Genes affected
MMACHC (HGNC:24525): (metabolism of cobalamin associated C) The exact function of the protein encoded by this gene is not known, however, its C-terminal region shows similarity to TonB, a bacterial protein involved in energy transduction for cobalamin (vitamin B12) uptake. Hence, it is postulated that this protein may have a role in the binding and intracellular trafficking of cobalamin. Mutations in this gene are associated with methylmalonic aciduria and homocystinuria type cblC. [provided by RefSeq, Oct 2009]

Likely pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingWomen's Health and Genetics/Laboratory Corporation of America, LabCorpFeb 20, 2024Variant summary: MMACHC c.617G>A (p.Arg206Gln) results in a conservative amino acid change in the encoded protein sequence. Four of five in-silico tools predict a damaging effect of the variant on protein function. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 0.00017 in 249544 control chromosomes. This frequency is not significantly higher than estimated for a pathogenic variant in MMACHC causing Methylmalonic Acidemia With Homocystinuria (0.00017 vs 0.0032), allowing no conclusion about variant significance. c.617G>A has been reported in the literature in individuals affected with Methylmalonic Acidemia With Homocystinuria (Hu_2018, Wang_2021). Additionally, Arg206Trp has been classified as pathogenic in ClinVar and Arg206Pro has been associated with Methylmalonic aciduria in HGMD. Structural studies suggest that the variant impacts protein stability and ability to bind enzyme cofactors (Froese_2012). The following publications have been ascertained in the context of this evaluation (PMID: 30157807, 34215320, 22642810, 34389282). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 848845). Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as likely pathogenic. -
Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingInvitaeJan 25, 2024This sequence change replaces arginine, which is basic and polar, with glutamine, which is neutral and polar, at codon 206 of the MMACHC protein (p.Arg206Gln). This variant is present in population databases (rs371753672, gnomAD 0.08%). This missense change has been observed in individual(s) with combined methylmalonic aciduria and homocystinuria (PMID: 30157807; Invitae). In at least one individual the data is consistent with being in trans (on the opposite chromosome) from a pathogenic variant. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 848845). 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 MMACHC protein function. Experimental studies have shown that this missense change affects MMACHC function (PMID: 22642810). This variant disrupts the p.Arg206 amino acid residue in MMACHC. Other variant(s) that disrupt this residue have been observed in individuals with MMACHC-related conditions (PMID: 16311595, 20631720), which suggests that this may be a clinically significant amino acid residue. For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. -
