Variant summary

Our verdict is Uncertain significance. The variant received 0 ACMG points: 1P and 1B. PP3BS1_Supporting

The NM_000144.5(FXN):​c.118C>T​(p.Arg40Cys) variant causes a missense change involving the alteration of a non-conserved nucleotide. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 0.000662 in 1,487,292 control chromosomes in the GnomAD database, including 1 homozygotes. In-silico tool predicts a pathogenic outcome for this variant. Variant has been reported in ClinVar as Conflicting classifications of pathogenicity (no stars). Another variant affecting the same amino acid position, but resulting in a different missense (i.e. R40H) has been classified as Uncertain significance.

Genes affected
FXN (HGNC:3951): (frataxin) This nuclear gene encodes a mitochondrial protein which belongs to the FRATAXIN family. The protein functions in regulating mitochondrial iron transport and respiration. The expansion of intronic trinucleotide repeat GAA from 8-33 repeats to >90 repeats results in Friedreich ataxia. Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants.

ACMG classification

Classification was made for transcript

Our verdict: Uncertain_significance. The variant received 0 ACMG points.

PP3
MetaRNN computational evidence supports a deleterious effect, 0.793
BS1
Variant frequency is greater than expected in population nfe. GnomAdExome4 allele frequency = 0.000692 (924/1335348) while in subpopulation NFE AF = 0.000842 (890/1057314). AF 95% confidence interval is 0.000795. There are 1 homozygotes in GnomAdExome4. There are 440 alleles in the male GnomAdExome4 subpopulation. Median coverage is 36. This position passed quality control check. Existence of Clinvar submissions makes me limit the strength of this signal to Supporting
