This sequence change creates a premature translational stop signal (p.Val206Cysfs*18) in the FAH gene. It is expected to result in an absent or disrupted protein product. Loss-of-function variants in FAH are known to be pathogenic (PMID: 9101289, 9633815). This variant is not present in population databases (gnomAD no frequency). This variant has not been reported in the literature in individuals affected with FAH-related conditions. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 937956). For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. -
