Genes affected
FH (HGNC:3700): (fumarate hydratase) The protein encoded by this gene is an enzymatic component of the tricarboxylic acid (TCA) cycle, or Krebs cycle, and catalyzes the formation of L-malate from fumarate. It exists in both a cytosolic form and an N-terminal extended form, differing only in the translation start site used. The N-terminal extended form is targeted to the mitochondrion, where the removal of the extension generates the same form as in the cytoplasm. It is similar to some thermostable class II fumarases and functions as a homotetramer. Mutations in this gene can cause fumarase deficiency and lead to progressive encephalopathy.

Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingGeneDxOct 15, 2019In silico analysis, which includes protein predictors and evolutionary conservation, supports a deleterious effect; This variant is associated with the following publications: (PMID: 25004247, 24334767, 28873162) -
Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingInvitaeOct 30, 2022This sequence change replaces asparagine, which is neutral and polar, with serine, which is neutral and polar, at codon 329 of the FH protein (p.Asn329Ser). This variant is present in population databases (rs768483509, gnomAD 0.01%). This missense change has been observed in individual(s) with head and neck paragangliomas (PMID: 21520333, 24334767, 25004247). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 405919). 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 FH protein function. 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. -

Hereditary cancer-predisposing syndrome Uncertain:1
Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingAmbry GeneticsJun 10, 2023The p.N329S variant (also known as c.986A>G), located in coding exon 7 of the FH gene, results from an A to G substitution at nucleotide position 986. The asparagine at codon 329 is replaced by serine, an amino acid with highly similar properties. This alteration has been reported in a male patient with a head and neck PGL at 70-years-old from a cohort of 598 patients with PCC/PGL without mutations in known PCC/PGL susceptibility genes (Castro-Vega LJ et al. Hum. Mol. Genet. 2014 May;23:2440-6). This amino acid position is highly conserved in available vertebrate species. In addition, the in silico prediction for this alteration is inconclusive. Since supporting evidence is limited at this time, the clinical significance of this alteration remains unclear. -
FH-related disorder Uncertain:1
Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingPreventionGenetics, part of Exact SciencesMar 02, 2023The FH c.986A>G variant is predicted to result in the amino acid substitution p.Asn329Ser. This variant was reported in an individual with head and neck paraganglioma (Table 2, Castro-Vega et al. 2014. PubMed ID: 24334767; Table 1, Clark et al. 2014. PubMed ID: 25004247). This variant is reported in 5 of ~283,000 alleles in gnomAD (http://gnomad.broadinstitute.org/variant/1-241667464-T-C) and is interpreted as uncertain significance in ClinVar (https://preview.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/clinvar/variation/405919/). -
