 in 250332 control chromosomes. To our knowledge, no occurrence of c.6727C>T in individuals affected with Cryptophthalmos Syndrome and no experimental evidence demonstrating its impact on protein function have been reported. One clinical diagnostic laboratory has submitted clinical-significance assessments for this variant to ClinVar after 2014 without evidence for independent evaluation. One laboratory classified the variant as pathogenic. Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as likely pathogenic. -
