Genes affected

MVK (HGNC:7530): (mevalonate kinase) This gene encodes the peroxisomal enzyme mevalonate kinase. Mevalonate is a key intermediate, and mevalonate kinase a key early enzyme, in isoprenoid and sterol synthesis. Mevalonate kinase deficiency caused by mutation of this gene results in mevalonic aciduria, a disease characterized psychomotor retardation, failure to thrive, hepatosplenomegaly, anemia and recurrent febrile crises. Defects in this gene also cause hyperimmunoglobulinaemia D and periodic fever syndrome, a disorder characterized by recurrent episodes of fever associated with lymphadenopathy, arthralgia, gastrointestinal dismay and skin rash. Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2014]

Significance:Pathogenic

Review Status:criteria provided, single submitter

Collection Method:curation

The NM_000431.4:c.928G>A variant in the MVK gene results in a missense mutation (p.Val310Met), substituting valine with methionine at a conserved position within the mevalonate kinase enzyme. MVK is essential for cholesterol and isoprenoid biosynthesis, and its deficiency disrupts protein prenylation, triggering systemic inflammation. This variant has been shown to significantly reduce MK enzymatic activity, leading to mevalonate kinase deficiency (MKD), which includes Hyper-IgD Syndrome (HIDS) and mevalonic aciduria. The homozygous autosomal recessive inheritance and deleterious functional impact support its classification as pathogenic. Clinically, affected individuals may present with recurrent fever, abdominal pain, lymphadenopathy, and elevated inflammatory markers. -

Significance:Pathogenic

Review Status:criteria provided, single submitter

Collection Method:clinical testing

This sequence change replaces valine, which is neutral and non-polar, with methionine, which is neutral and non-polar, at codon 310 of the MVK protein (p.Val310Met). This variant is present in population databases (rs104895319, gnomAD 0.01%). This missense change has been observed in individuals with symptoms consistent with melavonic aciduria (PMID: 10401001, 15536479, 16835861, 20194276, 27213830, 28638818). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 11934). 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) has been performed at Invitae for this missense variant, however the output from this modeling did not meet the statistical confidence thresholds required to predict the impact of this variant on MVK protein function. Experimental studies have shown that this missense change affects MVK function (PMID: 10401001, 12444096, 16835861). For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. -
