Variant summary
Our verdict is Pathogenic. The variant received 10 ACMG points: 10P and 0B. PM2PM5PP2PP3_StrongPP5
The NM_000143.4(FH):c.1301G>A(p.Cys434Tyr) variant causes a missense change. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 0.00000661 in 151,328 control chromosomes in the GnomAD database, with no homozygous occurrence. In-silico tool predicts a pathogenic outcome for this variant. Variant has been reported in ClinVar as Conflicting classifications of pathogenicity (no stars). Another variant affecting the same amino acid position, but resulting in a different missense (i.e. C434R) has been classified as Likely pathogenic.

This sequence change replaces cysteine, which is neutral and slightly polar, with tyrosine, which is neutral and polar, at codon 434 of the FH protein (p.Cys434Tyr). This variant is not present in population databases (gnomAD no frequency). This missense change has been observed in individuals with hereditary leiomyomatosis and renal cell cancer (HLRCC) (PMID: 25004247; internal data). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 92453). Invitae Evidence Modeling of protein sequence and biophysical properties (such as structural, functional, and spatial information, amino acid conservation, physicochemical variation, residue mobility, and thermodynamic stability) indicates that this missense variant is expected to disrupt FH protein function with a positive predictive value of 95%. Experimental studies have shown that this missense change affects FH function (PMID: 25004247). For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic.
Published functional studies suggest a damaging effect: increased intracellular fumarate levels compared to wild-type (PMID: 25004247); In silico analysis supports that this missense variant has a deleterious effect on protein structure/function; Not observed at significant frequency in large population cohorts (gnomAD); This variant is associated with the following publications: (PMID: 26839173, 23757202, 25004247, 35821608, 33848143, 36777509, 36773955)
Hereditary leiomyomatosis and renal cell cancer Pathogenic:1
This variant is considered likely pathogenic. This variant has been reported in multiple individuals with clinical features of gene-specific disease [PMID: 25004247]. Functional studies indicate this variant impacts protein function [PMID: 25004247]. This variant is expected to disrupt protein structure [Myriad internal data].
Hereditary cancer-predisposing syndrome Pathogenic:1
The p.C434Y pathogenic mutation (also known as c.1301G>A), located in coding exon 9 of the FH gene, results from a G to A substitution at nucleotide position 1301. The cysteine at codon 434 is replaced by tyrosine, an amino acid with highly dissimilar properties. This alteration was identified in a 6-year-old boy who presented with pheochromocytoma and further in vitro analyses showed that this alteration is catalytically inactive (Clark GR et al. J. Clin. Endocrinol. Metab. 2014 Oct; 99(10):E2046-50). This alteration has been identified in multiple individuals with FH-related features, including cutaneous and uterine leiomyomas (Ambry internal data). This variant was not reported in population-based cohorts in the Genome Aggregation Database (gnomAD). This amino acid position is highly conserved in available vertebrate species. In addition, this alteration is predicted to be deleterious by in silico analysis. Based on the majority of available evidence to date, this variant is likely to be pathogenic.
