Genes affected
LTBP4 (HGNC:6717): (latent transforming growth factor beta binding protein 4) The protein encoded by this gene binds transforming growth factor beta (TGFB) as it is secreted and targeted to the extracellular matrix. TGFB is biologically latent after secretion and insertion into the extracellular matrix, and sheds TGFB and other proteins upon activation. Defects in this gene may be a cause of cutis laxa and severe pulmonary, gastrointestinal, and urinary abnormalities. Three transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been found for this gene.[provided by RefSeq, May 2010]
LTBP4 Gene-Disease associations (from GenCC):
  • cutis laxa with severe pulmonary, gastrointestinal and urinary anomalies

This sequence change creates a premature translational stop signal (p.Leu85Argfs*15) in the LTBP4 gene. It is expected to result in an absent or disrupted protein product. Loss-of-function variants in LTBP4 are known to be pathogenic (PMID: 19836010, 22829427). This variant is present in population databases (rs747013505, gnomAD 0.02%). This variant has not been reported in the literature in individuals affected with LTBP4-related conditions. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 189236). For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. -

Review Status:criteria provided, single submitter
Collection Method:clinical testing

Has not been previously published as pathogenic or benign in association with a LTBP4-related disorder to our knowledge; 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: 25714468, 28654958, 30487145, 29565423, 29030401, 31256874, 31589614) -

Cutis laxa with severe pulmonary, gastrointestinal and urinary anomalies Pathogenic:1
Jan 17, 2014
Laboratory for Molecular Medicine, Mass General Brigham Personalized Medicine
Significance:Pathogenic
Review Status:criteria provided, single submitter
Collection Method:clinical testing

The Leu85ArgfsX15 variant in LTBP4 has not been previously reported in individuals with autosomal recessive cutis laxa type I, but has been identified in 1/5840 of European American chromosomes by the NHLBI Exome Sequencing Project (http://evs.gs.washington.edu/EVS/). Although this variant has been seen in the general population, its frequency is low enough to be consistent with a recessive carrier frequency. This frameshift variant is predicted to alter the protein’s amino acid sequence beginning at position 85 and lead to a premature termination codon 15 amino acids downstream. This alteration is then predicted to lead to a truncated or absent protein. Loss of LTBP4 function has previously been desribed in homozygous and compound heterozygous individuals with autosomal recessive cutis laxa type IC (Urban 2009, Callewaert 2013). In summary, this variant meets our criteria to be classified as pathogenic for autosomal recessive cutis laxa type IC (http://pcpgm.partners.org/LMM). -
