Genes affected

NDUFAF5 (HGNC:15899): (NADH:ubiquinone oxidoreductase complex assembly factor 5) The NADH-ubiquinone oxidoreductase complex (complex I) of the mitochondrial respiratory chain catalyzes the transfer of electrons from NADH to ubiquinone, and consists of at least 43 subunits. The complex is located in the inner mitochondrial membrane. This gene encodes a mitochondrial protein that is associated with the matrix face of the mitochondrial inner membrane and is required for complex I assembly. A mutation in this gene results in mitochondrial complex I deficiency. Multiple transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been found for this gene. [provided by RefSeq, Oct 2009]

Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitter	clinical testing	Women's Health and Genetics/Laboratory Corporation of America, LabCorp	Feb 24, 2022	Variant summary: NDUFAF5 c.836T>G (p.Met279Arg) results in a non-conservative amino acid change in the encoded protein sequence. Five of five in-silico tools predict a damaging effect of the variant on protein function. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 5.6e-05 in 251314 control chromosomes. This frequency is not significantly higher than expected for a pathogenic variant in NDUFAF5 causing Leigh Syndrome (5.6e-05 vs 0.00056), allowing no conclusion about variant significance. c.836T>G has been reported in the literature as homozygous and compound heterozygous genotypes in multiple well characterized and comprehensively sequenced (by WES) individuals of East Asian ancestry affected with heterogeneous phenotypes of mitochondrial complex 1 assembly gene deficiency such as Leigh Syndrome, neurodevelopmental delay accompanied by unexplained dyspnea, lactic acidosis and Bilateral striatal necrosis (BSN) (example, Farwell_2015, Tong_2018, Simon_2019, Bi_2021). These data indicate that the variant is very likely to be associated with disease. To our knowledge, no experimental evidence demonstrating an impact on protein function has been reported. Two clinical diagnostic laboratories and the OMIM database have submitted clinical-significance assessments for this variant to ClinVar after 2014 without evidence for independent evaluation (Pathogenic/Likely Pathogenic, n=2; VUS, n=1). Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as pathogenic. -

This sequence change replaces methionine, which is neutral and non-polar, with arginine, which is basic and polar, at codon 279 of the NDUFAF5 protein (p.Met279Arg). This variant is present in population databases (rs761389904, gnomAD 0.09%). This missense change has been observed in individuals with mitochondrial complex I deficiency (PMID: 29581464, 30473481, 30581749, 34177781). It has also been observed to segregate with disease in related individuals. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 225036). 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) has been performed at Invitae for this missense variant, however the output from this modeling did not meet the statistical confidence thresholds required to predict the impact of this variant on NDUFAF5 protein function. For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. -
