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.

Affects a cysteine residue within a calcium-binding EGF-like domain of the FBN1 gene, which may affect disulfide bonding and is predicted to alter the structure and function of the protein; cysteine substitutions in the calcium-binding EGF-like domains represent the majority of pathogenic missense changes associated with FBN1-related disorders (Collod-Beroud et al., 2003); Not observed at significant frequency in large population cohorts (gnomAD); In silico analysis supports that this missense variant has a deleterious effect on protein structure/function; This variant is associated with the following publications: (PMID: 7951214, 10486319, 27112580, 28941062) -

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

The p.Cys476Gly variant in FBN1 has been identified in at least 4 individuals with Marfan syndrome, segregated in 33 affected relatives from one family, and was absent in 19 unaffected family members from that same family (Piersall 1994, Somers 2016, Vatti 2017). In addition, this variant was absent from large population studies. Two other variants at the same position (p.Cys476Arg and p.Cys476Ser) have also been identified in individuals with Marfan syndrome, suggesting that changes at this position are not tolerated. Studies provide some evidence that this variant impacts protein function (Schrijver 1999). Furthermore, this variant affects a highly conserved cysteine residue in the EGF-like domains, which is a common finding in individuals with Marfan syndrome (Schrijver 1999). In summary, this variant meets criteria to be classified as pathogenic for autosomal dominant Marfan syndrome. ACMG/AMP Criteria applied: PP1_Strong; PM1; PM2; PS4_Moderate; PP3, PS3_Supporting. -

Variant summary: The FBN1 c.1426T>G (p.Cys476Gly) variant located in an EGF-like domain (via InterPro) alters a cysteine, which plays a key role in disulfide binding, important for proper fibrillin function. 4/4 in silico tools (SNPs&GO not captured here due to low reliability index) predict a damaging outcome, which is supported by a functional study, Schrijver_1999. The variant of interest was not observed in controls (ExAC, 1000 Gs, ESP, or publication controls) and has been reported in multiple affected individuals including a large family that segregates with disease, Piersall_1994. Multiple reputable clinical diagnostic laboratories/databases cite the variant as "pathogenic." Therefore, the variant of interest has been classified as Pathogenic. -

This sequence change replaces cysteine, which is neutral and slightly polar, with glycine, which is neutral and non-polar, at codon 476 of the FBN1 protein (p.Cys476Gly). This variant is not present in population databases (gnomAD no frequency). This missense change has been observed in individuals with Marfan syndrome (PMID: 7951214, 10486319, 27112580). It has also been observed to segregate with disease in related individuals. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 200179). Invitae Evidence Modeling of protein sequence and biophysical properties (such as structural, functional, and spatial information, amino acid conservation, physicochemical variation, residue mobility, and thermodynamic stability) indicates that this missense variant is expected to disrupt FBN1 protein function with a positive predictive value of 95%. This variant affects a cysteine residue in the EGF-like, TGFBP or hybrid motif domains of FBN1. Cysteine residues are believed to be involved in intramolecular disulfide bridges and have been shown to be important for FBN1 protein structure (PMID: 16905551, 19349279). In addition, missense substitutions affecting cysteine residues within these domains are significantly overrepresented among patients with Marfan syndrome (PMID: 16571647, 17701892). For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. -
