GeneDx RCV000254863 SCV000322260 pathogenic not provided 2021-01-29 criteria provided, single submitter clinical testing Not observed in large population cohorts (Lek et al., 2016); Nonsense variant predicted to result in protein truncation or nonsense mediated decay in a gene for which loss-of-function is a known mechanism of disease; Published functional studies using induced pluripotent stem cells demonstrated that this variant decreases FBN1 protein expression, impairs osteogenesis, reduces contractility and alters calcium signaling in derivative mesenchymal stem cells and/or vascular smooth muscle cells (Park et al., 2017); Reported in ClinVar as pathogenic (ClinVar Variant ID# 265401; Landrum et al., 2016); This variant is associated with the following publications: (PMID: 25525159, 26272055, 29357934, 29543232, 10464652, 12203992, 12068374, 19293843, 22005308, 19618372, 19533785, 16222657, 17657824, 28539832)

Women's Health and Genetics/Laboratory Corporation of America, LabCorp RCV000590228 SCV000695488 pathogenic Marfan Syndrome/Loeys-Dietz Syndrome/Familial Thoracic Aortic Aneurysms and Dissections 2017-03-20 criteria provided, single submitter clinical testing Variant summary: The FBN1 c.2581C>T (p.Arg861X) variant results in a premature termination codon, predicted to cause a truncated or absent FBN1 protein due to nonsense mediated decay, which are commonly known mechanisms for disease. This variant is absent in 121196 control chromosomes (ExAC). Multiple publications cite the variant in affected individuals, along with multiple clinical diagnostic laboratories/reputable databases classified this variant as pathogenic. Taken together, this variant is classified as pathogenic.
Ambry Genetics RCV000614836 SCV000738785 pathogenic Familial thoracic aortic aneurysm and aortic dissection 2018-10-29 criteria provided, single submitter clinical testing The p.R861* pathogenic mutation (also known as c.2581C>T), located in coding exon 21 of the FBN1 gene, results from a C to T substitution at nucleotide position 2581. This changes the amino acid from an arginine to a stop codon within coding exon 21. This alteration has been reported in multiple individuals with Marfan syndrome (MFS) or MFS-related phenotypes (Liu WO et al. Genet Test. 1997-1998;1(4):237-42; Schrijver I et al. Am J Hum Genet. 2002;71(2):223-37; Arbustini E et al. Hum Mutat. 2005;26(5):494; Stheneur C et al. Eur J Hum Genet. 2009;17(9):1121-8; Katzke S et al. Hum Mutat 2002; 20(3):197-208; Magyar I et al. Hum Mutat. 2009;30(9):1355-64; Guo J et al. Sci Rep. 2015;5:13115). One study of patient-derived induced pluripotent stem cells exhibiting this mutation reported impact to microfibril formation, osteogenesis, contractility, and calcium influx, with rescue of some defects in mutation-corrected cells (Park JW et al. Int J Biol Sci. 2017;13(5):588-603). In addition to the clinical data presented in the literature, this alteration is expected to result in loss of function by premature protein truncation or nonsense-mediated mRNA decay. As such, this alteration is interpreted as a disease-causing mutation.

This variant is not present in large control databases. This variant is present in ClinVar, with several labs classifying this variant as pathogenic (Variation ID:265401). Evolutionary conservation and computational predictive tools for this variant are limited or unavailable. This variant creates a premature stop at this codon which results in an absent or abnormal protein. Loss of function variants are a known mechanism of disease for this gene (Dietz 2017 PMID: 20301510). In summary, this variant is classified as pathogenic.
Labcorp Genetics (formerly Invitae), Labcorp RCV000810561 SCV000950774 pathogenic Marfan syndrome; Familial thoracic aortic aneurysm and aortic dissection 2023-09-26 criteria provided, single submitter clinical testing This variant is not present in population databases (gnomAD no frequency). This sequence change creates a premature translational stop signal (p.Arg861*) in the FBN1 gene. It is expected to result in an absent or disrupted protein product. Loss-of-function variants in FBN1 are known to be pathogenic (PMID: 17657824, 19293843). This premature translational stop signal has been observed in individual(s) with Marfan syndrome, clinical features consistent with Marfan syndrome, or thoracic aortic aneurysm and dissection and Marfan syndrome (PMID: 2005308, 10464652, 16222657, 17657824, 19293843, 26272055). In at least one individual the variant was observed to be de novo. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 265401). For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic.
