Variant summary

Our verdict is Benign. The variant received -9 ACMG points: 0P and 9B. BP6BS1BS2

The NM_000143.4(FH):​c.1237-24_1237-13dupTCTCTCTCTCTC variant causes a intron change involving the alteration of a non-conserved nucleotide. It is difficult to determine the true allele frequency of this variant because it is of type INS_BIG, and the frequency of such variant types in population databases may be underestimated and unreliable. Variant has been reported in ClinVar as Conflicting classifications of pathogenicity (no stars).

Genes affected
FH (HGNC:3700): (fumarate hydratase) The protein encoded by this gene is an enzymatic component of the tricarboxylic acid (TCA) cycle, or Krebs cycle, and catalyzes the formation of L-malate from fumarate. It exists in both a cytosolic form and an N-terminal extended form, differing only in the translation start site used. The N-terminal extended form is targeted to the mitochondrion, where the removal of the extension generates the same form as in the cytoplasm. It is similar to some thermostable class II fumarases and functions as a homotetramer. Mutations in this gene can cause fumarase deficiency and lead to progressive encephalopathy.

ACMG classification

Classification was made for transcript

Our verdict: Benign. The variant received -9 ACMG points.

BP6
Variant 1-241500602-T-TGAGAGAGAGAGA is Benign according to our data. Variant chr1-241500602-T-TGAGAGAGAGAGA is described in ClinVar as Conflicting_classifications_of_pathogenicity. ClinVar VariationId is 296870.
BS1
Variant frequency is greater than expected in population eas. GnomAd4 allele frequency = 0.0201 (2695/133752) while in subpopulation EAS AF = 0.0309 (142/4596). AF 95% confidence interval is 0.0268. There are 36 homozygotes in GnomAd4. There are 1234 alleles in the male GnomAd4 subpopulation. Median coverage is 0. This position passed quality control check.
BS2
High Homozygotes in GnomAd4 at 36 AR,AD gene
