Genes affected

ACSF3 (HGNC:27288): (acyl-CoA synthetase family member 3) This gene encodes a member of the acyl-CoA synthetase family of enzymes that activate fatty acids by catalyzing the formation of a thioester linkage between fatty acids and coenzyme A. The encoded protein is localized to mitochondria, has high specificity for malonate and methylmalonate and possesses malonyl-CoA synthetase activity. Mutations in this gene are a cause of combined malonic and methylmalonic aciduria. Alternatively spliced transcript variants have been observed for this gene. [provided by RefSeq, Sep 2013]

Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitter	clinical testing	ARUP Laboratories, Molecular Genetics and Genomics, ARUP Laboratories	Feb 15, 2019	The ACSF3 c.1411C>T; p.Arg471Trp variant (rs138680796), is reported in the literature in the homozygous state in two individuals affected with combined malonic and methylmalonic aciduria (CMAMMA) (Alfares 2011, Sloan 2011). This variant is found in the Ashkenazi Jewish population with an overall allele frequency of 0.71% (73/10360 alleles) in the Genome Aggregation Database, though at least one affected individual with this variant was of Ashkenazi descent (Alfares 2011). The arginine at codon 471 is moderately conserved and computational analyses (SIFT, PolyPhen-2) predict that this variant is deleterious. Another variant at the same codon (p.Arg471Gln) was also reported in an individual with CMAMMA, though its clinical significance remains uncertain (Sloan 2011). Given the lack of clinical and functional data, the significance of the p.Arg471Trp variant is uncertain at this time. References: Alfares A et al.

Likely pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitter	clinical testing	Women's Health and Genetics/Laboratory Corporation of America, LabCorp	Oct 22, 2021	Variant summary: ACSF3 c.1411C>T (p.Arg471Trp) results in a non-conservative amino acid change located in the AMP-dependent synthetase/ligase domain of 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 0.00032 in 251262 control chromosomes. This frequency is not significantly higher than expected for a pathogenic variant in ACSF3 causing Combined Malonic And Methylmalonic Aciduria (0.00032 vs 0.0058), allowing no conclusion about variant significance. c.1411C>T has been reported in the literature in two individuals in the homozygous state affected with Combined Malonic And Methylmalonic Aciduria, however with benign clinical courses (ie. elevated MA and MMA levels in urine and plasma, without other major clinical features; Alfares_2011, Sloan_2012). In a functional study, fibroblast cell lines from a patient homozygous for the variant displayed elevated MA and MMA in culture media, therefore recapitulating the biochemical outcome observed in the two reported patients (Wehbe_2019). Additionally, the equivalent residue in E. coli was shown to result in the complete loss of fatty acyl-CoA synthetase enzymatic activity (Black_1997). Five clinical diagnostic laboratories have submitted clinical-significance assessments for this variant to ClinVar after 2014 without evidence for independent evaluation. Four labs classified the variant as VUS while one classified the variant as pathogenic. Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as likely pathogenic. -
Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitter	clinical testing	Labcorp Genetics (formerly Invitae), Labcorp	Aug 20, 2018	This sequence change replaces arginine with tryptophan at codon 471 of the ACSF3 protein (p.Arg471Trp). The arginine residue is moderately conserved and there is a moderate physicochemical difference between arginine and tryptophan. This variant is present in population databases (rs138680796, ExAC 0.04%). This variant has been observed in individuals affected with combined malonic and methylmalonic aciduriaÂ¬â€ (PMID: 29858964, 21841779, 21785126). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 31137). Experimental studies have shown that this missense change disrupts ACSF3 protein function in vitro (PMID:Â¬â€ 9030548). In summary, the available evidence is currently insufficient to determine the role of this variant in disease. Therefore, it has been classified as a Variant of Uncertain Significance. -

Likely pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitter	clinical testing	Genetic Services Laboratory, University of Chicago	Mar 08, 2019	DNA sequence analysis of the ACSF3 gene demonstrated a sequence change, c.1411C>T, in exon 9 that results in an amino acid change, p.Arg471Trp. The p.Arg471Trp change affects a moderately conserved amino acid residue located in a domain of the ACSF3 protein that is known to be functional. The p.Arg471Trp substitution appears to be deleterious using several in-silico pathogenicity prediction tools (SIFT, PolyPhen2, CADD, REVEL). This sequence change has been described in the gnomAD database with a low global population frequency of 0.03%, but a relatively high frequency of 0.7% in the Ashkenazi Jewish population (dbSNP rs138680796). The p.Arg471Trp change has been identified in the homozygous state in an Ashkenazi Jewish patient with combined malonic and methylmalonic aciduria but who was clinically asymptomatic at 14 years of age (PMID: 21785126). The patient was initially identified by newborn screening (PMID: 10356133). PMID: 21841779 reported a 66 year old woman who is apparently homozygous for the p.Arg471Trp change who exhibited elevated malonic and methylmalonic acid in plasma and urine. This individual reported incontinence and mild memory issues. Additionally, a different sequence changes affecting the same amino acid residue (p.Arg471Gln) has been described in the compound heterozygous state with a second missense variant a patient with combined malonic and methylmalonic aciduria (PMID: 21841779). Although the p.Arg471Trp change in the homozygous state has not been reported to cause a significant clinical phenotype to date, it has not been reported in compound heterozygous state with a potentially more damaging mutation and therefore the full spectrum of disease associated with the p.Arg471Gln change is not currently known. -

The c.1411C>T (p.R471W) alteration is located in exon 9 (coding exon 7) of the ACSF3 gene. This alteration results from a C to T substitution at nucleotide position 1411, causing the arginine (R) at amino acid position 471 to be replaced by a tryptophan (W). Based on data from gnomAD, the T allele has an overall frequency of 0.029% (82/282622) total alleles studied. The highest observed frequency was 0.705% (73/10360) of Ashkenazi Jewish alleles. This variant has been identified in the homozygous state in individuals with elevated plasma MMA, plasma MA, and/or elevated urine MMA, urine MA, with lack of expected metabolic disease symptoms (Alfares, 2011; Sloan, 2011). Another alteration at the same codon, c.1412G>A (p.R471Q), has been detected in in one individual with hypoglycemia, acidosis, poor weight gain, diarrhea episodes, and biochemical findings consistent with combined malonic and methylmalonic aciduria (Sloan, 2011). This amino acid position is highly conserved in available vertebrate species. This alteration is predicted to be deleterious by in silico analysis. Based on the available evidence, this alteration is classified as likely pathogenic. -
