Description

Variant summary: FBN1 c.5788+5G>A alters a conserved nucleotide located close to a canonical splice site and therefore could affect mRNA splicing, leading to a significantly altered protein sequence. Several computational tools predict a significant impact on normal splicing: Four predict the variant abolishes the canonical 5' splicing donor site. One predicts the variant weakens the canonical 5' splicing donor site. Two publications report experimental evidence suggesting that this variant causes skipping of exon 46 (Liu_1996; Nijbroek_1995). The variant was absent in 251390 control chromosomes. c.5788+5G>A has been reported in the literature in multiple individuals affected with Marfan Syndrome (example, Baetens_2011, Liu_1996, Nijbroek_1995, Rand-Hendriksen_2007, Stheneur_2009). These data indicate that the variant is very likely to be associated with disease. Eleven clinical diagnostic laboratories have submitted clinical-significance assessments for this variant to ClinVar after 2014 and all classified the variant as pathogenic/likely pathogenic. Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as pathogenic.
