Genes affected
ECHS1 (HGNC:3151): (enoyl-CoA hydratase, short chain 1) The protein encoded by this gene functions in the second step of the mitochondrial fatty acid beta-oxidation pathway. It catalyzes the hydration of 2-trans-enoyl-coenzyme A (CoA) intermediates to L-3-hydroxyacyl-CoAs. The gene product is a member of the hydratase/isomerase superfamily. It localizes to the mitochondrial matrix. Transcript variants utilizing alternative transcription initiation sites have been described in the literature. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]

Significance:Likely pathogenic
Review Status:criteria provided, single submitter
Collection Method:clinical testing

In summary, the currently available evidence indicates that the variant is pathogenic, but additional data are needed to prove that conclusively. Therefore, this variant has been classified as Likely Pathogenic. This variant disrupts the p.Arg54 amino acid residue in ECHS1. Other variant(s) that disrupt this residue have been determined to be pathogenic (PMID: 26000322, 32013919). This suggests that this residue is clinically significant, and that variants that disrupt this residue are likely to be disease-causing. 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 ECHS1 protein function. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 369670). This missense change has been observed in individual(s) with clinical features of mitochondrial short-chain enoyl-CoA hydratase 1 deficiency (PMID: 26938784; Invitae). In at least one individual the data is consistent with being in trans (on the opposite chromosome) from a pathogenic variant. This variant is present in population databases (rs758723288, gnomAD 0.004%). This sequence change replaces arginine, which is basic and polar, with cysteine, which is neutral and slightly polar, at codon 54 of the ECHS1 protein (p.Arg54Cys). -

Significance:Likely pathogenic
Review Status:criteria provided, single submitter
Collection Method:clinical testing

This homozygous variant is predicted to create a change of an arginine to a cysteine at position 954, NP_004083.3(ECHS1): p.(Arg54Cys). The arginine at this position is highly conserved. Grantham assessment is likely deleterious due to conservation and amino acid properties. In-silico software predicts this substitution to be deleterious. This variant is novel; however, another variant which results in the same amino acid being substituted has been reported as pathogenic (Haack et al 2015). This homozygous variant was also identified in another affected sibling in this family. Urine testing identified raised levels of 2,3-dihydroxy-1-methylbutyric acid and S-(2-carboxypropyl)cysteine, consistent with the diagnosis of ECHS1 deficiency. -

The ECHS1 c.160C>T variant is predicted to result in the amino acid substitution p.Arg54Cys. This variant has been reported in the homozygous state in an individual with mitochondrial short-chain enoyl-CoA hydratase 1 deficiency (Table S1, Stark et al. 2016. PubMed ID: 26938784; Table S1, Stark et al. 2017. PubMed ID: 28832562; Table S1, Dillon et al. 2018. PubMed ID: 29453417). This variant is reported in 4 of ~281,000 alleles in gnomAD. An alternate nucleotide change affecting the same amino acid (p.Arg54His) has also been reported in the compound heterozygous state in four unrelated individuals with mitochondrial short-chain enoyl-CoA hydratase 1 deficiency (Table 1, Families F4, F8, and F9, Haack et al. 2015. PubMed ID: 26000322; Table 1, Yang et al. 2020. PubMed ID: 32013919 ). The c.160C>T (p.Arg54Cys) variant is interpreted as likely pathogenic. -
