Variant summary
Our verdict is Pathogenic. The variant received 18 ACMG points: 18P and 0B. PVS1PM2PP5_Very_Strong
The NM_000143.4(FH):c.40delC(p.Leu14SerfsTer9) variant causes a frameshift change involving the alteration of a non-conserved nucleotide. The variant was absent in control chromosomes in GnomAD project. Variant has been reported in ClinVar as Likely pathogenic (★★). Synonymous variant affecting the same amino acid position (i.e. L14L) has been classified as Likely benign.

This sequence change creates a premature translational stop signal (p.Leu14Serfs*9) in the FH gene. FH has two initiator codons, p.Met1 and p.Met44, which result in two different functional isoforms that localize to the mitochondria and cytosol, respectively (PMID: 21929734, 27037871). Loss-of-function variants in FH are known to be pathogenic (PMID: 11865300, 21398687). Variants affecting the mitochondrial isoform confer risk for fumarate hydratase deficiency, while variants that affect the cytosolic isoform confer risk for FH tumor predisposition syndrome. This variant is not present in population databases (gnomAD no frequency). This variant has not been reported in the literature in individuals affected with FH-related conditions. This variant disrupts the mitochondria-targeting sequence (MTS) of the FH protein, which is important for protein import into the mitochondria (PMID: 27037871). This suggests that disruption of this region is causative of fumarate hydratase deficiency. For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic for autosomal recessive fumarate hydratase deficiency. However, this variant is not likely to confer risk for autosomal dominant FH tumor predisposition syndrome. -
