Variant summary

Our verdict is Pathogenic. The variant received 19 ACMG points: 19P and 0B. PM1 PM2 PM5 PP2 PP3_Strong PP5_Very_Strong

The NM_000143.4(FH):​c.1021G>A​(p.Asp341Asn) variant causes a missense change involving the alteration of a conserved nucleotide. The variant was absent in control chromosomes in GnomAD project. In-silico tool predicts a pathogenic outcome for this variant. 13/22 in silico tools predict a damaging outcome for this variant. Variant has been reported in ClinVar as Likely pathogenic (★★). Another variant affecting the same amino acid position, but resulting in a different missense (i.e. D341G) has been classified as Likely pathogenic.

Genes affected

FH (HGNC:3700): (fumarate hydratase) The protein encoded by this gene is an enzymatic component of the tricarboxylic acid (TCA) cycle, or Krebs cycle, and catalyzes the formation of L-malate from fumarate. It exists in both a cytosolic form and an N-terminal extended form, differing only in the translation start site used. The N-terminal extended form is targeted to the mitochondrion, where the removal of the extension generates the same form as in the cytoplasm. It is similar to some thermostable class II fumarases and functions as a homotetramer. Mutations in this gene can cause fumarase deficiency and lead to progressive encephalopathy.

ACMG classification

Our verdict: Pathogenic. The variant received 19 ACMG points.

• PM1: In a hotspot region, there are 12 aminoacids with missense pathogenic changes in the window of +-8 aminoacids around while only 1 benign, 20 uncertain in NM_000143.4
• PM2: Very rare variant in population databases, with high coverage
• PM5: Other missense variant is known to change same aminoacid residue: Variant chr1-241504128-T-C is described in ClinVar as Conflicting_classifications_of_pathogenicity. ClinVar VariationId is 393575.
• PP2: Missense variant in the gene, where a lot of missense mutations are associated with disease in ClinVar. The gene has 132 curated pathogenic missense variants (we use a threshold of 10). The gene has 17 curated benign missense variants. Gene score misZ: 1.2708 (below the threshold of 3.09). Trascript score misZ: 2.0634 (below the threshold of 3.09). GenCC associations: The gene is linked to fumaric aciduria, hereditary leiomyomatosis and renal cell cancer, hereditary pheochromocytoma-paraganglioma, leiomyosarcoma, pheochromocytoma-paraganglioma.
• PP3: MetaRNN computational evidence supports a deleterious effect, 0.991
• PP5: Variant 1-241504129-C-T is Pathogenic according to our data. Variant chr1-241504129-C-T is described in ClinVar as Pathogenic/Likely_pathogenic. ClinVar VariationId is 405923.Status of the report is criteria_provided_multiple_submitters_no_conflicts, 2 stars.

Significance: Pathogenic

Review Status: criteria provided, single submitter

Collection Method: clinical testing

This sequence change replaces aspartic acid with asparagine at codon 341 of the FH protein (p.Asp341Asn). The aspartic acid residue is highly conserved and there is a small physicochemical difference between aspartic acid and asparagine. This variant is not present in population databases (ExAC no frequency). This variant has been observed in individual(s) with clinical features of hereditary leiomyomatosis and renal cell cancer (PMID: 24684806, 21304509, 22528940). Experimental studies have shown that this variant affects FH protein function ‚Äã(PMID: 21304509) This variant disrupts the p.Asp341 amino acid residue in FH. Other variant(s) that disrupt this residue have been determined to be pathogenic (PMID: 214382, 21051878, Invitae). This suggests that this residue is clinically significant, and that variants that disrupt this residue are likely to be disease-causing. For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. -
