GeneDx	RCV000297175	SCV000329833	pathogenic	not provided	2017-11-24	criteria provided, single submitter	clinical testing	The S249C missense variant in the FGFR3 gene has been reported in association with thanatophoric dysplasia I (TDI) and is one of five common, recurrent pathogenic variants responsible for this severe skeletal dysplasia (Rousseau et al., 1996; Tavormina et al., 1995; Del Piccolo et al. 2015). Functional studies indicate that S249C results in stable dimerization of the mutant protein and constitutive phosphorylation of the receptor (Tomlinson et al., 2007; Del Piccolo et al. 2015). It is a non-conservative amino acid substitution which is likely to impact secondary protein structure as these residues differ in polarity, charge, size and/or other properties. This substitution occurs at a conserved position within the linker region between Ig-like II and III where multiple disease-associated variants occur in the FGFR family of genes. In-silico analyses, including protein predictors and evolutionary conservation, support a deleterious effect. Another missense substitution to a cysteine at a nearby residue (R248C) also has been reported in association with TDI according to the Human Gene Mutation Database (Stenson et al., 2014). Finally, the S249C missense variant is not observed in large population cohorts (Lek et al., 2016). In summary, S249C is a common pathogenic variant and its presence is consistent with a diagnosis of thanatophoric dysplasia.

Invitae	RCV000800158	SCV000939858	pathogenic	Craniosynostosis syndrome	2018-10-15	criteria provided, single submitter	clinical testing	This sequence change replaces serine with cysteine at codon 249 of the FGFR3 protein (p.Ser249Cys). The serine residue is highly conserved and there is a moderate physicochemical difference between serine and cysteine. This variant is present in population databases (rs121913483, ExAC 0.002%). This variant has been observed in several individuals affected with thanatophoric dysplasia (PMID: 8589699, 11038465, 11879084). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 16339). Experimental studies have shown that this missense change results in stable FGFR3 dimerization and constitutive phosphorylation of the receptor at higher levels than wild type protein (PMID: 17384684, 19749790, 25606676). For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic.
ARUP Laboratories, Molecular Genetics and Genomics,ARUP Laboratories	RCV001000950	SCV001158049	pathogenic	none 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.
