Genes affected
FMO3 (HGNC:3771): (flavin containing dimethylaniline monoxygenase 3) Flavin-containing monooxygenases (FMO) are an important class of drug-metabolizing enzymes that catalyze the NADPH-dependent oxygenation of various nitrogen-,sulfur-, and phosphorous-containing xenobiotics such as therapeutic drugs, dietary compounds, pesticides, and other foreign compounds. The human FMO gene family is composed of 5 genes and multiple pseudogenes. FMO members have distinct developmental- and tissue-specific expression patterns. The expression of this FMO3 gene, the major FMO expressed in adult liver, can vary up to 20-fold between individuals. This inter-individual variation in FMO3 expression levels is likely to have significant effects on the rate at which xenobiotics are metabolised and, therefore, is of considerable interest to the pharmaceutical industry. This transmembrane protein localizes to the endoplasmic reticulum of many tissues. Alternative splicing of this gene results in multiple transcript variants encoding different isoforms. Mutations in this gene cause the disorder trimethylaminuria (TMAu) which is characterized by the accumulation and excretion of unmetabolized trimethylamine and a distinctive body odor. In healthy individuals, trimethylamine is primarily converted to the non odorous trimethylamine N-oxide.[provided by RefSeq, Jan 2016]

Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingInvitaeJan 30, 2024This sequence change replaces valine, which is neutral and non-polar, with isoleucine, which is neutral and non-polar, at codon 58 of the FMO3 protein (p.Val58Ile). This variant is present in population databases (rs144935285, gnomAD 0.5%). This missense change has been observed in individual(s) with clinical features of trimethylaminuria (PMID: 15618671, 22819296, 28392825, 33831674). This variant is also known as p.Val158Ile, G265A. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 225365). 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) has been performed at Invitae for this missense variant, however the output from this modeling did not meet the statistical confidence thresholds required to predict the impact of this variant on FMO3 protein function. Experimental studies have shown that this missense change affects FMO3 function (PMID: 15618671, 22819296). For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. -
not specified Uncertain:1
Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingWomen's Health and Genetics/Laboratory Corporation of America, LabCorpFeb 13, 2024Variant summary: FMO3 c.172G>A (p.Val58Ile) results in a conservative amino acid change in the encoded protein sequence. Three of five in-silico tools predict a benign effect of the variant on protein function. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 0.00035 in 251230 control chromosomes, predominantly at a frequency of 0.0042 within the East Asian subpopulation in the gnomAD database. This frequency is not significantly higher than estimated for a pathogenic variant in FMO3 causing Trimethylaminuria (0.00035 vs 0.0056), allowing no conclusion about variant significance. c.172G>A has been reported in the literature in individuals affected with Trimethylaminuria (Kim_2017, Shimizu_2021, Shimizu_2012, Kubota_2002). These data do not allow any conclusion about variant significance. At least one publication reports experimental evidence evaluating an impact on protein function indicating changes in protein function (Shimizu_2012, Kubota_2002) . The following publications have been ascertained in the context of this evaluation (PMID: 28392825, 15618671, 33831674, 22819296). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 225365). Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as VUS-possibly pathogenic. -
