Description
Variant summary: FGFR2 c.755C>T (p.Ser252Leu) results in a non-conservative amino acid change in the encoded protein sequence. Three of five in-silico tools predict a benign effect of the variant on protein function. c.755C>T has been reported in the literature in two independent families affected with Crouzon syndrome and the variant was present in both affected individuals as well as clinically normal family members (examples: Oldridge_1997, Oshini_2017). Additionally, this variant was seen in cis with a second pathogenic variant in a mother and her daughter affected with syndactyly (Wilkie_2002). At least one publication reports experimental evidence that FGFR2 mutant Ser252Leu exhibited kinetic behavior identical to wild-type (Anderson_1998). These data suggest a benign role for this variant however, other variants affecting this residue have been classified pathogenic/likely pathogenic in ClinVar (CV IDs: 13272, 13279). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 549484). The following publications have been ascertained in the context of this evaluation (PMID: 9002682, 9700203, 15282208, 11711827, 27683237, 12357470). Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as uncertain significance.
