Variant summary

Our verdict is Pathogenic. The variant received 15 ACMG points: 15P and 0B. PS3PM1PP3PP5_Very_Strong

The NM_005957.5(MTHFR):​c.155G>A​(p.Arg52Gln) variant causes a missense change involving the alteration of a conserved nucleotide. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 0.000116 in 1,614,072 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 Likely pathogenic (★★). ClinVar reports functional evidence for this variant: "SCV000818575: Experimental studies have shown that this missense change affects MTHFR function (PMID:27743313)." and additional evidence is available in ClinVar. Synonymous variant affecting the same amino acid position (i.e. R52R) has been classified as Likely benign.

Genes affected
MTHFR (HGNC:7436): (methylenetetrahydrofolate reductase) The protein encoded by this gene catalyzes the conversion of 5,10-methylenetetrahydrofolate to 5-methyltetrahydrofolate, a co-substrate for homocysteine remethylation to methionine. Genetic variation in this gene influences susceptibility to occlusive vascular disease, neural tube defects, colon cancer and acute leukemia, and mutations in this gene are associated with methylenetetrahydrofolate reductase deficiency.[provided by RefSeq, Oct 2009]
MTHFR Gene-Disease associations (from GenCC):
  • homocystinuria due to methylene tetrahydrofolate reductase deficiency

ACMG classification

Classification was made for transcript

Our verdict: Pathogenic. The variant received 15 ACMG points.

PS3
PS3 evidence extracted from ClinVar submissions: SCV000818575: Experimental studies have shown that this missense change affects MTHFR function (PMID: 27743313).; SCV001423742: Expression studies in both patient and non-patient fibroblasts demonstrated reduced MTHFR activity compared to wildtype (Goyette et al. 1995; Huemer et al. 2016; Burda et al. 2017).; SCV002557134: "This variant has moderate functional evidence supporting abnormal protein function. The variant results in a modest reduction in enzyme activity compared to wild type, as previously demonstrated by in vitro functional studies" (PMID: 27743313).; SCV002513634: Published functional studies demonstrate reduced enzymatic activity, thermo-stable activity, and NADPH binding affinity in patient cells (PMID: 27743313, 7726158, 25736335)
PM1
In a hotspot region, there are 3 aminoacids with missense pathogenic changes in the window of +-8 aminoacids around while only 1 benign, 5 uncertain in NM_005957.5
PP3
