Variant summary

Our verdict is Uncertain significance. The variant received 3 ACMG points: 3P and 0B. PS4_ModeratePP3

This summary comes from the ClinGen Evidence Repository: The m.9804G>A (p.A200T) variant in MT-CO3 has been reported in seven unrelated individuals with primary mitochondrial disease (PS4_moderate; PMIDs: 8240356, 17895983, 11339587, 11579587, 30831606). Six cases had Leber Hereditary Optic Neuropathy (LHON; PMIDs: 8240356, 11339587, 11579587, 30831606) and the variant was reported to be homoplasmic in four, heteroplasmic in one (level not provided), and the level was not provided in another. Limited clinical details were available from the seventh case but this child was described as having encephalopathy and the variant present at homoplasmy (PMID:17895983). There were no reported de novo occurrences and there were no reports of the variant segregating with clinical manifestations in a family. This variant is present in population databases and is seen in individuals from several different haplogroups (MITOMAP: 0.296%, 183/61,883; gnomAD v3.1.2: 0.363%, 205/56,420 homoplasmic occurrences in addition to 15 heteroplasmic occurrences; Helix: 0.472%, 926/195,893 homoplasmic occurrences in addition to 30 heteroplasmic occurrences).The computational predictor APOGEE gives a consensus rating of pathogenic with a score of 0.866 (Min=0, Max=1), which predicts a damaging effect on gene function (PP3). In summary, this variant meets criteria to be classified as uncertain significance for primary mitochondrial disease inherited in a mitochondrial manner. This classification was approved by the NICHD/NINDS U24 ClinGen Mitochondrial Disease Variant Curation Expert Panel on September 26, 2023. Mitochondrial DNA-specific ACMG/AMP criteria applied (PMID:32906214): PS4_moderate, PP3. LINK:https://erepo.genome.network/evrepo/ui/classification/CA340930/MONDO:0044970/015

The m.9804G>A variant (rs200613617) has been reported as a primary pathogenic variant involved in Leber's hereditary optic neuropathy (LOHN; Johns 1993, Dogulu 2001, Savontaus 1995), and as a secondary variant (Matsumoto 1999). Initial studies identified the variant in 4 independent families, while noting its absence from healthy controls (Johns 1993, Dogulu 2001). However, in one family, the m.9804G>A variant was present in 3 asymptomatic family members (Dogulu 2001). This variant has also been previously observed by our laboratory in two patients, one with optic atrophy and one with chronic myoclonic disorder, neither of whom carried other significant variant in the mitochondrial genome or in 108 nuclear-encoded genes with mitochondrial function. This variant is listed in Mitomap with an overall frequency of 0.28%, and is found in the H6c haplogroup with a frequency of 95%. No functional studies have been conducted to determine the impact of the m.9804G>A variant on complex IV function. While it is possible that m.9804G>A is the primary pathogenic variant in this patient, the frequency in the H6c haplogroup suggests that it is unlikely to be pathogenic; however, due to conflicting evidence in the literature, we cannot classify this variant with certainty. -
