Genes affected
ETFDH (HGNC:3483): (electron transfer flavoprotein dehydrogenase) This gene encodes a component of the electron-transfer system in mitochondria and is essential for electron transfer from a number of mitochondrial flavin-containing dehydrogenases to the main respiratory chain. Mutations in this gene are associated with glutaric acidemia. Alternatively spliced transcript variants that encode distinct isoforms have been observed. [provided by RefSeq, Aug 2013]

Variant summary: ETFDH c.380T>A (p.Leu127His) results in a non-conservative amino acid change in the encoded protein sequence. Five of five in-silico tools predict a damaging effect of the variant on protein function. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 8e-06 in 251414 control chromosomes (gnomAD). c.380T>A has been reported in the literature in multiple individuals affected with Glutaric Aciduria, Type 2c (example: Liang_2009, Wen_2010, Chien_2013, Lin_2019, Bylstra_2019 and Kuo_2021). These data indicate that the variant is very likely to be associated with disease. Two clinical diagnostic laboratories have submitted clinical-significance assessments for this variant to ClinVar after 2014 and classified the variant as pathogenic/likely pathogenic. Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as pathogenic.

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

For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. This variant disrupts the p.Leu127 amino acid residue in ETFDH. Other variant(s) that disrupt this residue have been observed in individuals with ETFDH-related conditions (PMID: 19249206, 19758981, 25119904), which suggests that this may be a clinically significant amino acid residue. 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) performed at Invitae indicates that this missense variant is expected to disrupt ETFDH protein function. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 12030). This missense change has been observed in individual(s) with multiple acyl-CoA dehydrogenase deficiency (PMID: 19249206). In at least one individual the data is consistent with being in trans (on the opposite chromosome) from a pathogenic variant. This variant is present in population databases (rs121964956, gnomAD 0.01%). This sequence change replaces leucine, which is neutral and non-polar, with histidine, which is basic and polar, at codon 127 of the ETFDH protein (p.Leu127His).
