Variant summary

Our verdict is Pathogenic. The variant received 13 ACMG points: 13P and 0B. PM1 PM2 PM5 PP2 PP3_Strong PP5_Moderate

The NM_004453.4(ETFDH):​c.380T>G​(p.Leu127Arg) variant causes a missense change involving the alteration of a conserved nucleotide. The variant was absent in control chromosomes in GnomAD project. In-silico tool predicts a pathogenic outcome for this variant. Variant has been reported in ClinVar as Pathogenic (★). Another variant affecting the same amino acid position, but resulting in a different missense (i.e. L127P) has been classified as Likely pathogenic.

Genes affected

ETFDH (HGNC:3483): (electron transfer flavoprotein dehydrogenase) This gene encodes a component of the electron-transfer system in mitochondria and is essential for electron transfer from a number of mitochondrial flavin-containing dehydrogenases to the main respiratory chain. Mutations in this gene are associated with glutaric acidemia. Alternatively spliced transcript variants that encode distinct isoforms have been observed. [provided by RefSeq, Aug 2013]

ETFDH Gene-Disease associations (from GenCC):

• multiple acyl-CoA dehydrogenase deficiency

ACMG classification

Our verdict: Pathogenic. The variant received 13 ACMG points.

• PM1: In a hotspot region, there are 2 aminoacids with missense pathogenic changes in the window of +-8 aminoacids around while only 0 benign, 6 uncertain in NM_004453.4
• PM2: Very rare variant in population databases, with high coverage
• PM5: Other missense variant is known to change same aminoacid residue: Variant chr4-158682399-T-C is described in ClinVar as Likely_pathogenic. ClinVar VariationId is 203712.Status of the report is criteria_provided_multiple_submitters_no_conflicts, 2 stars.
• PP2: Missense variant in the gene, where a lot of missense mutations are associated with disease in ClinVar. The gene has 86 curated pathogenic missense variants (we use a threshold of 10). The gene has 11 curated benign missense variants. Gene score misZ: 0.39306 (below the threshold of 3.09). Trascript score misZ: 0.49505 (below the threshold of 3.09). GenCC associations: The gene is linked to multiple acyl-CoA dehydrogenase deficiency.
• PP3: MetaRNN computational evidence supports a deleterious effect, 0.992
• PP5: Variant 4-158682399-T-G is Pathogenic according to our data. Variant chr4-158682399-T-G is described in ClinVar as Pathogenic. ClinVar VariationId is 1456455.Status of the report is criteria_provided_single_submitter, 1 stars.

For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. This variant disrupts the p.Leu127 amino acid residue in ETFDH. Other variant(s) that disrupt this residue have been determined to be pathogenic (PMID: 19249206). This suggests that this residue is clinically significant, and that variants that disrupt this residue are likely to be disease-causing. Advanced modeling of protein sequence and biophysical properties (such as structural, functional, and spatial information, amino acid conservation, physicochemical variation, residue mobility, and thermodynamic stability) performed at Invitae indicates that this missense variant is expected to disrupt ETFDH protein function. This missense change has been observed in individual(s) with multiple acyl-coenzyme A dehydrogenase deficiency (PMID: 19758981). In at least one individual the data is consistent with being in trans (on the opposite chromosome) from a pathogenic variant. This variant is not present in population databases (gnomAD no frequency). This sequence change replaces leucine, which is neutral and non-polar, with arginine, which is basic and polar, at codon 127 of the ETFDH protein (p.Leu127Arg).
