This sequence change affects the initiator methionine of the FAH mRNA. The next in-frame methionine is located at codon 71. This variant is present in population databases (no rsID available, gnomAD 0.003%). Disruption of the initiator codon has been observed in individual(s) with tyrosinemia type I (PMID: 21764616, 22802474, 24016420). It has also been observed to segregate with disease in related individuals. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 372766). For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. -

Variant summary: FAH c.1A>G (p.Met1Val) alters the initiation codon and is predicted to result either in absence of the protein or truncation of the encoded protein due to translation initiation at a downstream codon. Three of three in-silico tools predict a benign effect of the variant on protein function. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 8e-06 in 250698 control chromosomes (gnomAD). c.1A>G has been reported in the literature in multiple individuals (several of them were homozygous) affected with Tyrosinemia Type 1 (example: Ibarra-Gonzalez_2019, Mohamed_2013, Imtiaz_2011). These data indicate that the variant is very likely to be associated with disease. One publication reports experimental evidence evaluating an impact on protein function, however, does not allow convincing conclusions about the variant effect (Macias_2019). Two ClinVar submitters (evaluation after 2014) cite the variant as pathogenic. Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as pathogenic. -
