Ambry Genetics	RCV001180581	SCV000738525	benign	Familial thoracic aortic aneurysm and aortic dissection	2024-04-11	criteria provided, single submitter	clinical testing	This alteration is classified as benign based on a combination of the following: seen in unaffected individuals, population frequency, intact protein function, lack of segregation with disease, co-occurrence, RNA analysis, in silico models, amino acid conservation, lack of disease association in case-control studies, and/or the mechanism of disease or impacted region is inconsistent with a known cause of pathogenicity.
Labcorp Genetics (formerly Invitae), Labcorp	RCV000634709	SCV000756044	uncertain significance	Ehlers-Danlos syndrome, type 4	2024-01-26	criteria provided, single submitter	clinical testing	This sequence change replaces asparagine, which is neutral and polar, with aspartic acid, which is acidic and polar, at codon 76 of the COL3A1 protein (p.Asn76Asp). This variant is present in population databases (rs142045411, gnomAD 0.01%). This missense change has been observed in individual(s) with lacunar stroke (PMID: 31719132). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 519601). Advanced modeling of protein sequence and biophysical properties (such as structural, functional, and spatial information, amino acid conservation, physicochemical variation, residue mobility, and thermodynamic stability) performed at Invitae indicates that this missense variant is not expected to disrupt COL3A1 protein function with a negative predictive value of 95%. 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.
Illumina Laboratory Services, Illumina	RCV000634709	SCV001298980	benign	Ehlers-Danlos syndrome, type 4	2018-01-12	criteria provided, single submitter	clinical testing	This variant was observed in the ICSL laboratory as part of a predisposition screen in an ostensibly healthy population. It had not been previously curated by ICSL or reported in the Human Gene Mutation Database (HGMD: prior to June 1st, 2018), and was therefore a candidate for classification through an automated scoring system. Utilizing variant allele frequency, disease prevalence and penetrance estimates, and inheritance mode, an automated score was calculated to assess if this variant is too frequent to cause the disease. Based on the score and internal cut-off values, a variant classified as benign is not then subjected to further curation. The score for this variant resulted in a classification of benign for this disease.
Color Diagnostics, LLC DBA Color Health	RCV001180581	SCV001345540	uncertain significance	Familial thoracic aortic aneurysm and aortic dissection	2022-12-20	criteria provided, single submitter	clinical testing	This missense variant replaces asparagine with aspartic acid at codon 76 of the COL3A1 protein. Computational prediction suggests that this variant may not impact protein structure and function (internally defined REVEL score threshold <= 0.5, PMID: 27666373). To our knowledge, functional studies have not been reported for this variant. This variant has been reported in an individual affected with lacunar stroke (PMID: 31719132). This variant has been identified in 19/282052 chromosomes in the general population by the Genome Aggregation Database (gnomAD). The available evidence is insufficient to determine the role of this variant in disease conclusively. Therefore, this variant is classified as a Variant of Uncertain Significance.
Women's Health and Genetics/Laboratory Corporation of America, LabCorp	RCV001251398	SCV001426984	likely benign	not specified	2020-07-20	criteria provided, single submitter	clinical testing	Variant summary: COL3A1 c.226A>G (p.Asn76Asp) results in a conservative amino acid change located in the von Willebrand factor (VWF) type C domain (IPR001007) of the encoded protein sequence. Four of fvie in-silico tools predict a benign effect of the variant on protein function. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 6.7e-05 in 282052 control chromosomes, predominantly at a frequency of 0.00012 within the Non-Finnish European subpopulation in the gnomAD database. The observed variant frequency within Non-Finnish European control individuals in the gnomAD database is approximately 80-fold of the estimated maximal expected allele frequency for a pathogenic variant in COL3A1 causing Ehlers-Danlos Syndrome, Vascular Type phenotype (1.5e-06), strongly suggesting that the variant is a benign polymorphism found primarily in populations of Non-Finnish European origin. The variant, c.226A>G, has been reported in the literature in an individual affected with lacunar stroke (Tan_2019). This report however, does not provide unequivocal conclusions about association of the variant with Ehlers-Danlos Syndrome, Vascular Type. To our knowledge, no experimental evidence demonstrating an impact on protein function has been reported. Four clinical diagnostic laboratories have submitted clinical-significance assessments for this variant to ClinVar after 2014 without evidence for independent evaluation, and 3 classified the variant as VUS, while one called it as benign. Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as likely benign.
