Genes affected

HNMT (HGNC:5028): (histamine N-methyltransferase) In mammals, histamine is metabolized by two major pathways: N(tau)-methylation via histamine N-methyltransferase and oxidative deamination via diamine oxidase. This gene encodes the first enzyme which is found in the cytosol and uses S-adenosyl-L-methionine as the methyl donor. In the mammalian brain, the neurotransmitter activity of histamine is controlled by N(tau)-methylation as diamine oxidase is not found in the central nervous system. A common genetic polymorphism affects the activity levels of this gene product in red blood cells. Multiple alternatively spliced transcript variants that encode different proteins have been found for this gene. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]

The c.475del variant in HNMT has not previously been reported in the literature but it has been deposited in ClinVar [ClinVar ID: 445774] as Likely pathogenic. The c.475del variant is observed in 21 alleles (~0.00004% minor allele frequency with 0 homozygotes) in population databases (gnomAD v2.1.1 and v3.1.2, TOPMedFreeze 8. All of Us), suggesting it is not a common benign variant in the populations represented in those databases. The c.475del variant in HNMT is located in exon 5 of this 6-exon gene, and is predicted to incorporate a premature termination codon (p.(His159IlefsTer4), which might result in either loss-of-function via nonsense mediated decay or loss of the last 129 amino acids (>10% of the protein). Based on available evidence this inherited c.475del p.(His159IlefsTer4) variant identified in HNMT is classified as Likely Pathogenic. -

Variant summary: HNMT c.475delC (p.His159IlefsX4) results in a premature termination codon, predicted to cause a truncation of the encoded protein or absence of the protein due to nonsense mediated decay, however current evidence is not sufficient to establish loss-of-function variants in HNMT as causative of disease. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 6e-05 in 250516 control chromosomes (i.e., 15 heterozygotes; gnomAD v2 Exomes dataset). The available data on variant occurrences in the general population are insufficient to allow any conclusion about variant significance. To our knowledge, no occurrence of c.475delC in individuals affected with HNMT-Related Disorders and no experimental evidence demonstrating its impact on protein function have been reported. Two submitters have reported clinical-significance assessments for this variant to ClinVar after 2014, and both submitters classified the variant as likely pathogenic. Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as uncertain significance. -
