Genes affected
MTHFR (HGNC:7436): (methylenetetrahydrofolate reductase) The protein encoded by this gene catalyzes the conversion of 5,10-methylenetetrahydrofolate to 5-methyltetrahydrofolate, a co-substrate for homocysteine remethylation to methionine. Genetic variation in this gene influences susceptibility to occlusive vascular disease, neural tube defects, colon cancer and acute leukemia, and mutations in this gene are associated with methylenetetrahydrofolate reductase deficiency.[provided by RefSeq, Oct 2009]

ACMG classification

Classification made for transcript

Verdict is Uncertain_significance. Variant got 0 ACMG points.

PM2
Very rare variant in population databases, with high coverage;
BP4
Computational evidence support a benign effect (MetaRNN=0.3261909).
BS1
Variant frequency is greater than expected in population amr. gnomad4 allele frequency = 0.000309 (47/152178) while in subpopulation AMR AF= 0.00308 (47/15272). AF 95% confidence interval is 0.00238. There are 0 homozygotes in gnomad4. There are 30 alleles in male gnomad4 subpopulation. Median coverage is 32. This position pass quality control queck. Existence of Clinvar submissions makes me limit the strength of this signal to Supporting

Homocystinuria due to methylene tetrahydrofolate reductase deficiency Uncertain:1
Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingLabcorp Genetics (formerly Invitae), LabcorpAug 19, 2022This sequence change replaces arginine, which is basic and polar, with glutamine, which is neutral and polar, at codon 68 of the MTHFR protein (p.Arg68Gln). This variant is present in population databases (rs2066472, gnomAD 0.1%). This variant has not been reported in the literature in individuals affected with MTHFR-related conditions. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 1445361). Algorithms developed to predict the effect of missense changes on protein structure and function are either unavailable or do not agree on the potential impact of this missense change (SIFT: "Deleterious"; PolyPhen-2: "Probably Damaging"; Align-GVGD: "Class C0"). This variant disrupts the p.Arg68 amino acid residue in MTHFR. Other variant(s) that disrupt this residue have been determined to be pathogenic (PMID: 25736335, 27743313, 29246599). This suggests that this residue is clinically significant, and that variants that disrupt this residue are likely to be disease-causing. 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. -
