Mode of inheritance
X-LINKED: hemizygous mutation in males, monoallelic mutations in females may cause disease (may be less severe, later onset than males)
Phenotypes
Meester-Loeys syndrome, 300989; Spondyloepimetaphyseal dysplasia, X-linked, 300106
Publications
300989 Meester-Loeys syndrome; phenotype includes aortic aneurysm and dissection as well as rare pulmonory and cerebral artery aneurysm in addition to other syndromic connective tissue phenotypes; female carriers variable phenotype from unaffected to fatal aortic dissection (OMIM).Created: 25 Mar 2019, 4:30 p.m.
Meester et al 2017 Genet Med 19:386 PMID:27632686 report one nonsense, two missense and two large deletions affecting multiple exons of BGN but no additional genes. Nonsense variant c.5G>A, p.Trp2* with no gnomAD freq, seg in two affected family members and 2 ClinVar submissions as pathogenic. Missense variants c.908A>C, p.Gln303Pro and c.238G>A,p.Gly80Ser both with no gnomAD freq and 2 ClinVar submissions as pathogenic.Created: 25 Mar 2019, 4:27 p.m.
Mode of inheritance
X-LINKED: hemizygous mutation in males, biallelic mutations in females
This gene was part of an initial gene list collated by Matthew Edwards Royal Brompton Hospital sent 16th Jan 2019 on behalf of the London South GLH for review by the GMS Cardiology Specialist Group. Only gene symbol from the Royal Brompton gene panel was provided - suggested initial gene rating and evidence for inclusion not provided with the list.Created: 20 Feb 2019, 2:17 p.m.
Comment when marking as ready: Marked BGN as ready: July 4th 2017.Created: 4 Jul 2017, 3:11 p.m.
Comment on mode of inheritance: X-linked MOI supported by PMID:27632686 and curation notes in the ClinGen TAAD panel (https://search.clinicalgenome.org/kb/gene-validity/8260).Created: 4 Jul 2017, 3:11 p.m.
Comment on list classification: Updated rating from Red to Green: Green rating approved by Helen Brittain: >3 unrelated cases supporting causation for syndromic TAAD in PMID:27632686, plus mouse model in PMID:17502576. The only reason BGN is not given 'Strong' evidence on the ClinGen TAAD panel (see https://search.clinicalgenome.org/kb/gene-validity), is because the ClinGen panel focuses on isolated TAAD; notes on the ClinGen panel support involvement of BGN in syndromic TAAD.Created: 4 Jul 2017, 3:04 p.m.
Mouse model in PMID:17502576: the spontaneous death of biglycan-deficient male mice from aortic rupture implicates biglycan as essential for the structural and functional integrity of the aortic wall and suggests a potential role of biglycan gene defects in the pathogenesis of aortic dissection and rupture in humans.Created: 29 Jun 2017, 12:47 p.m.
Present on the ClinGen 'Familial thoracic aortic aneurysm and aortic dissection' gene panel with the summary: Strong [evidence] for syndromic , X-linked TAAD and “limited” [evidence] for isolated TAAD.There was 1 reported proband with isolated TAAD harboring variant in this gene.Created: 29 Jun 2017, 12:45 p.m.
PMID:27632686 (2017) show that LOF mutations in BGN cause a syndromic form of thoracic aortic aneurysms and dissection (TAAD). They sequenced 368 candidate genes in 11 Marfan probands without a genetic diagnosis, and found 2 unrelated individuals with BGN mutations (p.Trp2* and p.Gln303Pro). Subsequent sequencing of BGN in 360 male and 155 females unexplained TAAD probands identified further cases (5 individuals in total).Created: 29 Jun 2017, 12:43 p.m.
