RCV000181676 | SCV000233979 | pathogenic | not provided | 2014-08-18 | criteria provided, single submitter | clinical testing | Although the c.7599delT mutation in the FBN1 gene has not been reported to our knowledge, this mutation causes a shift in reading frame starting at codon Leucine 2534, changing it to a Cysteine, and creating a premature stop codon at position 148 of the new reading frame, denoted p.Leu2534CysfsX148. This mutation is expected to result in either an abnormal, truncated protein product or loss of protein from this allele through nonsense-mediated mRNA decay. Other frameshift mutations in the FBN1 gene have been reported in association with Marfan syndrome. In summary, c.7599delT in the FBN1 gene is interpreted as a disease-causing mutation. |
