Genes affected
FGFR2 (HGNC:3689): (fibroblast growth factor receptor 2) The protein encoded by this gene is a member of the fibroblast growth factor receptor family, where amino acid sequence is highly conserved between members and throughout evolution. FGFR family members differ from one another in their ligand affinities and tissue distribution. A full-length representative protein consists 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 is a high-affinity receptor for acidic, basic and/or keratinocyte growth factor, depending on the isoform. Mutations in this gene are associated with Crouzon syndrome, Pfeiffer syndrome, Craniosynostosis, Apert syndrome, Jackson-Weiss syndrome, Beare-Stevenson cutis gyrata syndrome, Saethre-Chotzen syndrome, and syndromic craniosynostosis. Multiple alternatively spliced transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been noted for this gene. [provided by RefSeq, Jan 2009]

not specified Uncertain:1
Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingWomen's Health and Genetics/Laboratory Corporation of America, LabCorpJan 08, 2024Variant summary: FGFR2 c.755C>T (p.Ser252Leu) results in a non-conservative amino acid change in the encoded protein sequence. Three of five in-silico tools predict a benign effect of the variant on protein function. c.755C>T has been reported in the literature in two independent families affected with Crouzon syndrome and the variant was present in both affected individuals as well as clinically normal family members (examples: Oldridge_1997, Oshini_2017). Additionally, this variant was seen in cis with a second pathogenic variant in a mother and her daughter affected with syndactyly (Wilkie_2002). At least one publication reports experimental evidence that FGFR2 mutant Ser252Leu exhibited kinetic behavior identical to wild-type (Anderson_1998). These data suggest a benign role for this variant however, other variants affecting this residue have been classified pathogenic/likely pathogenic in ClinVar (CV IDs: 13272, 13279). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 549484). The following publications have been ascertained in the context of this evaluation (PMID: 9002682, 9700203, 15282208, 11711827, 27683237, 12357470). Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as uncertain significance. -
FGFR2-related craniosynostosis Uncertain:1
Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingLabcorp Genetics (formerly Invitae), LabcorpJan 28, 2023This variant is also known as 934C>T. This missense change has been observed in individual(s) with FGFR2-related conditions (PMID: 9002682, 11711827, 27683237). This variant is present in population databases (rs79184941, gnomAD 0.01%), and has an allele count higher than expected for a pathogenic variant. This sequence change replaces serine, which is neutral and polar, with leucine, which is neutral and non-polar, at codon 252 of the FGFR2 protein (p.Ser252Leu). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 549484). 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. This variant disrupts the p.Ser252 amino acid residue in FGFR2. Other variant(s) that disrupt this residue have been determined to be pathogenic (PMID: 7719344, 8651276, 9462761, 11390973, 22664175, 23495007, 24489893, 25867380). This suggests that this residue is clinically significant, and that variants that disrupt this residue are likely to be disease-causing. Experimental studies are conflicting or provide insufficient evidence to determine the effect of this variant on FGFR2 function (PMID: 9700203). Advanced modeling of protein sequence and biophysical properties (such as structural, functional, and spatial information, amino acid conservation, physicochemical variation, residue mobility, and thermodynamic stability) performed at Invitae indicates that this missense variant is expected to disrupt FGFR2 protein function. -
FGFR2-related disorder Uncertain:1
Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingPreventionGenetics, part of Exact SciencesOct 04, 2022The FGFR2 c.755C>T variant is predicted to result in the amino acid substitution p.Ser252Leu. This variant has been reported in several individuals with Crouzon syndrome, but it has also been observed in clinically normal members with the families (Oldridge et al 1997. PubMed ID: 9002682; Sakai N et al 2001. PubMed ID: 11711827; Ohishi et al. 2016. PbuMed ID: 27683237). In one study, functional analysis of this variant revealed wild-type kinetic (Anderson J et al 1998. PubMed ID: 9700203). This variant is reported in 0.012% of alleles in individuals of African descent in gnomAD (http://gnomad.broadinstitute.org/variant/10-123279677-G-A). A different substitution affecting the same amino acid (p.Ser252Trp) has been reported in association with Apert syndrome (Human Gene Mutation Database; http://www.hgmd.cf.ac.uk/). At this time, the clinical significance of this variant is uncertain due to the absence of conclusive functional and genetic evidence. -
