RCV000600509 | SCV000711752 | pathogenic | Congenital afibrinogenemia | 2016-04-27 | criteria provided, single submitter | clinical testing | The p.Trp341X variant in FGG has not been previously reported in individuals wit h afibrinogenemia/hypofibrinogenemia and is absent from large population studies . This nonsense variant leads to a premature termination codon at position 341 w hich is predicted to lead to a truncated or absent protein. Loss of function var iants in FGG have been shown to cause afibrinogenemia in the homozygous state an d hypofibrinogenemia (though not always symptomatic) in the heterozygous state. In summary, this variant meets our criteria to be classified as pathogenic for a fibrinogenemia in an autosomal recessive manner. |
