Description

Variant summary: The FBN1 c.2237A>G (p.Tyr746Cys) variant involves the alteration of a conserved nucleotide and results in a replacement of a large size and aromatic Tyrosine (Y) with a medium size and polar Cysteine (C) located in a Ca-binding EGF-like domain (Giampietro_COP_2002). 4/4 in silico tools predict a damaging outcome for this variant (SNPs&GO not captured due to low reliability index). This variant is absent in the ExAC database (0/121350 control chromosomes), a large control database. A patient harboring the variant displayed a classic Marfan syndrome phenotype that involved "the ocular, skeletal, and cardiovascular systems" (Nijbroek_AJHG_1995). Family studies showed that the variant was a sporadic, de novo mutational event. Taken together and given that a cysteine is gained which is a frequent mechanism of disease, this variant is classified as likely pathogenic.
