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.

ACMG classification

Verdict is Pathogenic. Variant got 18 ACMG points.

• PVS1: Loss of function variant, product undergoes nonsense mediated mRNA decay. LoF is a known mechanism of disease.
• PM2: Very rare variant in population databases, with high coverage
• PP5: Variant 1-241502540-AT-A is Pathogenic according to our data. Variant chr1-241502540-AT-A is described in ClinVar as [Pathogenic]. Clinvar id is 572058.Status of the report is criteria_provided_multiple_submitters_no_conflicts, 2 stars.

This sequence change creates a premature translational stop signal (p.Met380*) in the FH gene. It is expected to result in an absent or disrupted protein product. Loss-of-function variants in FH are known to be pathogenic (PMID: 11865300, 21398687). This variant is not present in population databases (gnomAD no frequency). 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: 572058). For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. -

The c.1138delA pathogenic mutation, located in coding exon 8 of the FH gene, results from a deletion of one nucleotide at nucleotide position 1138, causing a translational frameshift with a predicted alternate stop codon (p.M380*). This alteration was identified in a 61-year-old male patient diagnosed with papillary renal cell carcinoma (Huang KL et al. Cell, 2018 Apr;173:355-370.e14). This variant is considered to be rare based on population cohorts in the Genome Aggregation Database (gnomAD). This alteration is expected to result in loss of function by premature protein truncation or nonsense-mediated mRNA decay. As such, this alteration is interpreted as a disease-causing mutation. -
