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.

This sequence change affects the initiator methionine of the FH mRNA. The next in-frame methionine is located at codon 44. FH has two initiator codons, p.Met1 and p.Met44, which result in two different functional isoforms that localize to the mitochondria and cytosol, respectively (PMID: 21929734, 27037871). Loss-of-function variants in FH are known to be pathogenic (PMID: 11865300, 21398687). Variants affecting the mitochondrial isoform confer risk for fumarate hydratase deficiency, while variants that affect the cytosolic isoform confer risk for FH tumor predisposition syndrome. The frequency data for this variant in the population databases is considered unreliable, as metrics indicate poor data quality at this position in the gnomAD database. This variant has not been reported in the literature in individuals affected with FH-related conditions. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 641546). This variant disrupts the mitochondria-targeting sequence (MTS) of the FH protein, which is important for protein import into the mitochondria (PMID: 27037871). This suggests that disruption of this region is causative of fumarate hydratase deficiency. 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 for autosomal recessive fumarate hydratase deficiency. However, this variant is not likely to confer risk for autosomal dominant FH tumor predisposition syndrome. -

The p.M1? variant (also known as c.1A>T), located in coding exon 1 of the FH gene, results from a A to T substitution at nucleotide position 1. This alters the methionine residue at the initiation codon. Variations that modify the initiation codon (ATG) are expected to result in either loss of translation initiation, N-terminal truncation, or cause a shift in the mRNA reading frame; however, there is an alternate in-frame methionine 44 amino acids from the initiation site. Proteins initiated from the first methionine are targeted to the mitochondrion while proteins initiated from the second methionine are targeted to the cytoplasm due to the lack of the mitochondrial targeting sequence encoded between them (Dik E et al. Traffic, 2016 Jul;17:720-32, Magrane M et al., Database (Oxford) 2011; bar009). Data suggest that it is the cytoplasmic protein that conveys the tumor suppressor function of FH (Yogev O et al. PLoS Biol., 2010 Mar;8:e1000328). This nucleotide position is highly conserved in available vertebrate species. Since supporting evidence is limited at this time, the clinical significance of this alteration remains unclear. -
