Genes affected
AUH (HGNC:890): (AU RNA binding methylglutaconyl-CoA hydratase) This gene encodes bifunctional mitochondrial protein that has both RNA-binding and hydratase activities. The encoded protein is a methylglutaconyl-CoA hydratase that catalyzes the hydration of 3-methylglutaconyl-CoA to 3-hydroxy-3-methyl-glutaryl-CoA, a critical step in the leucine degradation pathway. This protein also binds AU-rich elements (AREs) found in the 3' UTRs of rapidly decaying mRNAs including c-fos, c-myc and granulocyte/ macrophage colony stimulating factor. ARE elements are involved in directing RNA to rapid degradation and deadenylation. This protein is localizes to the mitochondrial matrix and the inner mitochondrial membrane and may be involved in mitochondrial protein synthesis. Mutations in this gene are the cause of 3-methylglutaconic aciduria, type I. Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants. [provided by RefSeq, Sep 2015]

3-methylglutaconic aciduria type 1 Uncertain:2
Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingIllumina Laboratory Services, IlluminaOct 15, 2018The AUH c.719C>T (p.Ala240Val) variant is a missense variant that has been reported in one study, in which it is found in a compound heterozygous state with a second frameshift variant in an individual with 3-methylglutaconic aciduria type 1 (MGA1). This individual presented with vomiting, insomnia, persistent crying, self-mutilation, and hepatomegaly and responded well to dietary L-carnitine (Ly et al. 2003). The p.Ala240Val variant was absent from 176 control chromosomes but is reported at a 0.000047 in the European (non-Finnish) population of the Genome Aggregation Database. Functional studies in E. coli showed that the p.Ala240Val variant reduced enzyme activity to 9% of the wildtype protein (Mack et al. 2006), and overexpressing AUH carrying the p.Ala240Val variant in a human bone cell line significantly lowered the 3-MG-CoA hydratase enzyme activity of AUH (Richman et al. 2014). Based on the evidence, the p.Ala240Val variant is classified as a variant of unknown significance but suspicious for pathogenicity for 3-methylglutaconic aciduria type 1. This variant was observed by ICSL as part of a predisposition screen in an ostensibly healthy population. -
Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingInvitaeNov 01, 2022ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 529797). 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. Experimental studies have shown that this missense change affects AUH function (PMID: 16640564, 24598254). 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 AUH protein function. This missense change has been observed in individual(s) with 3-methylglutaconic aciduria type I (PMID: 12655555, 32778825). This variant is present in population databases (rs769894315, gnomAD 0.005%). This sequence change replaces alanine, which is neutral and non-polar, with valine, which is neutral and non-polar, at codon 240 of the AUH protein (p.Ala240Val). -
