This variant is considered pathogenic. This variant creates a termination codon and is predicted to result in premature protein truncation. -
This sequence change creates a premature translational stop signal (p.Arg101*) in the FH gene. It is expected to result in an absent or disrupted protein product. Loss-of-function variants in FH are known to be pathogenic (PMID: 11865300, 21398687). This variant is not present in population databases (gnomAD no frequency). This premature translational stop signal has been observed in individual(s) with renal cancer and uterine leiomyomas (PMID: 121398687, 25525159, 16597677, 11865300, 25923021, 12761039, 15987702, 15937070, 28300276, 27635946, 28152038, 34426522). This variant is also known as p.Arg58*. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 16232). Algorithms developed to predict the effect of sequence changes on RNA splicing suggest that this variant may create or strengthen a splice site. For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. -

Nonsense variant predicted to result in protein truncation or nonsense mediated decay in a gene for which loss-of-function is a known mechanism of disease; Published functional studies demonstrate a damaging effect: reduced enzymatic activity (Pithukpakorn 2006); Not observed in large population cohorts (gnomAD); Also known as R58X; This variant is associated with the following publications: (PMID: 21398687, 25525159, 16597677, 11865300, 25923021, 12761039, 15987702, 15937070, 28300276, 27635946, 28152038, 34426522) -

Hereditary cancer-predisposing syndrome Pathogenic:1
The p.R101* pathogenic mutation (also known as c.301C>T), located in coding exon 3 of the FH gene, results from a C to T substitution at nucleotide position 301. This changes the amino acid from an arginine to a stop codon within coding exon 3. This mutation has been identified in several individuals diagnosed with multiple leiomyomas, some of whom also had uterine fibroids and/or renal tumors (Tomlinson IP et al. Nat. Genet. 2002 Apr;30:406-10; Wei MH et al. J. Med. Genet. 2006 Jan;43:18-27; Gardie B et al. J. Med. Genet. 2011 Apr;48:226-34). One functional study showed significantly reduced FH enzyme activity in lymphoblastoid and fibroblast cell lines from a hereditary leiomyomatosis and renal cell cancer (HLRCC) patient with this mutation when compared to controls (Pithukpakorn M et al. J. Med. Genet. 2006 Sep;43:755-62). Of note, this alteration is also designated as R58X (c.172C>T) in published literature. This variant is considered to be rare based on population cohorts in the Genome Aggregation Database (gnomAD). In addition to the clinical data presented in the literature, this alteration is expected to result in loss of function by premature protein truncation or nonsense-mediated mRNA decay. As such, this alteration is interpreted as a disease-causing mutation. -
