RCV001852280 | SCV002275810 | likely pathogenic | Marfan syndrome; Familial thoracic aortic aneurysm and aortic dissection | 2021-06-11 | criteria provided, single submitter | clinical testing | This variant disrupts the p.Asp1404 amino acid residue in FBN1. Other variant(s) that disrupt this residue have been determined to be pathogenic (PMID: 9338581). This suggests that this residue is clinically significant, and that variants that disrupt this residue are likely to be disease-causing. In summary, the currently available evidence indicates that the variant is pathogenic, but additional data are needed to prove that conclusively. Therefore, this variant has been classified as Likely Pathogenic. Nucleotide substitutions within the consensus splice site are a relatively common cause of aberrant splicing (PMID: 17576681, 9536098). Algorithms developed to predict the effect of sequence changes on RNA splicing suggest that this variant may disrupt the consensus splice site, but this prediction has not been confirmed by published transcriptional studies. This sequence change replaces aspartic acid with asparagine at codon 1404 of the FBN1 protein (p.Asp1404Asn). The aspartic acid residue is highly conserved and there is a small physicochemical difference between aspartic acid and asparagine. This variant also falls at the last nucleotide of exon 34, which is part of the consensus splice site for this exon. This variant is not present in population databases (ExAC no frequency). This variant has been observed in individual(s) with Marfan syndrome (Invitae). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 200040). Algorithms developed to predict the effect of missense changes on protein structure and function are either unavailable or do not agree on the potential impact of this missense change (SIFT: "Deleterious"; PolyPhen-2: "Probably Damaging"; Align-GVGD: "Class C0"). |
