This sequence change affects the initiator methionine of the FAH mRNA. The next in-frame methionine is located at codon 71. This variant is present in population databases (rs766882348, gnomAD 0.003%). Disruption of the initiator codon has been observed in individual(s) with tyrosinemia type I (PMID: 21764616, 22802474, 24016420). It has also been observed to segregate with disease in related individuals. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 950962). For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. -

Significance: Pathogenic
Review Status: criteria provided, single submitter
Collection Method: clinical testing

Variant summary: FAH c.3G>A (p.Met1Ile) alters the initiation codon and is predicted to result either in absence of the protein or truncation of the encoded protein due to translation initiation at a downstream codon. Other variants that disrupt the initiator codon have been reported in association with Tyrosinaemia 1 in HGMD. Three of three in-silico tools predict a benign effect of the variant on protein function. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 8e-06 in 250716 control chromosomes. The next downstream in-frame initiation codon is at codon 71 and other pathogenic variants have been reported upstream of this potential in-frame start codon. c.3G>A has been reported in the literature as a homozygous genotype in individuals affected with Tyrosinemia Type 1 (Ibarra-Gonzalez_2019). These data indicate that the variant is likely to be associated with disease. To our knowledge, no experimental evidence demonstrating an impact on protein function has been reported. Two clinical diagnostic laboratories have submitted clinical-significance assessments for this variant to ClinVar after 2014 without evidence for independent evaluation. All laboratories classified the variant as pathogenic. Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as pathogenic. -
