ClinGen FBN1 Variant Curation Expert Panel, ClinGen RCV003330093 SCV004037329 likely pathogenic Marfan syndrome 2023-09-26 reviewed by expert panel curation NM_000138.5 c.7330+3_7330+6del is an intronic variant that removes 4 nucleotides in a splice region. Computational prediction tools strongly suggest that this variant weakens or eliminates use of the canonical donor splice site in intron 58 (PP3). This variant was identified in an internal proband who met the revised Ghent criteria for Marfan syndrome with TAAD and a systemic score of 11 (PP4; University of Tokyo). This variant has been reported in the literature and in ClinVar (Variation ID: 636961) in at least 4 unrelated individuals with clinical suspicion of Marfan syndrome (PS4_moderate; PMID: 19839986, GeneDx, Blueprint Genetics). In one of these cases, the variant was found to be de novo with confirmed parentage in an individual with skeletal features and striae, a non-specific phenotype with high genetic heterogeneity (PS2_supporting; GeneDx). In another family, this variant was found to segregate with features or a diagnosis of Marfan syndrome in 3 affected family members (PP1; GeneDx). This variant is not present in gnomAD (PM2_supporting; https://gnomad.broadinstitute.org/). In summary, this variant meets criteria to be classified as likely pathogenic for Marfan syndrome based on the ACMG/AMP criteria applied, as specified by the ClinGen FBN1 VCEP: PS4_moderate, PS2_supporting, PM2_supporting, PP1, PP3, PP4).

Ambry Genetics RCV002386368 SCV002668844 uncertain significance Familial thoracic aortic aneurysm and aortic dissection 2021-11-09 criteria provided, single submitter clinical testing The c.7330+3_7330+6delAAGT intronic variant, located in intron 58 of the FBN1 gene, results from a deletion of 4 nucleotides within intron 58 of the FBN1 gene. This variant has been reported in an individual from a Marfan syndrome cohort; however, clinical details were limited (Hung CC et al. Ann Hum Genet, 2009 Nov;73:559-67). This nucleotide region is not well conserved in available vertebrate species. In silico splice site analysis predicts that this alteration will weaken the native splice donor site and will result in the creation or strengthening of a novel splice donor site. Since supporting evidence is limited at this time, the clinical significance of this alteration remains unclear.
