Ambry Genetics RCV001186064 SCV000738911 uncertain significance Familial thoracic aortic aneurysm and aortic dissection 2017-07-11 criteria provided, single submitter clinical testing The p.N2178K variant (also known as c.6534T>A), located in coding exon 53 of the FBN1 gene, results from a T to A substitution at nucleotide position 6534. The asparagine at codon 2178 is replaced by lysine, an amino acid with similar properties. This alteration was reported in an individual with adolescent idiopathic scoliosis (Buchan JG et al. Hum. Mol. Genet., 2014 Oct;23:5271-82). This amino acid position is highly conserved in available vertebrate species. In addition, the in silico prediction for this alteration is inconclusive. Since supporting evidence is limited at this time, the clinical significance of this alteration remains unclear.

Labcorp Genetics (formerly Invitae), Labcorp RCV000797077 SCV000936617 uncertain significance Marfan syndrome; Familial thoracic aortic aneurysm and aortic dissection 2024-01-11 criteria provided, single submitter clinical testing This sequence change replaces asparagine, which is neutral and polar, with lysine, which is basic and polar, at codon 2178 of the FBN1 protein (p.Asn2178Lys). This variant is present in population databases (rs770257902, gnomAD 0.002%). This missense change has been observed in individual(s) with adolescent idiopathic scoliosis (PMID: 24833718). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 519782). Advanced modeling of protein sequence and biophysical properties (such as structural, functional, and spatial information, amino acid conservation, physicochemical variation, residue mobility, and thermodynamic stability) performed at Invitae indicates that this missense variant is expected to disrupt FBN1 protein function with a positive predictive value of 95%. In summary, the available evidence is currently insufficient to determine the role of this variant in disease. Therefore, it has been classified as a Variant of Uncertain Significance.
Color Diagnostics, LLC DBA Color Health RCV001186064 SCV001352402 uncertain significance Familial thoracic aortic aneurysm and aortic dissection 2023-08-23 criteria provided, single submitter clinical testing This missense variant replaces asparagine with lysine at codon 2178 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 one individual who was affected with adolescent idiopathic scoliosis but did not meet criteria for Marfan syndrome diagnosis (PMID: 24833718). This variant has been identified in 3/282550 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.
GeneDx RCV000788251 SCV001787424 uncertain significance not provided 2020-10-19 criteria provided, single submitter clinical testing Identified in an individual with adolescent idiopathic scoliosis in published literature who did not meet criteria for Marfan syndrome (Buchan et al., 2014); Not observed at a significant frequency in large population cohorts (Lek et al., 2016); In silico analysis, which includes protein predictors and evolutionary conservation, supports a deleterious effect; Although located in a calcium-binding EGF-like domain of the FBN1 gene, it does not affect a cysteine residue within this domain; cysteine substitutions in the calcium-binding EGF-like domains represent the majority of pathogenic missense changes associated with FBN1-related disorders (Collod-Beroud et al., 2003); Reported in ClinVar as a variant of uncertain significance (ClinVar Variant ID# 519782; Landrum et al., 2016); This variant is associated with the following publications: (PMID: 24833718)
