GeneDx RCV000297175 SCV000329833 pathogenic not provided 2021-01-05 criteria provided, single submitter clinical testing Published functional studies indicate that S249C results in stable dimerization of the mutant protein and constitutive phosphorylation of the receptor (Tomlinson et al., 2007). Furthermore, activation of FGFR3 was shown to be associated with an increase in FGFR3b isoform expression in S249C mutated tumors compared to normal tissue (Rosty et al., 2005).; In silico analysis, which includes protein predictors and evolutionary conservation, supports a deleterious effect; No data available from ethnically-matched control populations to assess the frequency of this variant; Reported in ClinVar as pathogenic but additional evidence is not available (ClinVar Variant ID# 16339; Landrum et al., 2016); This variant is associated with the following publications: (PMID: 22229528, 15772091, 19422094, 10471491, 22899908, 23175443, 11078763, 19381019, 25606676, 31754721, 25614871, 11038465, 8589699, 15869706, 17384684, 12461689, 11114733, 11904459, 21264819, 25928347, 27786351, 11879084, 28249712, 30692697, 19749790, 26619011, 25157968, 30952872, 8845844)

Labcorp Genetics (formerly Invitae), Labcorp RCV000297175 SCV000939858 pathogenic not provided 2024-11-05 criteria provided, single submitter clinical testing This sequence change replaces serine, which is neutral and polar, with cysteine, which is neutral and slightly polar, at codon 249 of the FGFR3 protein (p.Ser249Cys). This variant is not present in population databases (gnomAD no frequency). This missense change has been observed in individuals with thanatophoric dysplasia (PMID: 8589699, 11038465, 11879084). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 16339). Invitae Evidence Modeling incorporating data from in vitro experimental studies (internal data) indicates that this missense variant is expected to disrupt FGFR3 function with a positive predictive value of 95%. Experimental studies have shown that this missense change affects FGFR3 function (PMID: 17384684, 19749790, 25606676). For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic.
ARUP Laboratories, Molecular Genetics and Genomics, ARUP Laboratories RCV000297175 SCV001158049 pathogenic not provided 2020-04-13 criteria provided, single submitter clinical testing The FGFR3 c.746C>G; p.Ser249Cys variant (rs121913483) is one of the common FGFR3 missense variants that has been described in association with thanatophoric dysplasia type 1 (TD1; De Biasio 2000, Jung 2017, Rousseau 1996, Tavormina 1995). It is reported as pathogenic in ClinVar (Variation ID: 16339) and is absent from general population databases (1000 Genomes Project, Exome Variant Server, and Genome Aggregation Database), indicating it is not a common polymorphism. Functional studies of the variant protein demonstrate stable dimerization and constitutive activation in the absence of a ligand (Del Piccolo 2015, Tomlinson 2007). Based on available information, this variant is considered pathogenic. REFERENCES De Biasio P et al. Sonographic and molecular diagnosis of thanatophoric dysplasia type I at 18 weeks of gestation.

Missense changes are a common disease-causing mechanism. In silico tool predictions suggest damaging effect of the variant on gene or gene product (REVEL: 0.90; 3Cnet: 0.97). Same nucleotide change resulting in same amino acid change has been previously reported as pathogenic/likely pathogenic with strong evidence (ClinVar ID: VCV000016339). The variant has been observed in multiple (>3) similarly affected unrelated individuals (PMID: 25614871). Therefore, this variant is classified as Pathogenic according to the recommendation of ACMG/AMP guideline.
PreventionGenetics, part of Exact Sciences RCV004532377 SCV004114922 pathogenic FGFR3-related disorder 2022-11-28 criteria provided, single submitter clinical testing The FGFR3 c.746C>G variant is predicted to result in the amino acid substitution p.Ser249Cys. This variant has been reported to be causative for thanatophoric dysplasia in multiple patients (De Biasio et al. 2000. PubMedID: 11038465; Xue et al. 2014. PubMed ID: 25614871; Zhang et al. 2019. PubMed ID: 30692697). It has been reported as a de novo finding and functional studies support its pathogenicity (Peng et al. 2021. PubMed ID: 34567078; Del Piccolo et al. 2015. PubMed ID: 25606676). This variant has not been reported in a large population database (http://gnomad.broadinstitute.org), indicating this variant is rare. This variant is interpreted as pathogenic.

Neuberg Centre For Genomic Medicine, NCGM RCV000017742 SCV005438798 pathogenic Thanatophoric dysplasia type 1 2023-07-22 criteria provided, single submitter clinical testing The observed missense c.746C>G p.Ser249Cys variant in FGFR3 gene has been reported in multiple individuals affected with thanatophoric dysplasia Tavormina et al., 1995; De Biasio et al., 2000; Xue et al., 2014. Experimental studies have shown that this missense change affects FGFR3 function Tomlinson et al., 2007; di Martino et al., 2009; Del Piccolo et al., 2015. This variant is present with allele frequency of 0.00% in gnomAD Exomes. This variant has been submitted to the ClinVar database as Likely Pathogenic/ Pathogenic multiple submissions. Multiple lines of computational evidence Polyphen - Probably Damaging, SIFT - Damaging and MutationTaster - Disease causing predict a damaging effect on protein structure and function for this variant. The reference amino acid of p.Ser249Cys in FGFR3 is predicted as conserved by GERP++ and PhyloP across 100 vertebrates. The amino acid Ser at position 249 is changed to a Cys changing protein sequence and it might alter its composition and physico-chemical properties. For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic.
