Variant summary

Our verdict is Likely benign. The variant received -5 ACMG points: 0P and 5B. BS1_SupportingBS2

The NM_005957.5(MTHFR):​c.1556G>T​(p.Arg519Leu) variant causes a missense change. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 0.000448 in 1,614,112 control chromosomes in the GnomAD database, including 7 homozygotes. In-silico tool predicts a benign 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. R519C) has been classified as Likely benign.

Genes affected
MTHFR (HGNC:7436): (methylenetetrahydrofolate reductase) The protein encoded by this gene catalyzes the conversion of 5,10-methylenetetrahydrofolate to 5-methyltetrahydrofolate, a co-substrate for homocysteine remethylation to methionine. Genetic variation in this gene influences susceptibility to occlusive vascular disease, neural tube defects, colon cancer and acute leukemia, and mutations in this gene are associated with methylenetetrahydrofolate reductase deficiency.[provided by RefSeq, Oct 2009]

ACMG classification

Classification was made for transcript

Our verdict: Likely_benign. The variant received -5 ACMG points.

BS1
Variant frequency is greater than expected in population afr. GnomAd4 allele frequency = 0.00112 (170/152320) while in subpopulation AFR AF = 0.0032 (133/41562). AF 95% confidence interval is 0.00276. There are 4 homozygotes in GnomAd4. There are 81 alleles in the male GnomAd4 subpopulation. Median coverage is 33. This position FAILED quality control check. Existence of Clinvar submissions makes me limit the strength of this signal to Supporting
BS2
High Homozygotes in GnomAd4 at 4 AR gene
