RCV001379941 | SCV001577842 | likely pathogenic | Marfan syndrome; Familial thoracic aortic aneurysm and aortic dissection | 2016-07-05 | criteria provided, single submitter | clinical testing | This subgenic deletion has not been reported in the literature in individuals with a FBN1-related disease. This variant is a gross deletion of the genomic region encompassing exon 36 of the FBN1 gene. This leads to an in-frame deletion, preserving the integrity of the reading frame. For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Likely Pathogenic. Exon 36 codes for the EGF-like domain 21. Similar single-exon subgenic deletions affecting exons 30-33 (EGF-like domains 15-18) have been reported in individuals affected with Marfan syndrome (PMID: 25944730, 11175294, 18412115). |
