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.C1895R variant (also known as c.5683T>C), located in coding exon 46 of the FBN1 gene, results from a T to C substitution at nucleotide position 5683. The cysteine at codon 1895 is replaced by arginine, an amino acid with highly dissimilar properties, and is located in the cb EGF-like #28 domain. This variant was reported in a patient with Marfan syndrome (Arbustini E et al, Hum Mutat. 2005 Nov; 26(5):494), as well as another individual with features of connective tissue disorder (Oh MR et al, Pediatr Int. 2000 Oct; 42(5):488-91). This variant was not reported in population based cohorts in the following databases: Database of Single Nucleotide Polymorphisms (dbSNP), NHLBI Exome Sequencing Project (ESP), and 1000 Genomes Project. In the ESP, this variant was not observed in 6494 samples (12988 alleles) with coverage at this position. This amino acid position is highly conserved in available vertebrate species. In addition, this alteration is predicted to be probably damaging and deleterious by PolyPhen and SIFT in silico analyses, respectively. Based on internal structural analysis, this variant results in a loss of the C1895-C1905 disulfide bond and is anticipated to result in a significant decrease in structural stability (Downing AK et al, Cell. 1996 May; 85(4):597-605). The majority of FBN1 mutations identified to date have involved the substitution or generation of cysteine residues within cbEGF domains (Vollbrandt T et al. J Biol Chem. 2004;279(31):32924-32931). Based on the majority of available evidence to date, this variant is likely to be pathogenic. -

This variant is not present in population databases (ExAC no frequency). For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. 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). Algorithms developed to predict the effect of missense changes on protein structure and function are either unavailable or do not agree on the potential impact of this missense change (SIFT: "Deleterious"; PolyPhen-2: "Possibly Damaging"; Align-GVGD: "Class C0"). This variant has been observed in individual(s) with Marfan syndrome (PMID: 11059536, 16222657, 29357934). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 237100). This sequence change replaces cysteine with arginine at codon 1895 of the FBN1 protein (p.Cys1895Arg). The cysteine residue is highly conserved and there is a large physicochemical difference between cysteine and arginine. -
