RCV000519554 | SCV000617600 | likely pathogenic | not provided | 2022-08-18 | criteria provided, single submitter | clinical testing | Not observed at significant frequency in large population cohorts (gnomAD); In silico analysis supports that this missense variant has a deleterious effect on protein structure/function; Affects a cysteine residue within a calcium-binding EGF-like domain of the FBN1 gene, which may affect disulfide bonding and is predicted to alter the structure and function of the protein; 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); This variant is associated with the following publications: (PMID: 33174221, 12938084, 17627385) |

RCV001061535 | SCV001226280 | pathogenic | Marfan syndrome; Familial thoracic aortic aneurysm and aortic dissection | 2022-02-10 | criteria provided, single submitter | clinical testing | For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. This variant disrupts the p.Cys2455 amino acid residue in FBN1. Other variant(s) that disrupt this residue have been observed in individuals with FBN1-related conditions (PMID: 19159394, 31830381), which suggests that this may be a clinically significant amino acid residue. This variant affects a cysteine residue in the EGF-like, TGFBP or hybrid motif domains of FBN1. Cysteine residues are believed to be involved in intramolecular disulfide bridges and have been shown to be important for FBN1 protein structure (PMID: 16905551, 19349279). In addition, missense substitutions affecting cysteine residues within these domains are significantly overrepresented among patients with Marfan syndrome (PMID: 16571647, 17701892). 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. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 449435). This missense change has been observed in individual(s) with clinical features of Marfan syndrome (PMID: 17627385; Invitae). This variant is not present in population databases (gnomAD no frequency). This sequence change replaces cysteine, which is neutral and slightly polar, with tyrosine, which is neutral and polar, at codon 2455 of the FBN1 protein (p.Cys2455Tyr). |
