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.

Review Status:criteria provided, single submitter

Collection Method:clinical testing

This 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 a head and neck paraganglioma (PMID: 24334767). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 405919). Invitae Evidence Modeling of protein sequence and biophysical properties (such as structural, functional, and spatial information, amino acid conservation, physicochemical variation, residue mobility, and thermodynamic stability) indicates that this missense variant is expected to disrupt FH protein function with a positive predictive value of 95%. 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. -

The FH c.986A>G (p.Asn329Ser) variant has been reported in the published literature in in an individual with head and neck paraganglioma (PMID: 25004247 (2014)). The frequency of this variant in the general population, 0.000023 (3/129026 chromosomes (Genome Aggregation Database, http://gnomad.broadinstitute.org)), is uninformative in the assessment of its pathogenicity. Analysis of this variant using bioinformatics tools for the prediction of the effect of amino acid changes on protein structure and function yielded predictions that this variant is damaging. Based on the available information, we are unable to determine the clinical significance of this variant. -

Significance:Uncertain significance

Review Status:criteria provided, single submitter

Collection Method:clinical testing

The 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 an individual diagnosed with a head and neck paraganglioma (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. Based on the available evidence, the clinical significance of this variant remains unclear. -

Significance:Uncertain significance

Review Status:criteria provided, single submitter

Collection Method:clinical testing

The 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/). -
