Abstract excerpt
Background: Marfan syndrome (MFS) is caused by fibrillin-1 gene (FBN1) variants. Mutational hotspots and/or well-established critical functional domains of FBN1 include cysteine residues, calcium-binding consensus sequences, and amino acids related to interdomain packaging. Previous guidelines for variant interpretation do not reflect the features of genes or related diseases. Using the Clinical Genome Resource...
