ClinGen FBN1 Variant Curation Expert Panel, ClinGen	RCV000663701	SCV003762202	uncertain significance	Marfan syndrome	2022-12-01	reviewed by expert panel	curation	NM00138 c.4214T>G is a missense variant in FBN1 predicted to cause a substitution of leucine by an arginine at amino acid position 1405. This variant has been reported 14 times in ClinVar: 7 times as likely benign and 7 times as of uncertain significance (Variation ID: 200041). This variant has been reported in the literature and identified by multiple institutions in probands with various features of connective tissue but none with a diagnosis of Marfan syndrome (PMID: 19012347; Mayo Clinic, Bichat Hospital, Universitair Ziekenhuis Gent, Universitair Ziekenhuis Antwerpen). In one family, this variant was found to segregate with mitral valve dystrophy in one family member (Bichat Hospital). This variant has been identified in 0.021% (27/129150) of alleles in the European population in gnomAD v2.1.1 (BS1; https://gnomad.broadinstitute.org/variant/15-48764870-A-C). Computational prediction and evolutionary conservation anaylsis tools are unclear about this variant predicted impact (REVEL = 0.726 which is below 0.750 threshold). Due to there being insufficient evidence, this variant is classified as uncertain significance for Marfan syndrome based on the ACMG/AMP criteria applied, as specified by the ClinGen FBN1 VCEP: BS1.

Women's Health and Genetics/Laboratory Corporation of America, LabCorp	RCV000505775	SCV000919336	likely benign	not specified	2024-09-16	criteria provided, single submitter	clinical testing	Variant summary: FBN1 c.4214T>G (p.Leu1405Arg) results in a non-conservative amino acid change located in the EGF-like domain (IPR000742) of the encoded protein sequence. Three of five in-silico tools predict a damaging effect of the variant on protein function. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 0.00011 in 251436 control chromosomes, predominantly at a frequency of 0.00021 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 1.87 fold of the estimated maximal expected allele frequency for a pathogenic variant in FBN1 causing Aortopathy phenotype (0.00011). c.4214T>G has been reported in the literature in a small family with Adoloscent idiopathic scoliosis in two siblings, but no significant features of Marfan syndrome, where it demonstrated incomplete segregation (unaffected mother with the variant) with disease (Buchan_2014, Haller_2015), a patient diagnosed with other connective tissue diseases with vascular involvement, but not Marfan syndrome (Rybczynski_2008), as a reportedly de-novo variant in a patient presenting with recurrent coronary dissections who did not fulfill the Ghent nosology for Marfan syndrome (von Hundelshausen_2015), in a family member of a kindred where the molecular basis of disease was attributed to a different cause, namely, a pathogenic variant in the COL5A1 gene (Richer_2020). These report(s) do not provide unequivocal conclusions about association of the variant with Marfan syndrome and/or an FBN1 associated Aortopathy. To our knowledge, no experimental evidence demonstrating an impact on protein function has been reported. The following publications have been ascertained in the context of this evaluation (PMID: 19012347, 26333736, 24833718, 25519456, 32938213). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 200041). Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as likely benign.

A literature search was performed for the gene, cDNA change, and amino acid change (where applicable). No publications were found based on this search. Allele frequency data from public databases did not allow this variant to be ruled in or out of causing disease. Therefore, this variant is classified as a variant of unknown significance.

Color Diagnostics, LLC DBA Color Health	RCV001116399	SCV001344541	uncertain significance	Familial thoracic aortic aneurysm and aortic dissection	2023-02-23	criteria provided, single submitter	clinical testing	This missense variant replaces leucine with arginine at codon 1405 of the FBN1 protein. Computational prediction is inconclusive regarding the impact of this variant on protein structure and function (internally defined REVEL score threshold 0.5 < inconclusive < 0.7, PMID: 27666373). To our knowledge, functional studies have not been reported for this variant. This variant has been reported in an individual affected with a connective tissue disease with vascular involvement (PMID: 19012347), recurrent spontaneous coronary dissections (PMID: 25519456), adolescent idiopathic scoliosis (PMID: 26333736), or arterial aneurysm and dissection (PMID: 32938213). This variant has been identified in 31/282836 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.

PreventionGenetics, part of Exact Sciences	RCV004537523	SCV004113234	uncertain significance	FBN1-related disorder	2023-09-23	criteria provided, single submitter	clinical testing	The FBN1 c.4214T>G variant is predicted to result in the amino acid substitution p.Leu1405Arg. This variant has been reported in a patient with connective tissue disease and vascular involvement (Rybczynski et al. 2008. PubMed ID: 19012347). It has also been reported as a variant of uncertain significance in a patient with idiopathic scoliosis who did not have a dilated aorta or a clinical diagnosis of Marfan syndrome (Haller et al. 2015. PubMed ID: 26333736) and as a presumed pathogenic, de novo variant in a patient with recurrent spontaneous coronary dissection without Marfan syndrome (von Hundelshausen et al. 2014. PubMed ID: 25519456). This variant has conflicting interpretations regarding it pathogenicity in ClinVar, ranging from likely benign to uncertain (https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/clinvar/variation/200041/). Although we suspect that this variant may be benign, at this time, the clinical significance of this variant is uncertain due to the absence of conclusive functional and genetic evidence.
