Genes affected
MMUT (HGNC:7526): (methylmalonyl-CoA mutase) This gene encodes the mitochondrial enzyme methylmalonyl Coenzyme A mutase. In humans, the product of this gene is a vitamin B12-dependent enzyme which catalyzes the isomerization of methylmalonyl-CoA to succinyl-CoA, while in other species this enzyme may have different functions. Mutations in this gene may lead to various types of methylmalonic aciduria. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]

This sequence change in MMUT is a nonsense variant predicted to cause a premature stop codon, p.(Arg31*), in biologically relevant exon 1/13 located within a region predicted to escape nonsense-mediated decay (PMID: 27618451). It will likely lead to truncation of a functionally important region in a gene where loss of function is an established disease mechanism (PMID: 20301409). The highest population minor allele frequency in the population database gnomAD v4.1 is 0.005% (4/74,816 alleles) in the African/African American population, consistent with recessive disease. This variant has been detected in multiple individuals with methylmalonic aciduria in the homozygous state and compound heterozygous with a second pathogenic variant. Individuals with this variant demonstrate mainly complete but also partial methylmalonyl-CoA mutase deficiency (mut0 and mut- enzymatic subtypes; PMID: 16281286, 27167370, 33820958, 34668645). Based on the classification scheme RMH Modified ACMG/AMP Guidelines v1.6.1, this variant is classified as PATHOGENIC. Following criteria are met: PVS1_Strong, PM3_VeryStrong, PM2_Supporting. -

This sequence change creates a premature translational stop signal (p.Arg31*) in the MUT gene. It is expected to result in an absent or disrupted protein product. Loss-of-function variants in MUT are known to be pathogenic (PMID: 15781192). This variant is present in population databases (rs398123278, gnomAD 0.008%). This premature translational stop signal has been observed in individual(s) with methylmalonic acidemia due to methylmalonyl-CoA mutase deficiency (PMID: 16281286, 16435223, 17410422). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 92688). For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. -

Variant summary: MUT c.91C>T (p.Arg31X) results in a premature termination codon, predicted to cause a truncation of the encoded protein or absence of the protein due to nonsense mediated decay, which are commonly known mechanisms for disease. Truncations downstream of this position have been classified as pathogenic by our laboratory (e.g., p.Gly284X and p.Arg467X). The variant allele was found at a frequency of 1.8e-05 in 276662 control chromosomes. This frequency is not higher than expected for a pathogenic variant in MUT causing Methylmalonic Acidemia (1.8e-05 vs 0.0024), allowing no conclusion about variant significance. c.91C>T has been reported in the literature in multiple individuals affected with Methylmalonic Acidemia as both a homozygous and compound heterozygous allele. These data indicate that the variant is very likely to be associated with disease. One publication reports experimental evidence showing a significant reduction in the propionate incorporation compared to controls (Worgan_2006), suggesting that the methylmalonyl-CoA mutase enzyme is impaired or absent. Two clinical diagnostic laboratories have submitted clinical-significance assessments for this variant to ClinVar after 2014 and both classified the variant as pathogenic. Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as pathogenic. -
