Collection Method:clinical testing

Same nucleotide change resulting in same amino acid change has been previously reported as pathogenic/likely pathogenic with strong evidence (ClinVar ID: VCV000520993, PMID:29040572). The variant is observed at an extremely low frequency in the gnomAD v2.1.1 dataset (total allele frequency: 0.0000159). A missense variant is a common mechanism associated with Auditory neuropathy and optic atrophy. Therefore, this variant is classified as likely pathogenic according to the recommendation of ACMG/AMP guideline. -

FDXR-related disorder Uncertain:1

PreventionGenetics, part of Exact Sciences
Significance:Uncertain significance
Review Status:no assertion criteria provided
Collection Method:clinical testing

The FDXR c.221C>T variant is predicted to result in the amino acid substitution p.Pro74Leu. This variant has been reported in the heterozygous state, along with the p.Arg386Trp variant, in an individual with mitochondriopathy and optic atrophy (Table 1, Peng et al. 2017. PubMed ID: 29040572). This variant is reported in 0.012% of alleles in individuals of Latino descent in gnomAD. Although we suspect that this variant may be pathogenic, at this time, the clinical significance of this variant is uncertain due to the absence of conclusive functional and genetic evidence. -
