RCV000181654 | SCV000233957 | pathogenic | not provided | 2013-08-05 | criteria provided, single submitter | clinical testing | Although the c.2180dupG variant in the FBN1 gene has not been reported to our knowledge, this variant causes a shift in reading frame starting at codon Cysteine 727, changing it to a Tryptophan, and creating a premature stop codon at position 6 of the new reading frame, denoted p.Cys727TrpfsX6. This variant is expected to result in either an abnormal, truncated protein product or loss of protein from this allele through nonsense-mediated mRNA decay. Other frameshift variants in the FBN1 gene have been reported in association with Marfan syndrome. In summary, c.2180dupG in the FBN1 gene is interpreted as a pathogenic variant. |
