Genes affected
FTCD (HGNC:3974): (formimidoyltransferase cyclodeaminase) The protein encoded by this gene is a bifunctional enzyme that channels 1-carbon units from formiminoglutamate, a metabolite of the histidine degradation pathway, to the folate pool. Mutations in this gene are associated with glutamate formiminotransferase deficiency. Alternatively spliced transcript variants have been found for this gene.[provided by RefSeq, Dec 2009]

Submissions by phenotype

Inborn genetic diseases Uncertain:1
Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingAmbry GeneticsAug 30, 2022The c.1615C>T (p.R539W) alteration is located in exon 14 (coding exon 14) of the FTCD gene. This alteration results from a C to T substitution at nucleotide position 1615, causing the arginine (R) at amino acid position 539 to be replaced by a tryptophan (W). Based on insufficient or conflicting evidence, the clinical significance of this alteration remains unclear. -
Glutamate formiminotransferase deficiency Uncertain:1
Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingInvitaeDec 21, 2023This sequence change replaces arginine, which is basic and polar, with tryptophan, which is neutral and slightly polar, at codon 539 of the FTCD protein (p.Arg539Trp). This variant is present in population databases (rs756994444, gnomAD 0.01%). This variant has not been reported in the literature in individuals affected with FTCD-related conditions. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 958004). An algorithm developed to predict the effect of missense changes on protein structure and function (PolyPhen-2) suggests that this variant is likely to be disruptive. In 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. -
