Genes affected

FBN1 (HGNC:3603): (fibrillin 1) This gene encodes a member of the fibrillin family of proteins. The encoded preproprotein is proteolytically processed to generate two proteins including the extracellular matrix component fibrillin-1 and the protein hormone asprosin. Fibrillin-1 is an extracellular matrix glycoprotein that serves as a structural component of calcium-binding microfibrils. These microfibrils provide force-bearing structural support in elastic and nonelastic connective tissue throughout the body. Asprosin, secreted by white adipose tissue, has been shown to regulate glucose homeostasis. Mutations in this gene are associated with Marfan syndrome and the related MASS phenotype, as well as ectopia lentis syndrome, Weill-Marchesani syndrome, Shprintzen-Goldberg syndrome and neonatal progeroid syndrome.

The p.D1238H variant (also known as c.3712G>C), located in coding exon 29 of the FBN1 gene, results from a G to C substitution at nucleotide position 3712. The amino acid change results in aspartic acid to histidine at codon 1238, an amino acid with similar properties. However, this change occurs in the last base pair of coding exon 29, which makes it likely to have some effect on normal mRNA splicing. A different alteration located at the same position, p.D1238N, has been reported in thoracic aortic aneurysm and dissection (TAAD) testing cohorts with limited clinical information provided, including one unaffected individual with family history of TAAD (Yuan B et al. Hum. Mutat., 1999;14:440-6; Hicks KL et al. J. Vasc. Surg., 2018 09;68:701-711). An alternate substitution at this codon, p.D1238G, has been reported in a Marfan syndrome cohort (Tiecke F et al. Eur. J. Hum. Genet., 2001 Jan;9:13-21). This amino acid position is highly conserved in available vertebrate species. Using the BDGP and ESEfinder splice site prediction tools, this alteration is predicted to weaken the efficiency of the native splice donor site; however, direct evidence is unavailable. In addition, this alteration is predicted to be deleterious by in silico analysis. In addition, the p.D1238H alteration is predicted to be deleterious by in silico analysis. Since supporting evidence is limited at this time, the clinical significance of this alteration remains unclear. -

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.Asp1238 amino acid residue in FBN1. Other variant(s) that disrupt this residue have been determined to be pathogenic (PMID: 10533071; Invitae). This suggests that this residue is clinically significant, and that variants that disrupt this residue are likely to be disease-causing. Variants that disrupt the consensus splice site are a relatively common cause of aberrant splicing (PMID: 17576681, 9536098). Algorithms developed to predict the effect of sequence changes on RNA splicing suggest that this variant may create or strengthen a splice site. Algorithms developed to predict the effect of missense changes on protein structure and function (SIFT, PolyPhen-2, Align-GVGD) all suggest that this variant is likely to be disruptive. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 1305067). This variant has not been reported in the literature in individuals affected with FBN1-related conditions. This variant is not present in population databases (gnomAD no frequency). This sequence change replaces aspartic acid, which is acidic and polar, with histidine, which is basic and polar, at codon 1238 of the FBN1 protein (p.Asp1238His). This variant also falls at the last nucleotide of exon 30, which is part of the consensus splice site for this exon. -
