Variant summary
Our verdict is Benign. Variant got -9 ACMG points: 3P and 12B. PM1PP3BP4_StrongBA1
The NM_005957.5(MTHFR):c.665C>T(p.Ala222Val) variant causes a missense change involving the alteration of a conserved nucleotide. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 0.318 in 1,613,846 control chromosomes in the GnomAD database, including 87,723 homozygotes. In-silico tool predicts a benign outcome for this variant. Variant has been reported in ClinVar as drug response (★★★). Another nucleotide change resulting in same amino acid change has been previously reported as Likely benignin ClinVar. Synonymous variant affecting the same amino acid position (i.e. A222A) has been classified as Likely benign.

Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitter | clinical testing | Myriad Genetics, Inc. | Dec 16, 2019 | NM_005957.4(MTHFR):c.665C>T(A222V) is a common variant present in approximately 30% of the general population. While many individuals who are homozygous for this variant are asymptomatic, some may have mild MTHFR deficiency associated with increased plasma homocysteine. Sources cited for classification include the following: PMID 7647779, 8837319, 9545406, 11781870, 12560871, 8903338, 9789068, 11929966, 15565101, 17436239, 12356947, 9133512, 12196644 and 9798595. Classification of NM_005957.4(MTHFR):c.665C>T(A222V) is based on the following criteria: This is a well-established variant in the literature that has been observed more frequently in patients with mild MTHFR deficiency than in healthy populations and there is functional data showing deficient protein function. Please note: this variant was assessed in the context of healthy population screening. - |

Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitter | clinical testing | ARUP Laboratories, Molecular Genetics and Genomics, ARUP Laboratories | Nov 29, 2023 | The MTHFR c.665C>T; p.Ala222Val variant (rs1801133), also known as C677T or the thermolabile variant, is listed in the ClinVar database (Variation ID: 3520) and is observed in the general population with an overall allele frequency of 30.8% (87,234/282,784 alleles including 15,819 homozygotes) in the Genome Aggregation Database. The thermolabile c.665C>T variant in the homozygous state has been correlated with reduced enzyme activity and increased homocysteine (Frosst 1995). The practice guidelines from The American College of Medical Genetics state that this variant in the heterozygous state is unlikely to be of clinical significance (Hickey 2013); however, a possible effect of this variant when paired with a pathogenic MTHFR variant on the opposite chromosome cannot be excluded. Additionally, the practice guidelines state that an individual who is homozygous for the c.665C>T; p.Ala222Val variant and has elevated homocysteine may be at mildly increased risk for venous thromboembolism and recurrent pregnancy loss (Hickey 2013). The variant is considered a ''susceptibility'' or an ''association'' variant. REFERENCES Frosst P et al.

drug response, reviewed by expert panel | curation | PharmGKB | Mar 24, 2021 | PharmGKB Level of Evidence 2A: Variants in Level 2A clinical annotations are found in PharmGKB’s Tier 1 Very Important Pharmacogenes (VIPs). These variants are in known pharmacogenes, implying causation of drug phenotype is more likely. These clinical annotations describe variant-drug combinations with a moderate level of evidence supporting the association. For example, the association may be found in multiple cohorts, but there may be a minority of studies that do not support the majority assertion. Level 2A clinical annotations must be supported by at least two independent publications. Drug-variant association: Toxicity |
