Standard

Familial thoracic aortic aneurysm and aortic dissection

FBN1 · rs2141240523

Strength of the evidence

2 / 4

ClinVar classifies it as disease-causing (or likely), reviewed at 1 of 4 stars.

How this is scored

4: ClinVar disease-causing, reviewed by an expert panel or a guideline (3–4 stars). 3: ClinVar, several labs agreeing (2 stars), or a genetic study at p ≤ 10−50. 2: ClinVar from one lab (1 star), or p ≤ 10−20. 1: ClinVar submitted without criteria (0 stars), or genome-wide significance (p ≤ 5×10−8). The higher of the two counts. It says how solid the evidence is, not whether it matters for a particular person.

What ClinVar records

Classification Likely pathogenic for Marfan syndrome; criteria provided, single submitter (1 of 4 stars, 1 submitter), last evaluated 2021-10-01. ClinVar record 1299642 NM_000138.5(FBN1):c.6380A>G (p.Asp2127Gly)

Classification Conflicting classifications of pathogenicity for Familial thoracic aortic aneurysm and aortic dissection, Marfan syndrome; criteria provided, conflicting classifications (1 of 4 stars, 3 submitters), last evaluated 2021-03-01. ClinVar record 1325439 NM_000138.5(FBN1):c.6380A>T (p.Asp2127Val)

Classification Uncertain significance for Marfan syndrome, Familial thoracic aortic aneurysm and aortic dissection; criteria provided, single submitter (1 of 4 stars, 1 submitter), last evaluated 2020-12-03. ClinVar record 1427197 NM_000138.5(FBN1):c.6380A>C (p.Asp2127Ala)

Change history MyGeneLog™ keeps a copy of every weekly release from 2026-10-19 and compares them. This position's classification has not changed since.

What this is ClinVar's aggregate record for this position (as of its 2026-10-19 release), not a result about you. A classification describes the variant against the condition named, as laboratories submitted it. Whether a person carries this variant, and what that would mean for them, is a question for a clinical test and a genetic counsellor.

What each result means

A/A Two copies of the version labs disagree about for Familial thoracic aortic aneurysm and aortic dissection: in ClinVar, some labs call it disease-causing and others do not. A result like this should be confirmed by a medical genetic test and talked through with a doctor; consumer DNA files can misread rare variants. (ClinVar VCV001325439, criteria provided, conflicting classifications)
A/T One copy of the version labs disagree about for Familial thoracic aortic aneurysm and aortic dissection: in ClinVar, some labs call it disease-causing and others do not, so what one copy means is not settled. A genetic counsellor can look at the separate records. (ClinVar VCV001325439, criteria provided, conflicting classifications)
T/T No copy of the version labs disagree about for Familial thoracic aortic aneurysm and aortic dissection: in ClinVar, some labs call it disease-causing and others do not. This is the usual result. (ClinVar VCV001325439, criteria provided, conflicting classifications)
