Genes affected
ETHE1 (HGNC:23287): (ETHE1 persulfide dioxygenase) This gene encodes a member of the metallo beta-lactamase family of iron-containing proteins involved in the mitochondrial sulfide oxidation pathway. The encoded protein catalyzes the oxidation of a persulfide substrate to sulfite. Certain mutations in this gene cause ethylmalonic encephalopathy, an infantile metabolic disorder affecting the brain, gastrointestinal tract and peripheral vessels. Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants encoding different isoforms. [provided by RefSeq, Mar 2016]
ZNF575 (HGNC:27606): (zinc finger protein 575) Predicted to enable DNA-binding transcription factor activity, RNA polymerase II-specific and RNA polymerase II cis-regulatory region sequence-specific DNA binding activity. Predicted to be involved in regulation of transcription by RNA polymerase II. Predicted to be located in nucleus. [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Apr 2022]

Variant summary: ETHE1 c.375+5G>A alters a nucleotide located close to a canonical splice site and therefore could affect mRNA splicing, leading to a significantly altered protein sequence. Several computational tools predict a significant impact on normal splicing: Two predict the variant abolishes a 5' splicing donor site. However, these predictions have yet to be confirmed by functional studies. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 1.2e-05 in 251394 control chromosomes (gnomAD). c.375+5G>A has been reported in the literature in individuals affected with Ethylmalonic Encephalopathy (Tiranti_2004, Tiranti__2005). 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. The following publications have been ascertained in the context of this evaluation (PMID: 14732903, 16183799, 21472225). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 488509). Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as likely pathogenic.
