RCV000461180 | SCV000541810 | pathogenic | Ehlers-Danlos syndrome, type 4 | 2016-08-08 | criteria provided, single submitter | clinical testing | This sequence change replaces glycine with valine at codon 1086 of the COL3A1 protein (p.Gly1086Val). The glycine residue is moderately conserved and there is a moderate physicochemical difference between glycine and valine. This variant is not present in population databases (ExAC no frequency) and has not been reported in the literature in individuals with a COL3A1-related disease. Glycine residues within the triple helix region are important for fibrillar collagens structure and stability (PMID: 7695699, 19344236). In the case of COL3A1 the majority of missense substitutions within the triple helix domain affect glycine residues (PMID: 24922459, 25758994). In addition, a variant affecting the same codon of the COL3A1 protein (p.Gly1086Cys) has been reported in an individual affected with vascular Ehlers-Danlos syndrome (PMID: 21699676). In summary, this variant is a novel missense change that removes one of the glycine residues within the triple helix of the COL3A1 protein which is required for structural stability. For these reasons, it has been classified as Pathogenic. |
