The NM_005957.5(MTHFR):c.665C>G (p.Ala222Gly) variant causes a missense change involving the alteration of a conserved nucleotide. The variant is absent from the gnomAD population database at sites with sufficient sequencing coverage. In-silico predictor (REVEL) classifies this variant as likely damaging/oncogenic. Splicing prediction tools (SpliceAI) predict no significant impact on normal splicing. The affected nucleotide is highly conserved across species (PhyloP 100-way vertebrate score: 9.14). No clinical diagnostic laboratories have submitted clinical-significance assessments for this variant to ClinVar. Other variants at the same amino acid position have been reported in ClinVar (not pathogenic): p.A222= (synonymous): Likely_benign (ClinVar VariationId 1658853, 1 star); p.A222V: Likely_benign (ClinVar VariationId 2194685, 1 star); p.A222V: drug_response (ClinVar VariationId 3520, 3 stars)

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]

MTHFR Gene-Disease associations (from GenCC):

• homocystinuria due to methylene tetrahydrofolate reductase deficiency

Classification according to ACMG Germline Pathogenicity v2019

Our verdict: Likely_pathogenic. The variant received 6 ACMG points.

• PM1: Missense neighbourhood hotspot (≥2 P/LP within ±8 AA, OR ≥ 5 vs. background) — PM1; In-domain: 0 pathogenic, 0 benign rare missense variants.; ±8 AA neighbourhood: 3 pathogenic, 1 benign (OR vs. background: 11.7).
• PM2: Absent from gnomAD (AR/unknown gene) — PM2; Absent from gnomAD at well-covered site (MOI: AR) (threshold 0.001) — PM2 moderate.
• PP3: Germline meta computational scorer (REVEL/MetaRNN/BayesDel) predicts damaging effect — moderate evidence (PP3); Splicing verdict: not pathogenic.; Germline computational verdict: pathogenic (Moderate).
