Genes affected
HMGCS2 (HGNC:5008): (3-hydroxy-3-methylglutaryl-CoA synthase 2) The protein encoded by this gene belongs to the HMG-CoA synthase family. It is a mitochondrial enzyme that catalyzes the first reaction of ketogenesis, a metabolic pathway that provides lipid-derived energy for various organs during times of carbohydrate deprivation, such as fasting. Mutations in this gene are associated with HMG-CoA synthase deficiency. Alternatively spliced transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been found for this gene.[provided by RefSeq, Oct 2009]

3-hydroxy-3-methylglutaryl-CoA synthase deficiency Pathogenic:2
Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingInvitaeAug 10, 2023ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 9257). This missense change has been observed in individual(s) with HMG-CoA synthase-2 deficiency (PMID: 11228257, 23751782, 25511235, 33045405). 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 (rs137852636, gnomAD 0.1%). This sequence change replaces phenylalanine, which is neutral and non-polar, with leucine, which is neutral and non-polar, at codon 174 of the HMGCS2 protein (p.Phe174Leu). 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 not expected to disrupt HMGCS2 protein function. For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. Experimental studies have shown that this missense change affects HMGCS2 function (PMID: 11228257, 23751782). -
