Genes affected
NFU1 (HGNC:16287): (NFU1 iron-sulfur cluster scaffold) This gene encodes a protein that is localized to mitochondria and plays a critical role in iron-sulfur cluster biogenesis. The encoded protein assembles and transfers 4Fe-4S clusters to target apoproteins including succinate dehydrogenase and lipoic acid synthase. Mutations in this gene are a cause of multiple mitochondrial dysfunctions syndrome-1, and pseudogenes of this gene are located on the short arms of chromosomes 1 and 3. Alternatively spliced transcript variants encoding multiple isoforms have been observed for this gene. [provided by RefSeq, Dec 2011]

Submissions by phenotype

not provided Pathogenic:1
Likely pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingGeneDxOct 16, 2013A N22D missense change that is likely pathogenic was identified in the NFU1 gene. It has not been published as a pathogenic variant nor has it been reported as a benign polymorphism to our knowledge. The amino acid change is non-conservative as an uncharged Asparagine residue is replaced by a negatively charged Aspartic Acid residue. This change occurs at a highly conserved position in the NFU1 protein, and multiple in-silico analysis programs predict that N22D is damaging to the NFU1 protein. Therefore, N22D is a strong candidate for a pathogenic variant, however the possibility that it is a benign variant cannot be excluded. -
not specified Uncertain:1
Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingWomen's Health and Genetics/Laboratory Corporation of America, LabCorpJun 23, 2023Variant summary: NFU1 c.676A>G (p.Asn226Asp) results in a conservative amino acid change located in the C-terminal domain (IPR001075) of the encoded protein sequence. Three of five in-silico tools predict a damaging effect of the variant on protein function. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 2e-05 in 251470 control chromosomes. 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.676A>G in individuals affected with Multiple Mitochondrial Dysfunctions Syndrome 1 has been reported. At least one publication reports experimental evidence evaluating an impact on protein function, finding that the variant may have an impact on protein-protein interactions as well as a defect in lipoylation, however, these findings did not allow convincing conclusions about the variant effect (e.g., Jain_2020). The following publication was ascertained in the context of this evaluation (PMID: 32776106). One submitter has reported clinical-significance assessments for this variant to ClinVar after 2014 and has classified the variant as uncertain significance. Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as uncertain significance. -
Multiple mitochondrial dysfunctions syndrome 1 Uncertain:1
Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingInvitaeJul 30, 2019In summary, the available evidence is currently insufficient to determine the role of this variant in disease. Therefore, it has been classified as a Variant of Uncertain Significance. Algorithms developed to predict the effect of missense changes on protein structure and function do not agree on the potential impact of this missense change (SIFT: "Deleterious"; PolyPhen-2: "Probably Damaging"; Align-GVGD: "Class C0"). This variant has not been reported in the literature in individuals with NFU1-related disease. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 418385). This variant is present in population databases (rs377381866, ExAC 0.001%). This sequence change replaces asparagine with aspartic acid at codon 226 of the NFU1 protein (p.Asn226Asp). The asparagine residue is highly conserved and there is a small physicochemical difference between asparagine and aspartic acid. -
