Description

The p.C1491S variant (also known as c.4471T>A), located in coding exon 36 of the FBN1 gene, results from a T to A substitution at nucleotide position 4471. The cysteine at codon 1491 is replaced by serine, an amino acid with dissimilar properties. This variant has been detected in an individual with features consistent with Marfan syndrome (MFS) or fibrillinopathy and has been determined to be the result of a de novo mutation or germline mosaicism in one individual (Ambry internal data). Based on internal structural assessment, this alteration eliminates a structurally critical disulfide bond in the structurally sensitive cbEGF domain #22. The majority of FBN1 mutations identified to date have involved the substitution or generation of cysteine residues within cbEGF domains (Vollbrandt T et al. J Biol Chem. 2004;279(31):32924-32931). This variant is considered to be rare based on population cohorts in the Genome Aggregation Database (gnomAD). This amino acid position is highly conserved in available vertebrate species. In addition, this alteration is predicted to be deleterious by in silico analysis. Based on the supporting evidence, this alteration is interpreted as a disease-causing mutation.
