Variant summary

Our verdict is . The variant received 2 ACMG points: 2P and 0B. PM2

The NM_001713.3(BHMT):c.121G>C (p.Ala41Pro) variant causes a missense change involving the alteration of a conserved nucleotide. The variant allele was found at a cumulative frequency of 0.00000372 (AC=6) in the gnomAD database across 1,613,922 control chromosomes (no homozygotes observed). The grpmax filtering allele frequency (95% CI) is 0.0000099. Splicing prediction tools (SpliceAI) predict no significant impact on normal splicing. The affected nucleotide is highly conserved across species (PhyloP 100-way vertebrate score: 9.60). Variant has been reported in ClinVar as Uncertain Significance (★). Other variants at the same amino acid position have been reported in ClinVar (not pathogenic): p.A41T: Uncertain_significance (ClinVar VariationId 3991407, 1 star)

Genes affected
BHMT (HGNC:1047): (betaine--homocysteine S-methyltransferase) This gene encodes a cytosolic enzyme that catalyzes the conversion of betaine and homocysteine to dimethylglycine and methionine, respectively. Defects in this gene could lead to hyperhomocyst(e)inemia, but such a defect has not yet been observed. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]
DMGDH (HGNC:24475): (dimethylglycine dehydrogenase) This gene encodes an enzyme involved in the catabolism of choline, catalyzing the oxidative demethylation of dimethylglycine to form sarcosine. The enzyme is found as a monomer in the mitochondrial matrix, and uses flavin adenine dinucleotide and folate as cofactors. Mutation in this gene causes dimethylglycine dehydrogenase deficiency, characterized by a fishlike body odor, chronic muscle fatigue, and elevated levels of the muscle form of creatine kinase in serum. Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2013]
