Genes affected

MMACHC (HGNC:24525): (metabolism of cobalamin associated C) The exact function of the protein encoded by this gene is not known, however, its C-terminal region shows similarity to TonB, a bacterial protein involved in energy transduction for cobalamin (vitamin B12) uptake. Hence, it is postulated that this protein may have a role in the binding and intracellular trafficking of cobalamin. Mutations in this gene are associated with methylmalonic aciduria and homocystinuria type cblC. [provided by RefSeq, Oct 2009]

ACMG classification

Verdict is Pathogenic. Variant got 18 ACMG points.

• PVS1: Loss of function variant, product does not undergo nonsense mediated mRNA decay. Variant is located in the 3'-most exon, not predicted to undergo nonsense mediated mRNA decay. There are 40 pathogenic variants in the truncated region.
• PM2: Very rare variant in population databases, with high coverage
• PP5: Variant 1-45508837-G-A is Pathogenic according to our data. Variant chr1-45508837-G-A is described in ClinVar as [Likely_pathogenic]. Clinvar id is 553844.Status of the report is criteria_provided_multiple_submitters_no_conflicts, 2 stars.

Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitter	clinical testing	Invitae	Oct 27, 2023	This sequence change creates a premature translational stop signal (p.Trp157*) in the MMACHC gene. While this is not anticipated to result in nonsense mediated decay, it is expected to disrupt the last 126 amino acid(s) of the MMACHC protein. This variant is not present in population databases (gnomAD no frequency). This premature translational stop signal has been observed in individual(s) with cobalamin C deficiency (PMID: 19370762, 26825575). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 553844). This variant disrupts a region of the MMACHC protein in which other variant(s) (p.Tyr222*) have been determined to be pathogenic (PMID: 16311595, 19767224, 30157807). This suggests that this is a clinically significant region of the protein, and that variants that disrupt it are likely to be disease-causing. For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. -
