Genes affected

FOLR1 (HGNC:3791): (folate receptor alpha) The protein encoded by this gene is a member of the folate receptor family. Members of this gene family bind folic acid and its reduced derivatives, and transport 5-methyltetrahydrofolate into cells. This gene product is a secreted protein that either anchors to membranes via a glycosyl-phosphatidylinositol linkage or exists in a soluble form. Mutations in this gene have been associated with neurodegeneration due to cerebral folate transport deficiency. Due to the presence of two promoters, multiple transcription start sites, and alternative splicing, multiple transcript variants encoding the same protein have been found for this gene.

Uncertain:2

Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitter	clinical testing	Labcorp Genetics (formerly Invitae), Labcorp	Aug 16, 2022	This sequence change replaces arginine, which is basic and polar, with tryptophan, which is neutral and slightly polar, at codon 4 of the FOLR1 protein (p.Arg4Trp). This variant is present in population databases (rs112062510, gnomAD 0.007%). This variant has not been reported in the literature in individuals affected with FOLR1-related conditions. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 1448935). Algorithms developed to predict the effect of missense changes on protein structure and function (SIFT, PolyPhen-2, Align-GVGD) all suggest that this variant is likely to be tolerated. Algorithms developed to predict the effect of sequence changes on RNA splicing suggest that this variant may disrupt the consensus 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. -
Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitter	clinical testing	Victorian Clinical Genetics Services, Murdoch Childrens Research Institute	Aug 28, 2019	A heterozygous missense variant was identified, NM_016725.2(FOLR1):c.10C>T in exon 2 of 5 of the FOLR1 gene. This substitution is predicted to create a major amino acid change from arginine to tryptophan at position 4 of the protein, NP_057937.1(FOLR1):p.(Arg4Trp). The arginine at this position has low conservation (100 vertebrates, UCSC), and is not situated in a known functional domain. In silico software predictions of the pathogenicity of this variant are conflicting (Polyphen, SIFT, CADD, Mutation Taster). The variant is present in the gnomAD population database at a frequency of 0.0016% (4 heterozygotes, 0 homozygotes). The variant has not been previously reported in a clinical context. Based on information available at the time of curation, this variant has been classified as a VARIANT of UNCERTAIN SIGNIFICANCE (VUS). -
