Variant summary

Our verdict is Pathogenic. Variant got 18 ACMG points: 18P and 0B. PVS1 PM2 PP5_Very_Strong

The NM_000143.4(FH):​c.739G>T​(p.Glu247*) variant causes a stop gained, splice region change. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 0.000000686 in 1,458,138 control chromosomes in the GnomAD database, with no homozygous occurrence. In-silico tool predicts a pathogenic outcome for this variant. 2/3 splice prediction tools predicting alterations to normal splicing. Variant has been reported in ClinVar as Pathogenic (★★). Synonymous variant affecting the same amino acid position (i.e. E247E) has been classified as Likely benign. Variant results in nonsense mediated mRNA decay.

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

Verdict is Pathogenic. Variant got 18 ACMG points.

• PVS1: Loss of function variant, product undergoes nonsense mediated mRNA decay. LoF is a known mechanism of disease.
• PM2: Very rare variant in population databases, with high coverage
• PP5: Variant 1-241506168-C-A is Pathogenic according to our data. Variant chr1-241506168-C-A is described in ClinVar as [Pathogenic]. Clinvar id is 429182.Status of the report is criteria_provided_multiple_submitters_no_conflicts, 2 stars.

This variant is not present in population databases (ExAC no frequency). For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. Loss-of-function variants in FH are known to be pathogenic (PMID: 11865300, 21398687). This variant has not been reported in the literature in individuals with FH-related disease. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 429182). This sequence change creates a premature translational stop signal (p.Glu247*) in the FH gene. It is expected to result in an absent or disrupted protein product. -

The p.E247* pathogenic mutation (also known as c.739G>T), located in coding exon 6 of the FH gene, results from a G to T substitution at nucleotide position 739. This change occurs in the first base pair of coding exon 6 and changes the amino acid from a glutamic acid to a stop codon at codon 247. Since premature stop codons are typically deleterious in nature, this alteration is interpreted as a disease-causing mutation (ACMG Recommendations for Standards for Interpretation and Reporting of Sequence Variations. Revision 2007. Genet Med. 2008;10:294). -
