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. This sequence change replaces glutamic acid, which is acidic and polar, with lysine, which is basic and polar, at codon 313 of the FH protein (p.Glu313Lys). This variant is not present in population databases (gnomAD no frequency). This missense change has been observed in individual(s) with clinical features of hereditary leiomyomatosis and renal cell cancer (PMID: 31831373). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 214414). 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. -
TThe E313K variant in the FH gene has not been published as a pathogenic variant, nor has it been reported as a benign polymorphism to our knowledge. This variant is not observed in large population cohorts (Lek et al., 2016; 1000 Genomes Consortium et al., 2015; Exome Variant Server). The E313K variant is a non-conservative amino acid substitution, which is likely to impact secondary protein structure as these residues differ in polarity, charge, size and/or other properties. This substitution occurs at a position that is conserved across species, and in silico analysis predicts this variant is probably damaging to the protein structure/function. Missense variants in nearby residues (F312C, F312S, L315P, H318Y) have been reported in association with FH-related disorders, supporting the functional importance of this region of the protein (Coughlin et al., 1998; Toro et al., 2003; Gardie et al., 2011). Therefore, E313K is a strong candidate for a pathogenic variant. However the possibility that it is a rare benign variant cannot be excluded. -
Hereditary cancer-predisposing syndrome Pathogenic:1
The p.E313K variant (also known as c.937G>A), located in coding exon 7 of the FH gene, results from a G to A substitution at nucleotide position 937. The glutamic acid at codon 313 is replaced by lysine, an amino acid with similar properties. This variant has been detected in individuals with features consistent with hereditary leiomyomatosis and renal cell cancer, with at least one patient's affected tissue demonstrating FH deficiency (Forde C et al. Eur Urol Oncol, 2020 Dec;3:764-772; Ambry internal data). 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 majority of available evidence to date, this variant is likely to be pathogenic. -
