Genes affected
COQ4 (HGNC:19693): (coenzyme Q4) This gene encodes a component of the coenzyme Q biosynthesis pathway. Coenzyme Q, an essential component of the electron transport chain, shuttles electrons between complexes I or II to complex III of the mitochondrial transport chain. This protein appears to play a structural role in stabilizing a complex that contains most of the coenzyme Q biosynthesis enzymes. Mutations in this gene are associated with mitochondrial disorders linked to coenzyme Q deficiency. Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants. [provided by RefSeq, Apr 2015]

The missense variant p.F146C in COQ4 (NM_016035.5) has been previously reported (Bertoli-Avella AM et al). The variant has been submitted to ClinVar as Pathogenic/Likely pathogenic and Uncertain Significance. The p.F146C variant is observed in 1/2,25,000 (0.0004%) alleles from individuals of all background in gnomAD Exomes and is novel (not in any individuals) in 1000 Genomes. The p.F146C missense variant is predicted to be damaging by both SIFT and PolyPhen2. The phenylalanine residue at codon 146 of COQ4 is conserved in all mammalian species. The nucleotide c.437 in COQ4 is predicted conserved by GERP++ and PhyloP across 100 vertebrates. For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Likely Pathogenic. -

This sequence change replaces phenylalanine, which is neutral and non-polar, with cysteine, which is neutral and slightly polar, at codon 146 of the COQ4 protein (p.Phe146Cys). This variant is present in population databases (no rsID available, gnomAD no frequency). This missense change has been observed in individuals with coenzyme Q10 deficiency (PMID: 32860008, 33215859, 34656997, 36047608). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 488487). 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) has been performed at Invitae for this missense variant, however the output from this modeling did not meet the statistical confidence thresholds required to predict the impact of this variant on COQ4 protein function. Studies have shown that this missense change alters COQ4 gene expression (PMID: 34656997, 36047608). For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. -
