Variant summary

Our verdict is Likely pathogenic. Variant got 9 ACMG points: 9P and 0B. PM1 PM2 PP3_Strong PP5

The ENST00000366560.4(FH):​c.782G>T​(p.Arg261Ile) variant causes a missense change involving the alteration of a conserved nucleotide. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 0.00000137 in 1,461,594 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). Synonymous variant affecting the same amino acid position (i.e. R261R) has been classified as Likely benign.

Genes affected

FH (HGNC:3700): (fumarate hydratase) The protein encoded by this gene is an enzymatic component of the tricarboxylic acid (TCA) cycle, or Krebs cycle, and catalyzes the formation of L-malate from fumarate. It exists in both a cytosolic form and an N-terminal extended form, differing only in the translation start site used. The N-terminal extended form is targeted to the mitochondrion, where the removal of the extension generates the same form as in the cytoplasm. It is similar to some thermostable class II fumarases and functions as a homotetramer. Mutations in this gene can cause fumarase deficiency and lead to progressive encephalopathy.

ACMG classification

Verdict is Likely_pathogenic. Variant got 9 ACMG points.

• PM1: In a hotspot region, there are 2 aminoacids with missense pathogenic changes in the window of +-8 aminoacids around while only 3 benign, 15 uncertain in ENST00000366560.4
• PM2: Very rare variant in population databases, with high coverage
• PP3: MetaRNN computational evidence supports a deleterious effect, 0.992
• PP5: Variant 1-241506125-C-A is Pathogenic according to our data. Variant chr1-241506125-C-A is described in ClinVar as [Conflicting_classifications_of_pathogenicity]. Clinvar id is 485572.We mark this variant Likely_pathogenic, oryginal submissions are: {Pathogenic=1, Uncertain_significance=2}.

Hereditary cancer-predisposing syndrome Uncertain:2

Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitter	clinical testing	Ambry Genetics	Jan 10, 2023	The p.R261I variant (also known as c.782G>T), located in coding exon 6 of the FH gene, results from a G to T substitution at nucleotide position 782. The arginine at codon 261 is replaced by isoleucine, an amino acid with similar properties. This alteration had been identified with a second pathogenic variant in a suspected fumarate hydratase deficiency patient (Ezgu F et al. Gene 2013 Jul;524(2):403-6). This amino acid position is highly conserved in available vertebrate species. In addition, this alteration is predicted to be deleterious by in silico analysis. Since supporting evidence is limited at this time, the clinical significance of this alteration remains unclear. -

This sequence change replaces arginine, which is basic and polar, with isoleucine, which is neutral and non-polar, at codon 261 of the FH protein (p.Arg261Ile). This variant is not present in population databases (gnomAD no frequency). This missense change has been observed in individual(s) with fumarate hydratase deficiency (PMID: 23612258). 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: 485572). 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) performed at Invitae indicates that this missense variant is expected to disrupt FH protein function with a positive predictive value of 95%. For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. -
