Genes affected
ETFA (HGNC:3481): (electron transfer flavoprotein subunit alpha) ETFA participates in catalyzing the initial step of the mitochondrial fatty acid beta-oxidation. It shuttles electrons between primary flavoprotein dehydrogenases and the membrane-bound electron transfer flavoprotein ubiquinone oxidoreductase. Defects in electron-transfer-flavoprotein have been implicated in type II glutaricaciduria in which multiple acyl-CoA dehydrogenase deficiencies result in large excretion of glutaric, lactic, ethylmalonic, butyric, isobutyric, 2-methyl-butyric, and isovaleric acids. Two transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been found for this gene. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]

Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingInvitaeFeb 08, 2022This sequence change affects the initiator methionine of the ETFA mRNA. The next in-frame methionine is located at codon 261. The frequency data for this variant in the population databases is considered unreliable, as metrics indicate poor data quality at this position in the gnomAD database. Disruption of the initiator codon has been observed in individual(s) with glutaric aciduria type 2 (PMID: 33768790). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 167039). This variant disrupts a region of the ETFA protein in which other variant(s) (p.Arg122Lys) have been observed in individuals with ETFA-related conditions (PMID: 16510302). This suggests that this is a clinically significant region of the protein, and that variants that disrupt it 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. -
