Genes affected

FECH (HGNC:3647): (ferrochelatase) The protein encoded by this gene is localized to the mitochondrion, where it catalyzes the insertion of the ferrous form of iron into protoporphyrin IX in the heme synthesis pathway. Mutations in this gene are associated with erythropoietic protoporphyria. Two transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been found for this gene. A pseudogene of this gene is found on chromosome 3.[provided by RefSeq, May 2010]

Significance:Pathogenic

Review Status:criteria provided, single submitter

Collection Method:clinical testing

This sequence change affects a donor splice site in intron 3 of the FECH gene. RNA analysis indicates that disruption of this splice site induces altered splicing and likely results in a shortened protein product. This variant is present in population databases (rs149067146, gnomAD 0.004%). Disruption of this splice site has been observed in individual(s) with clinical features of erythropoietic protoporphyria (PMID: 8151124, 9649563; internal data). In at least one individual the data is consistent with being in trans (on the opposite chromosome) from a pathogenic variant. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 555). Studies have shown that disruption of this splice site alters FECH gene expression (PMID: 9649563). Studies have shown that disruption of this splice site results in skipping of exon 3, but is expected to preserve the integrity of the reading-frame (PMID: 8151124). For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. -
