Variant summary

Our verdict is Pathogenic. The variant received 18 ACMG points: 18P and 0B. PS3PM1PM5PP2PP3PP5_Very_Strong

The NM_015506.3(MMACHC):​c.482G>A​(p.Arg161Gln) variant causes a missense change involving the alteration of a conserved nucleotide. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 0.0000551 in 1,614,044 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 (★★). ClinVar reports functional evidence for this variant: "SCV000699401: "In the functional studies mutant R161Q has a decreased ability to bind incoming CNCbl, which results in a decreased ability to reductively decyanate the CNCbl to the cob(II)alamin form used in the metabolic pathway (PS3)."" and additional evidence is available in ClinVar. Another variant affecting the same amino acid position, but resulting in a different missense (i.e. R161G) has been classified as Likely pathogenic.

Genes affected
MMACHC (HGNC:24525): (metabolism of cobalamin associated C) The exact function of the protein encoded by this gene is not known, however, its C-terminal region shows similarity to TonB, a bacterial protein involved in energy transduction for cobalamin (vitamin B12) uptake. Hence, it is postulated that this protein may have a role in the binding and intracellular trafficking of cobalamin. Mutations in this gene are associated with methylmalonic aciduria and homocystinuria type cblC. [provided by RefSeq, Oct 2009]
MMACHC Gene-Disease associations (from GenCC):
  • methylmalonic aciduria and homocystinuria type cblC

ACMG classification

Classification was made for transcript

Our verdict: Pathogenic. The variant received 18 ACMG points.

PS3
PS3 evidence extracted from ClinVar submissions: SCV000699401: "In the functional studies mutant R161Q has a decreased ability to bind incoming CNCbl, which results in a decreased ability to reductively decyanate the CNCbl to the cob(II)alamin form used in the metabolic pathway (PS3)."; SCV000762779: Experimental studies have shown that this missense change affects MMACHC function (PMID: 19700356, 20219402, 25809485).; SCV005416550: "Well-established in vitro or in vivo functional studies supportive of a damaging effect on the gene or gene product."; SCV000321902: Published functional studies demonstrate reduced protein stability (Gherasim et al., 2015; Froese et al., 2009); SCV000604240: Functional characterization of the variant protein indicates lower thermostability compared to wild type and impaired binding and stabilization of vitamin B12 (Froese 2010, Gherasim 2015).
PM1
In a hotspot region, there are 6 aminoacids with missense pathogenic changes in the window of +-8 aminoacids around while only 1 benign, 9 uncertain in NM_015506.3
PM5
Other missense variant is known to change same aminoacid residue: Variant chr1-45508847-C-G is described in ClinVar as Pathogenic/Likely_pathogenic. ClinVar VariationId is 813351.Status of the report is criteria_provided_multiple_submitters_no_conflicts, 2 stars.
PP2
Missense variant in the gene, where a lot of missense mutations are associated with disease in ClinVar. The gene has 28 curated pathogenic missense variants (we use a threshold of 10). The gene has 7 curated benign missense variants. Gene score misZ: -1.0759 (below the threshold of 3.09). Trascript score misZ: -0.13772 (below the threshold of 3.09). GenCC associations: The gene is linked to methylmalonic aciduria and homocystinuria type cblC.
PP3
MetaRNN computational evidence supports a deleterious effect, 0.762
PP5
Variant 1-45508848-G-A is Pathogenic according to our data. Variant chr1-45508848-G-A is described in ClinVar as Pathogenic/Likely_pathogenic. ClinVar VariationId is 1425.Status of the report is criteria_provided_multiple_submitters_no_conflicts, 2 stars.
