Genes affected
FH (HGNC:3700): (fumarate hydratase) The protein encoded by this gene is an enzymatic component of the tricarboxylic acid (TCA) cycle, or Krebs cycle, and catalyzes the formation of L-malate from fumarate. It exists in both a cytosolic form and an N-terminal extended form, differing only in the translation start site used. The N-terminal extended form is targeted to the mitochondrion, where the removal of the extension generates the same form as in the cytoplasm. It is similar to some thermostable class II fumarases and functions as a homotetramer. Mutations in this gene can cause fumarase deficiency and lead to progressive encephalopathy.

ACMG classification

Classification was made for transcript

Our verdict: Pathogenic. The variant received 18 ACMG points.

PVS1
Loss of function variant, product does not undergo nonsense mediated mRNA decay. Variant located near the start codon (<100nt), not predicted to undergo nonsense mediated mRNA decay. There are 482 pathogenic variants in the truncated region.
PM2
Very rare variant in population databases, with high coverage;
PP5
Variant 1-241519682-AG-A is Pathogenic according to our data. Variant chr1-241519682-AG-A is described in ClinVar as Pathogenic/Likely_pathogenic. ClinVar VariationId is 2911993.Status of the report is criteria_provided_multiple_submitters_no_conflicts, 2 stars.

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. -
