• NM_033540.3:c.259_261delGGGinsCGA
• MFN1 p.Gly87Arg

Variant summary

Our verdict is Uncertain significance. The variant received 1 ACMG points: 1P and 0B. PP3

The NM_033540.3(MFN1):​c.259_261delGGGinsCGA​(p.Gly87Arg) variant causes a missense change involving the alteration of a conserved nucleotide. The variant was absent in control chromosomes in GnomAD project. It is difficult to determine the true allele frequency of this variant because it is of type MNV, and the frequency of such variant types in population databases may be underestimated and unreliable. No clinical diagnostic laboratories have submitted clinical-significance assessments for this variant to ClinVar. Another nucleotide change resulting in the same amino acid substitution has been previously reported as Uncertain significance in ClinVar.

Genes affected

MFN1 (HGNC:18262): (mitofusin 1) The protein encoded by this gene is a mediator of mitochondrial fusion. This protein and mitofusin 2 are homologs of the Drosophila protein fuzzy onion (Fzo). They are mitochondrial membrane proteins that interact with each other to facilitate mitochondrial targeting. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]

ACMG classification

Our verdict: Uncertain_significance. The variant received 1 ACMG points.

• PP3: No computational evidence supports a deleterious effect, but strongly conserved according to phyloP
