Genes affected
FECH (HGNC:3647): (ferrochelatase) The protein encoded by this gene is localized to the mitochondrion, where it catalyzes the insertion of the ferrous form of iron into protoporphyrin IX in the heme synthesis pathway. Mutations in this gene are associated with erythropoietic protoporphyria. Two transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been found for this gene. A pseudogene of this gene is found on chromosome 3.[provided by RefSeq, May 2010]

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

Observed with a second FECH variant, often the hypomorphic allele c.315-48T>C (IVS3-48C), in unrelated patients with clinical and biochemical features of erythropoietic protoporphyria in the published literature (PMID: 20105171, 33021473, 10942404, 23364466, 30391163); Published functional studies demonstrate a damaging effect (PMID: 10942404); In silico analysis supports that this missense variant has a deleterious effect on protein structure/function; This variant is associated with the following publications: (PMID: 30391163, 10942404, 20105171, 33021473, 16385445, 23364466, 11039124, 28614581) -

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

This sequence change replaces cysteine, which is neutral and slightly polar, with glycine, which is neutral and non-polar, at codon 411 of the FECH protein (p.Cys411Gly). This variant is present in population databases (rs146899669, gnomAD 0.004%). This missense change has been observed in individual(s) with erythropoietic protoporphyria (PMID: 10942404, 16385445, 20105171, 33021473; Invitae). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 242756). An algorithm developed to predict the effect of missense changes on protein structure and function (PolyPhen-2) suggests that this variant is likely to be disruptive. Experimental studies have shown that this missense change affects FECH function (PMID: 10942404). This variant disrupts the p.Cys411 amino acid residue in FECH. Other variant(s) that disrupt this residue have been observed in individuals with FECH-related conditions (PMID: 23364466, 27704751; Invitae), which suggests that this may be a clinically significant amino acid residue. For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. -
