Description

This missense variant replaces arginine with histidine at codon 976 of the FBN1 protein. Computational prediction suggests that this variant may have a deleterious impact on protein structure and function (internally defined REVEL score threshold >= 0.7, PMID: 27666373). To our knowledge, functional studies have not been reported for this variant. This variant has been reported in individuals affected with Marfan syndrome (PMID: 17657824, 21895641, 25944730, 28941062). It has also been reported in an individual affected with clinical features of Marfan syndrome who also carried a different pathogenic missense variant in the same gene (PMID: 24793577). This variant has been identified in 29/282840 chromosomes in the general population by the Genome Aggregation Database (gnomAD). The available evidence is insufficient to determine the role of this variant in disease conclusively. Therefore, this variant is classified as a Variant of Uncertain Significance.

Description

The p.R976H variant (also known as c.2927G>A), located in coding exon 24 of the FBN1 gene, results from a G to A substitution at nucleotide position 2927. The arginine at codon 976 is replaced by histidine, an amino acid with highly similar properties, and is located in the TGFBP#03 domain. This variant was reported in a patient described to have classic Marfan syndrome (MS) (Comeglio P et al. Hum Mutat. 2007;28(9):928) and in cohorts of individuals with symptoms of Marfan syndrome (Robinson DO et al. Clin Genet. 2012;82(3):223-31; Wooderchak-Donahue W et al. Am. J. Med. Genet. A. 2015;167A:1747-57; Vatti L et al. Am. J. Med. Genet. A. 2017:epub ahead of print); however, clinical details were limited in all studies. This variant has also been seen in exome cohorts not selected for presence of MFS or cardiovascular findings; however, clinical history was limited or not provided (Yang RQ et al. BMC Genet. 2014;15:74; Amendola LM et al. Genome Res. 2015;25(3):305-15; Retterer K et al. Genet Med. 2016 07;18(7):696-704; Damrauer SM et al. Circ Genom Precis Med. 2019 06;12(6):e002454). Based on data from gnomAD, the frequency for this variant is above the maximum credible frequency for a disease-causing variant in this gene based on internally established thresholds (Karczewski et al. Nature. 2020 May;581(7809):434-443; Whiffin et al. Genet Med. 2017 10;19:1151-1158). This amino acid position is highly conserved in available vertebrate species. In addition, this alteration is predicted to be deleterious by in silico analysis. Since supporting evidence is conflicting at this time, the clinical significance of this alteration remains unclear.
