Genes affected
MAT1A (HGNC:6903): (methionine adenosyltransferase 1A) This gene catalyzes a two-step reaction that involves the transfer of the adenosyl moiety of ATP to methionine to form S-adenosylmethionine and tripolyphosphate, which is subsequently cleaved to PPi and Pi. S-adenosylmethionine is the source of methyl groups for most biological methylations. The encoded protein is found as a homotetramer (MAT I) or a homodimer (MAT III) whereas a third form, MAT II (gamma), is encoded by the MAT2A gene. Mutations in this gene are associated with methionine adenosyltransferase deficiency. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]

The MAT1A c.745C>T variant is predicted to result in the amino acid substitution p.Arg249Trp. This variant has been reported in the heterozygous state in an individual with methionine adenosyltransferase deficiency (Table 1, Chien et al. 2005. PubMed ID: 15935930). This variant is reported in 0.023% of alleles in individuals of South Asian descent in gnomAD. An in vitro experimental study suggests this variant reduces methionine adenosyltransferase activity to 20% of wildtype activity (Figure 2, Fernández-Irigoyen et al. 2010. PubMed ID: 20675163). An alternate nucleotide substitution affecting the same amino acid (p.Arg249Gln) has been reported in multiple individuals with methionine adenosyltransferase deficiency (Table 1, Kim et al. 2016. PubMed ID: 26933843). Although we suspect that the c.745C>T (p.Arg249Trp) variant may be pathogenic, at this time, the clinical significance of this variant is uncertain due to the absence of conclusive functional and genetic evidence. -

This variant has been reported as heterozygous in an individual affected with hypermethioninemia (PMID: 15935930). 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. Structural studies have shown that this variant resides in the dimer interface of the protein. Variants localized in this region or in the substrate binding site have been associated with the autosomal dominant form of disease due to their disruption of the dimerization of the protein or substrate binding, whereas autosomal recessive variants are located elsewhere in the protein (PMID: 23425511, 26933843, 28748147). Experimental studies have shown that this missense change causes a reduction in MAT enzymatic activity to approximately 20% of the wild-type level (PMID: 20675163). This variant is present in population databases (rs779094715, ExAC 0.04%). This sequence change replaces arginine with tryptophan at codon 249 of the MAT1A protein (p.Arg249Trp). The arginine residue is highly conserved and there is a moderate physicochemical difference between arginine and tryptophan. -
