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]

Submissions by phenotype

not specified Uncertain:1
Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingAmbry GeneticsOct 20, 2023The c.700G>T (p.G234C) alteration is located in exon 6 (coding exon 6) of the BHMT gene. This alteration results from a G to T substitution at nucleotide position 700, causing the glycine (G) at amino acid position 234 to be replaced by a cysteine (C). Based on insufficient or conflicting evidence, the clinical significance of this alteration remains unclear. -
