Variant summary
Our verdict is Pathogenic. Variant got 13 ACMG points: 13P and 0B. PM2PVS1PP4_ModeratePM3_Supporting
This summary comes from the ClinGen Evidence Repository: The c.505+1G>A variant (NM_014297.5) in ETHE1 occurs within the canonical splice donor/acceptor site (+1) of exon/intron 4 boundary (exon 4/7). It is predicted to cause aberrant splicing, resulting in a frameshift leading to nonsense mediated decay in a gene in which loss-of-function is an established disease mechanism (PVS1; PMID:14732903). There is another pathogenic variant at this position (c.505+1G>T) for which Western blot analyses provided supportive evidence for nonsense mediated decay (PMID:14732903). The highest population minor allele frequency in gnomAD v2.1.1 is 0.000008 (2/251,460 alleles) in the general population, which is lower than the ClinGen ETHE1 threshold < 0.00002 for PM2, meeting this criterion (PM2). This variant was originally reported in a homozygote with developmental delay, petechiae, orthostatic acrocyanosis, chronic diarrhea, and ethylmalonic aciduria which is a phenotype highly specific to ethylmalonic encephalopathy (PP4_moderate; PMID:14732903 patient O). While there are at least 2 homozygotes of this variant with ethylmalonic encephalopathy reported to date, parental analyses have only been performed in one of these patients to confirm the variants were in trans (PM3_supporting; PMID:29526615). In summary, this variant meets the criteria to be classified as pathogenic for Autosomal Recessive Ethylmalonic Encephalopathy. ACMG/AMP criteria applied, as specified by the ClinGen ETHE1 VCEP (version 1.0): PVS1, PM2, PM3_supporting, PP4_Moderate. Approved 7/6/2021.

Pathogenic, reviewed by expert panel | curation | ClinGen Mitochondrial Disease Nuclear and Mitochondrial Variant Curation Expert Panel, ClinGen | Jul 27, 2021 | The c.505+1G>A variant (NM_014297.5) in ETHE1 occurs within the canonical splice donor/acceptor site (+1) of exon/intron 4 boundary (exon 4/7). It is predicted to cause aberrant splicing, resulting in a frameshift leading to nonsense mediated decay in a gene in which loss-of-function is an established disease mechanism (PVS1; PMID: 14732903). There is another pathogenic variant at this position (c.505+1G>T) for which Western blot analyses provided supportive evidence for nonsense mediated decay (PMID: 14732903).

Likely pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitter | clinical testing | Women's Health and Genetics/Laboratory Corporation of America, LabCorp | Aug 21, 2017 | Variant summary: The ETHE1 c.505+1G>A variant involves the alteration of a conserved intronic nucleotide. One in silico tool predicts a damaging outcome for this variant. 5/5 splice prediction tools predict the complete loss of a canonical 5' splice donor site. However, these predictions have yet to be confirmed by functional studies. The variant has been reported in one affected individual in the literature in the homozygous state. This variant is absent in 121342 control chromosomes. Taken together, this variant is classified as likely pathogenic. - |
Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitter | clinical testing | Labcorp Genetics (formerly Invitae), Labcorp | Dec 04, 2023 | This sequence change affects a donor splice site in intron 4 of the ETHE1 gene. It is expected to disrupt RNA splicing. Variants that disrupt the donor or acceptor splice site typically lead to a loss of protein function (PMID: 16199547), and loss-of-function variants in ETHE1 are known to be pathogenic (PMID: 14732903, 19136963). This variant is present in population databases (no rsID available, gnomAD 0.006%). Disruption of this splice site has been observed in individuals with ETHE1-related conditions (PMID: 14732903). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 496427). Algorithms developed to predict the effect of sequence changes on RNA splicing suggest that this variant may disrupt the consensus splice site. For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. - |
