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.

Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingGeneDxJun 05, 2024Observed in individuals with renal cell carcinoma or head/neck paraganglioma (PMID: 30877234, 37095444); Not observed at significant frequency in large population cohorts (gnomAD); In silico analysis supports that this missense variant does not alter protein structure/function; This variant is associated with the following publications: (PMID: 29641532, 26927868, 30877234, 37095444) -
Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingQuest Diagnostics Nichols Institute San Juan CapistranoMar 08, 2023The frequency of this variant in the general population, 0.00012 (16/129174 chromosomes in European (Non-Finnish) subpopulation, http://gnomad.broadinstitute.org), is higher than would generally be expected for pathogenic variants in this gene. In the published literature, the variant has been reported in an individual with head and neck paraganglioma (PMID: 30877234 (2019)) as well as in an unaffected individual (PMID: 29641532 (2018)). Analysis of this variant using bioinformatics tools for the prediction of the effect of amino acid changes on protein structure and function yielded predictions that this variant is benign. Based on the available information, we are unable to determine the clinical significance of this variant. -
Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingLabcorp Genetics (formerly Invitae), LabcorpFeb 01, 2024This sequence change replaces valine, which is neutral and non-polar, with methionine, which is neutral and non-polar, at codon 73 of the FH protein (p.Val73Met). This variant is present in population databases (rs201878591, gnomAD 0.01%). This missense change has been observed in individual(s) with a benign paraganglioma (PMID: 30877234). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 184137). 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 not expected to disrupt FH protein function with a negative predictive value of 95%. 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. -

Hereditary leiomyomatosis and renal cell cancer Uncertain:1
Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingSt. Jude Molecular Pathology, St. Jude Children's Research HospitalNov 28, 2023The FH c.217G>A (p.Val73Met) missense change has a maximum subpopulation frequency of 0.012% in gnomAD v2.1.1 (https://gnomad.broadinstitute.org/). The in silico tool REVEL is inconclusive about a pathogenic or benign effect of this variant on protein function, and functional studies have not been performed. This variant has not been reported in individuals with hereditary leiomyomatosis and renal cell cancer (HLRCC). In summary, the evidence currently available is insufficient to determine the clinical significance of this variant. It has therefore been classified as of uncertain significance. -
FH-related disorder Uncertain:1
Uncertain significance, no assertion criteria providedclinical testingPreventionGenetics, part of Exact SciencesMar 14, 2024The FH c.217G>A variant is predicted to result in the amino acid substitution p.Val73Met. This variant was reported in an individual with phaeochromocytoma/paraganglioma (Table S3, Ben Aim et al 2019. PubMed ID: 30877234). This variant is reported in 0.012% of alleles in individuals of European (Non-Finnish) descent in gnomAD. It has conflicting interpretations of likely benign and uncertain significance in ClinVar (https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/clinvar/variation/184137/). At this time, the clinical significance of this variant is uncertain due to the absence of conclusive functional and genetic evidence. -
Hereditary cancer-predisposing syndrome Benign:1
Likely benign, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingAmbry GeneticsApr 21, 2021This alteration is classified as likely benign based on a combination of the following: seen in unaffected individuals, population frequency, intact protein function, lack of segregation with disease, co-occurrence, RNA analysis, in silico models, amino acid conservation, lack of disease association in case-control studies, and/or the mechanism of disease or impacted region is inconsistent with a known cause of pathogenicity. -
