Variant summary
Our verdict is Pathogenic. Variant got 14 ACMG points: 14P and 0B. PM2PP3_StrongPP5_Very_Strong
The ENST00000376590.9(MTHFR):c.470G>A(p.Arg157Gln) variant causes a missense change involving the alteration of a conserved nucleotide. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 0.0000124 in 1,613,078 control chromosomes in the GnomAD database, with no homozygous occurrence. In-silico tool predicts a pathogenic outcome for this variant. Variant has been reported in ClinVar as Likely pathogenic (★★). Another variant affecting the same amino acid position, but resulting in a different missense (i.e. R157W) has been classified as Uncertain significance.

Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitter | clinical testing | Labcorp Genetics (formerly Invitae), Labcorp | Sep 07, 2023 | 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 MTHFR protein function. Experimental studies have shown that this missense change affects MTHFR function (PMID: 27743313). For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 3519). This sequence change replaces arginine, which is basic and polar, with glutamine, which is neutral and polar, at codon 157 of the MTHFR protein (p.Arg157Gln). This variant is present in population databases (rs121434295, gnomAD 0.01%). This missense change has been observed in individual(s) with MTHFR deficiency (PMID: 7920641, 10679944, 25736335). In at least one individual the data is consistent with being in trans (on the opposite chromosome) from a pathogenic variant. It has also been observed to segregate with disease in related individuals. This variant is also known as 482G>A. - |
