Observed in trans or phase unknown with FH Lys477dup (also known as Lys434ins) in children with fumarase deficiency (Gellera 1990, Chakravorty 2020); Not observed at significant frequency in large population cohorts (gnomAD); In silico analysis supports that this missense variant has a deleterious effect on protein structure/function; Also known as p.Arg190Cys; This variant is associated with the following publications: (PMID: 16639410, 28300276, 21445611, 11865300, 16597677, 9300800, 18366737, 15761418, 20618355, 12612654, 21404119, 2314594, 15937070, 28152038, 32999401, 21398687) -
The FH c.697C>T (p.Arg233Cys) variant has been reported in the published literature in individuals and families with hereditary leiomyomatosis and renal cell cancer (HLRCC) (PMIDs: 36777509 (2023), 33167498 (2020), 21398687 (2011), 15937070 (2006), 15761418 (2005)) and fumarate hydratase deficiency (PMIDs: 32999401 (2020), 2314594 (1990)). Functional studies report this variant results in decreased enzyme activity and impaired protein function (PMID: 21398687 (2011), 16597677 (2006), 2314594 (1990)). The frequency of this variant in the general population, 0.0000066 (1/152132 chromosomes (Genome Aggregation Database, http://gnomad.broadinstitute.org)), is consistent with pathogenicity. Analysis of this variant using bioinformatics tools for the prediction of the effect of amino acid changes on protein structure and function yielded predictions that this variant is damaging. Based on the available information, this variant is classified as pathogenic. -
This sequence change replaces arginine, which is basic and polar, with cysteine, which is neutral and slightly polar, at codon 233 of the FH protein (p.Arg233Cys). This variant is not present in population databases (gnomAD no frequency). This missense change has been observed in individuals with hereditary leiomyomatosis and renal cell cancer and fumarate hydratase deficiency (PMID: 2314594, 9300800, 15761418, 15937070, 21398687; internal data). This variant is also known as c.568C>T, p.Arg190Cys. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 141355). Invitae Evidence Modeling of protein sequence and biophysical properties (such as structural, functional, and spatial information, amino acid conservation, physicochemical variation, residue mobility, and thermodynamic stability) indicates that this missense variant is expected to disrupt FH protein function with a positive predictive value of 95%. Experimental studies have shown that this missense change affects FH function (PMID: 2314594, 9300800, 21398687, 21445611). This variant disrupts the p.Arg233 amino acid residue in FH. Other variant(s) that disrupt this residue have been determined to be pathogenic (PMID: 11865300, 12772087, 15937070, 17960613, 20618355, 22127509). 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. -

Variant summary: FH c.697C>T (p.Arg233Cys) results in a non-conservative amino acid change located in the Class II fumarases domain of the encoded protein sequence. Five of five in-silico tools predict a damaging effect of the variant on protein function. The variant was absent in 251278 control chromosomes. c.697C>T has been reported in the literature in multiple individuals affected with Fumarate Hydratase Deficiency or Hereditary Leiomyomatosis And Renal Cell Cancer. These data indicate that the variant is very likely to be associated with disease. A different variant affecting the same codon has been classified as pathogenic by our lab (c.698G>A, p.Arg233His), supporting the critical relevance of codon 233 to FH protein function. The following publications have been ascertained in the context of this evaluation (PMID: 21398687, 9300800). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 141355). Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as pathogenic. -

The p.R233C pathogenic mutation (also known as c.697C>T), located in coding exon 5 of the FH gene, results from a C to T substitution at nucleotide position 697. The arginine at codon 233 is replaced by cysteine, an amino acid with highly dissimilar properties. This mutation, which occurs in the enzyme active site, has been identified in multiple families with HLRCC to date (Picaud S et al. J. Inherit. Metab. Dis. 2011 Jun;34(3):671-6; Gardie B et al. J. Med. Genet. 2011 Apr;48(4):226-34), including a family where the mutation was found to segregate with renal cell carcinoma through two generations (Wei MH et al. J. Med. Genet. 2006 Jan;43(1):18-27). This mutation has also been observed in a family with multiple cutaneous and uterine leiomyomata (Chuang GS et al. J. Am. Acad. Dermatol. 2005 Mar;52(3 Pt 1):410-6). In addition, this mutation was observed in a compound heterozygous state with a second pathogenic mutation in a child with fumarase deficiency (Rustin P et al. Biochim. Biophys. Acta. 1997 Aug 22;1361(2):185-97). Of note, this alteration is also designated as R190C (568C>T) in published literature. Based on the available evidence, this alteration is classified as a pathogenic mutation. -
