Genes affected
EFEMP2 (HGNC:3219): (EGF containing fibulin extracellular matrix protein 2) A large number of extracellular matrix proteins have been found to contain variations of the epidermal growth factor (EGF) domain and have been implicated in functions as diverse as blood coagulation, activation of complement and determination of cell fate during development. The protein encoded by this gene contains four EGF2 domains and six calcium-binding EGF2 domains. This gene is necessary for elastic fiber formation and connective tissue development. Defects in this gene are cause of an autosomal recessive cutis laxa syndrome. Alternatively spliced transcript variants have been identified for this gene. [provided by RefSeq, Jan 2011]

Submissions by phenotype

Cutis laxa, autosomal recessive, type 1B Uncertain:1
Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingInvitaeDec 29, 2016Algorithms developed to predict the effect of missense changes on protein structure and function output the following: (SIFT: "Deleterious"; PolyPhen-2: "Benign"; Align-GVGD: "Class C0"). The methionine amino acid residue is found in multiple mammalian species, suggesting that this missense change does not adversely affect protein function. These predictions have not been confirmed by published functional studies. In summary, this variant is a rare missense change that is not predicted to affect protein function, but has an uncertain effect on mRNA splicing. This variant is not anticipated to cause disease; however, the available evidence is currently insufficient to prove that conclusively. Therefore, it has been classified as a Variant of Uncertain Significance. Algorithms developed to predict the effect of sequence changes on RNA splicing suggest that this variant may alter RNA splicing, but this prediction has not been confirmed by published transcriptional studies. This variant is not present in population databases (ExAC no frequency) and has not been reported in the literature in individuals with an EFEMP2-related disease. This sequence change replaces threonine with methionine at codon 37 of the EFEMP2 protein (p.Thr37Met). The threonine residue is highly conserved and there is a moderate physicochemical difference between threonine and methionine. -
Cardiovascular phenotype Uncertain:1
Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingAmbry GeneticsMar 24, 2022The p.T37M variant (also known as c.110C>T), located in coding exon 1 of the EFEMP2 gene, results from a C to T substitution at nucleotide position 110. The threonine at codon 37 is replaced by methionine, an amino acid with similar properties. This amino acid position is conserved. In addition, the in silico prediction for this alteration is inconclusive. Since supporting evidence is limited at this time, the clinical significance of this alteration remains unclear. -
