Genes affected
MTR (HGNC:7468): (5-methyltetrahydrofolate-homocysteine methyltransferase) This gene encodes the 5-methyltetrahydrofolate-homocysteine methyltransferase. This enzyme, also known as cobalamin-dependent methionine synthase, catalyzes the final step in methionine biosynthesis. Mutations in MTR have been identified as the underlying cause of methylcobalamin deficiency complementation group G. Alternatively spliced transcript variants encoding distinct isoforms have been found for this gene. [provided by RefSeq, May 2014]

Significance: Pathogenic
Review Status: criteria provided, single submitter
Collection Method: clinical testing

For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 14286). This premature translational stop signal has been observed in individual(s) with clinical features of homocystinuria (PMID: 12068375). This variant is present in population databases (rs121913580, gnomAD 0.003%). This sequence change creates a premature translational stop signal (p.Arg585*) in the MTR gene. It is expected to result in an absent or disrupted protein product. Loss-of-function variants in MTR are known to be pathogenic (PMID: 9683607, 12068375). -

Significance: Pathogenic
Review Status: criteria provided, single submitter
Collection Method: clinical testing

Variant summary: MTR c.1753C>T (p.Arg585X) results in a premature termination codon, predicted to cause a truncation of the encoded protein or absence of the protein due to nonsense mediated decay, which are commonly known mechanisms for disease. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 2e-05 in 251306 control chromosomes (gnomAD). c.1753C>T has been reported in the literature in at least an individual affected with methylcobalamin deficiency type cblG (Watkins_2002). The following publication has been ascertained in the context of this evaluation (PMID: 12068375). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 14286). Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as pathogenic. -
