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

Our verdict: Pathogenic. The variant received 12 ACMG points.

• PM1: In a hotspot region, there are 11 aminoacids with missense pathogenic changes in the window of +-8 aminoacids around while only 1 benign, 11 uncertain in NM_000143.4
• PM2: Very rare variant in population databases, with high coverage
• PM5: Other missense variant is known to change same aminoacid residue: Variant chr1-241502562-T-C is described in ClinVar as Likely_pathogenic. ClinVar VariationId is 2734121.Status of the report is criteria_provided_single_submitter, 1 stars.
• PP2: Missense variant in the gene, where a lot of missense mutations are associated with disease in ClinVar. The gene has 132 curated pathogenic missense variants (we use a threshold of 10). The gene has 17 curated benign missense variants. Gene score misZ: 1.2708 (below the threshold of 3.09). Trascript score misZ: 2.0634 (below the threshold of 3.09). GenCC associations: The gene is linked to fumaric aciduria, hereditary leiomyomatosis and renal cell cancer, hereditary pheochromocytoma-paraganglioma, leiomyosarcoma, pheochromocytoma-paraganglioma.
• PP3: MetaRNN computational evidence supports a deleterious effect, 0.986
• PP5: Variant 1-241502561-T-C is Pathogenic according to our data. Variant chr1-241502561-T-C is described in ClinVar as Conflicting_classifications_of_pathogenicity. ClinVar VariationId is 393578.

The p.N373S pathogenic mutation (also known as c.1118A>G), located in coding exon 8 of the FH gene, results from an A to G substitution at nucleotide position 1118. The asparagine at codon 373 is replaced by serine, an amino acid with highly similar properties. This variant has been observed in multiple individuals with a personal and/or family history that is consistent with hereditary leiomyomatosis and renal cell cancer, including several probands whose associated tumors demonstrated FH-deficiency by immunohistochemistry (IHC) (Lehtonen HJ et al. Hum Pathol, 2007 May;38:793-6; Gardie B et al. J Med Genet, 2011 Apr;48:226-34; Muller M et al. Clin Genet, 2017 Dec;92:606-615; Sánchez-Heras AB et al. Cancers (Basel), 2020 Nov;12; Ouedraogo ZG et al. Genes (Basel), 2023 Oct;14; Ambry internal data). This variant has also been noted as a founder mutation in the Spanish population (Sánchez-Heras AB et al. Orphanet J Rare Dis, 2024 Jan;19:26). This variant is considered to be rare based on population cohorts in the Genome Aggregation Database (gnomAD). This amino acid position is highly conserved in available vertebrate species. In addition, this alteration is predicted to be deleterious by in silico analysis. Based on the supporting evidence, this variant is interpreted as a disease-causing mutation. -

This sequence change replaces asparagine, which is neutral and polar, with serine, which is neutral and polar, at codon 373 of the FH protein (p.Asn373Ser). This variant is not present in population databases (gnomAD no frequency). This missense change has been observed in individual(s) with hereditary leiomyomatosis and renal cell cancer (PMID: 17270241, 33442023). This variant is also known as N330S. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 393578). Advanced modeling of protein sequence and biophysical properties (such as structural, functional, and spatial information, amino acid conservation, physicochemical variation, residue mobility, and thermodynamic stability) performed at Invitae indicates that this missense variant is expected to disrupt FH protein function. Algorithms developed to predict the effect of sequence changes on RNA splicing suggest that this variant may create or strengthen a splice site. 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. -
