Genes affected
MTHFS (HGNC:7437): (methenyltetrahydrofolate synthetase) The protein encoded by this gene is an enzyme that catalyzes the conversion of 5-formyltetrahydrofolate to 5,10-methenyltetrahydrofolate, a precursor of reduced folates involved in 1-carbon metabolism. An increased activity of the encoded protein can result in an increased folate turnover rate and folate depletion. Three transcript variants encoding two different isoforms have been found for this gene. [provided by RefSeq, Jun 2011]

Submissions by phenotype

Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingLabcorp Genetics (formerly Invitae), LabcorpAug 03, 2022This variant has not been reported in the literature in individuals affected with MTHFS-related conditions. In summary, the available evidence is currently insufficient to determine the role of this variant in disease. Therefore, it has been classified as a Variant of Uncertain Significance. Algorithms developed to predict the effect of sequence changes on RNA splicing suggest that this variant is not likely to affect RNA splicing. This variant is present in population databases (rs138155613, gnomAD 0.1%), and has an allele count higher than expected for a pathogenic variant. This sequence change affects codon 126 of the MTHFS mRNA. It is a 'silent' change, meaning that it does not change the encoded amino acid sequence of the MTHFS protein. It affects a nucleotide within the consensus splice site. -
