Genes affected
MTR (HGNC:7468): (5-methyltetrahydrofolate-homocysteine methyltransferase) This gene encodes the 5-methyltetrahydrofolate-homocysteine methyltransferase. This enzyme, also known as cobalamin-dependent methionine synthase, catalyzes the final step in methionine biosynthesis. Mutations in MTR have been identified as the underlying cause of methylcobalamin deficiency complementation group G. Alternatively spliced transcript variants encoding distinct isoforms have been found for this gene. [provided by RefSeq, May 2014]

Ambry Genetics
Significance:Uncertain significance
Review Status:criteria provided, single submitter
Collection Method:clinical testing

The c.1575A>T (p.K525N) alteration is located in exon 16 (coding exon 16) of the MTR gene. This alteration results from a A to T substitution at nucleotide position 1575, causing the lysine (K) at amino acid position 525 to be replaced by an asparagine (N). Based on insufficient or conflicting evidence, the clinical significance of this alteration remains unclear. -

Methylcobalamin deficiency type cblG Uncertain:1
Jun 05, 2022
Labcorp Genetics (formerly Invitae), Labcorp
Significance:Uncertain significance
Review Status:criteria provided, single submitter
Collection Method:clinical testing

This sequence change replaces lysine, which is basic and polar, with asparagine, which is neutral and polar, at codon 525 of the MTR protein (p.Lys525Asn). This variant is present in population databases (rs199700767, gnomAD 0.04%). This variant has not been reported in the literature in individuals affected with MTR-related conditions. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 534570). Algorithms developed to predict the effect of missense changes on protein structure and function output the following: SIFT: "Tolerated"; PolyPhen-2: "Benign"; Align-GVGD: "Class C0". The asparagine amino acid residue is found in multiple mammalian species, which suggests that this missense change does not adversely affect protein function. In summary, the available evidence is currently insufficient to determine the role of this variant in disease. Therefore, it has been classified as a Variant of Uncertain Significance. -
