Genes affected
MMACHC (HGNC:24525): (metabolism of cobalamin associated C) The exact function of the protein encoded by this gene is not known, however, its C-terminal region shows similarity to TonB, a bacterial protein involved in energy transduction for cobalamin (vitamin B12) uptake. Hence, it is postulated that this protein may have a role in the binding and intracellular trafficking of cobalamin. Mutations in this gene are associated with methylmalonic aciduria and homocystinuria type cblC. [provided by RefSeq, Oct 2009]

Cobalamin C disease Uncertain:5

Labcorp Genetics (formerly Invitae), Labcorp
Significance:Uncertain significance
Review Status:criteria provided, single submitter
Collection Method:clinical testing

This sequence change disrupts the translational stop signal of the MMACHC mRNA. It is expected to extend the length of the MMACHC protein by 14 additional amino acid residues. This variant is present in population databases (rs201025783, gnomAD 0.05%), including at least one homozygous and/or hemizygous individual. This protein extension has been observed in individual(s) with clinical features of cobalamin C deficiency (PMID: 31130284). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 554073). Experimental studies and prediction algorithms are not available or were not evaluated, and the functional significance of this variant is currently unknown. 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. -

Variant summary: MMACHC c.848G>C (p.X283SerextX14) changes the termination codon and is predicted to lead to an extended protein with additional amino acids added to the normal C-terminus. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 0.00026 in 276092 control chromosomes in the gnomAD database, including 1 homozygote. This frequency is not higher than expected for a pathogenic variant in MMACHC causing Cobalamin C Disease (Methylmalonic Aciduria with Homocystinuria) (0.00026 vs 0.0031), allowing no conclusion about variant significance. Another variant affecting the same nucleotide and leading to a different, though functionally similar protein level change, MMACHC c.848G>T (p.Ter283LeuextTer14) is reported in 275/276092 gnomAD alleles, almost exclusively observed within the Latino subpopulation with 274/34392 alleles (frequency: 0.008), including 4 homozygotes. This frequency is higher than the MPAF (0.0031), suggesting that the loss of STOP codon leading to a 14 amino acid extension of the protein might not be detrimental for protein function. c.848G>C has been reported in the literature (Abuli 2016). This report however does not provide unequivocal conclusions about association of the variant with Cobalamin C Disease (Methylmalonic Aciduria with Homocystinuria). To our knowledge, no experimental evidence demonstrating an impact on protein function has been reported. One clinical diagnostic laboratory has submitted clinical-significance assessments for this variant to ClinVar after 2014 without evidence for independent evaluation, and classified the variant as uncertain significance. Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as VUS-possibly benign. -

Disorders of Intracellular Cobalamin Metabolism Benign:1
Apr 28, 2017
Illumina Laboratory Services, Illumina
Significance:Likely benign
Review Status:criteria provided, single submitter
Collection Method:clinical testing

This variant was observed in the ICSL laboratory as part of a predisposition screen in an ostensibly healthy population. It had not been previously curated by ICSL or reported in the Human Gene Mutation Database (HGMD: prior to June 1st, 2018), and was therefore a candidate for classification through an automated scoring system. Utilizing variant allele frequency, disease prevalence and penetrance estimates, and inheritance mode, an automated score was calculated to assess if this variant is too frequent to cause the disease. Based on the score and internal cut-off values, a variant classified as likely benign is not then subjected to further curation. The score for this variant resulted in a classification of likely benign for this disease. -
