Genes affected
FGFR3 (HGNC:3690): (fibroblast growth factor receptor 3) This gene encodes a member of the fibroblast growth factor receptor (FGFR) family, with its amino acid sequence being highly conserved between members and among divergent species. FGFR family members differ from one another in their ligand affinities and tissue distribution. A full-length representative protein would consist of an extracellular region, composed of three immunoglobulin-like domains, a single hydrophobic membrane-spanning segment and a cytoplasmic tyrosine kinase domain. The extracellular portion of the protein interacts with fibroblast growth factors, setting in motion a cascade of downstream signals, ultimately influencing mitogenesis and differentiation. This particular family member binds acidic and basic fibroblast growth hormone and plays a role in bone development and maintenance. Mutations in this gene lead to craniosynostosis and multiple types of skeletal dysplasia. [provided by RefSeq, Aug 2017]

Based on the classification scheme VCGS_Germline_v1.3.5, this variant is classified as Pathogenic. Following criteria are met: 0101 - Gain of function is a known mechanism of disease in this gene and is associated with autosomal dominant skeletal dysplasias (OMIM). Additionally, autosomal recessive and dominant CATSHL syndrome (MIM#610474) is suspected to be due to variants with a loss of function and dominant negative mechanism, respectively (PMID: 25614871, 24864036). (I) 0108 - This gene is associated with both recessive and dominant disease (OMIM). (I) 0112 - The condition associated with this gene has incomplete penetrance. Individuals with Muenke syndrome have been shown to inherit pathogenic variants from an asymptomatic parent (PMID: 26740388, 18000976). (I) 0115 - Variants in this gene are known to have variable expressivity. There is a wide range of clinical symptoms with variable expressivity in LADD and Muenke syndrome patients, even within the same family (PMID: 26740388, 16501574). (I) 0200 - Variant is predicted to result in a missense amino acid change from lysine to glutamine. (I) 0251 - This variant is heterozygous. (I) 0304 - Variant is present in gnomAD (v4) <0.01 (2 heterozygotes, 0 homozygote). (SP) 0309 - Multiple alternative amino acid changes at the same position have been observed in gnomAD (v4) (4 heterozygotes, 0 homozygotes). (I) 0501 - Missense variant consistently predicted to be damaging by multiple in silico tools or highly conserved with a major amino acid change. (SP) 0600 - Variant is located in the annotated protein tyrosine and serine/threonine kinase domain (DECIPHER). (I) 0801 - This variant has strong previous evidence of pathogenicity in unrelated individuals. This variant has been classified as pathogenic by clinical laboratories. This variant has also been observed in multiple unrelated heterozygous individuals with hypochondroplasia and acanthosis nigricans, as well as hyperinsulinemia in one case (PMID: 31708465, 30168875, 21510009, 16912704, 18000903, 20453470, 11055896). (SP) 1205 - This variant has been shown to be maternally inherited (by trio analysis). (I) Legend: (SP) - Supporting pathogenic, (I) - Information, (SB) - Supporting benign

The variant is observed at an extremely low frequency in the gnomAD v2.1.1 dataset (total allele frequency: <0.001%). Predicted Consequence/Location: Missense changes are a common disease-causing mechanism. In silico tool predictions suggest damaging effect of the variant on gene or gene product [REVEL: 0.77 (>=0.6, sensitivity 0.68 and specificity 0.92); 3Cnet: 0.96 (>=0.6, sensitivity 0.72 and precision 0.9)]. Same nucleotide change resulting in same amino acid change has been previously reported as pathogenic/likely pathogenic with strong evidence (ClinVar ID: VCV000016348 /PMID: 11055896). Different missense changes at the same codon (p.Lys650Asn, p.Lys650Glu, p.Lys650Met, p.Lys650Thr) have been reported as pathogenic/likely pathogenic with strong evidence (ClinVar ID: VCV000016331, VCV000016341, VCV000016346, VCV000016347, VCV000065855 /PMID: 10671061, 11055896, 17875876, 7773297). Therefore, this variant is classified as Pathogenic according to the recommendation of ACMG/AMP guideline.

This sequence change replaces lysine, which is basic and polar, with glutamine, which is neutral and polar, at codon 650 of the FGFR3 protein (p.Lys650Gln). This variant is present in population databases (rs78311289, gnomAD 0.007%). This missense change has been observed in individual(s) with hypochondroplasia with or without acanthosis nigricans and/or hyperinsulinemia (PMID: 11055896, 16912704, 20453470, 21510009). In at least one individual the variant was observed to be de novo. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 16348). Invitae Evidence Modeling incorporating data from in vitro experimental studies (internal data) indicates that this missense variant is expected to disrupt FGFR3 function with a positive predictive value of 95%. Experimental studies have shown that this missense change affects FGFR3 function (PMID: 11055896). For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic.
