Variant summary

Our verdict is Pathogenic. Variant got 18 ACMG points: 18P and 0B. PVS1 PM2 PP5_Very_Strong

The NM_000143.4(FH):​c.237dupT​(p.Lys80fs) variant causes a frameshift change involving the alteration of a non-conserved nucleotide. The variant was absent in control chromosomes in GnomAD project. Variant has been reported in ClinVar as Pathogenic (★★). Synonymous variant affecting the same amino acid position (i.e. F79F) has been classified as Likely benign. Variant results in nonsense mediated mRNA decay.

Genes affected

FH (HGNC:3700): (fumarate hydratase) The protein encoded by this gene is an enzymatic component of the tricarboxylic acid (TCA) cycle, or Krebs cycle, and catalyzes the formation of L-malate from fumarate. It exists in both a cytosolic form and an N-terminal extended form, differing only in the translation start site used. The N-terminal extended form is targeted to the mitochondrion, where the removal of the extension generates the same form as in the cytoplasm. It is similar to some thermostable class II fumarases and functions as a homotetramer. Mutations in this gene can cause fumarase deficiency and lead to progressive encephalopathy.

ACMG classification

Verdict is Pathogenic. Variant got 18 ACMG points.

• PVS1: Loss of function variant, product undergoes nonsense mediated mRNA decay. LoF is a known mechanism of disease.
• PM2: Very rare variant in population databases, with high coverage
• PP5: Variant 1-241517211-T-TA is Pathogenic according to our data. Variant chr1-241517211-T-TA is described in ClinVar as [Pathogenic]. Clinvar id is 480830.Status of the report is criteria_provided_multiple_submitters_no_conflicts, 2 stars.

Significance: Pathogenic

Review Status: criteria provided, single submitter

Collection Method: clinical testing

This sequence change creates a premature translational stop signal (p.Lys80*) in the FH gene. It is expected to result in an absent or disrupted protein product. Loss-of-function variants in FH are known to be pathogenic (PMID: 11865300, 21398687). This variant is not present in population databases (gnomAD no frequency). This premature translational stop signal has been observed in individual(s) with cutaneous leiomyomata (PMID: 31831373). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 480830). For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. -

Significance: Pathogenic

Review Status: criteria provided, single submitter

Collection Method: clinical testing

The c.237dupT pathogenic mutation, located in coding exon 2 of the FH gene, results from a duplication of T at nucleotide position 237, causing a translational frameshift with a predicted alternate stop codon (p.K80*). This alteration has been observed in at least one individual with a personal and/or family history that is consistent with FH-related disease (Ambry internal data). This variant is considered to be rare based on population cohorts in the Genome Aggregation Database (gnomAD). This alteration is expected to result in loss of function by premature protein truncation or nonsense-mediated mRNA decay. As such, this alteration is interpreted as a disease-causing mutation. -
