Genes affected
MTHFR (HGNC:7436): (methylenetetrahydrofolate reductase) The protein encoded by this gene catalyzes the conversion of 5,10-methylenetetrahydrofolate to 5-methyltetrahydrofolate, a co-substrate for homocysteine remethylation to methionine. Genetic variation in this gene influences susceptibility to occlusive vascular disease, neural tube defects, colon cancer and acute leukemia, and mutations in this gene are associated with methylenetetrahydrofolate reductase deficiency.[provided by RefSeq, Oct 2009]

This sequence change creates a premature translational stop signal (p.Arg183*) in the MTHFR gene. It is expected to result in an absent or disrupted protein product. Loss-of-function variants in MTHFR are known to be pathogenic (PMID: 25736335). This variant is not present in population databases (gnomAD no frequency). This premature translational stop signal has been observed in individual(s) with MTHFR deficiency (PMID: 7920641, 25024447, 25736335). It has also been observed to segregate with disease in related individuals. This variant is also known as c.559C>T. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 3518). For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. -
