Genes affected

MTHFR (HGNC:7436): (methylenetetrahydrofolate reductase) The protein encoded by this gene catalyzes the conversion of 5,10-methylenetetrahydrofolate to 5-methyltetrahydrofolate, a co-substrate for homocysteine remethylation to methionine. Genetic variation in this gene influences susceptibility to occlusive vascular disease, neural tube defects, colon cancer and acute leukemia, and mutations in this gene are associated with methylenetetrahydrofolate reductase deficiency.[provided by RefSeq, Oct 2009]

ACMG classification

Verdict is Uncertain_significance. Variant got 5 ACMG points.

• PM2: Very rare variant in population databases, with high coverage
• PM4: Nonframeshift variant in NON repetitive region in NM_005957.5. Strenght limited to Supporting due to length of the change: 1aa.
• PP5: Variant 1-11796306-GTGA-G is Pathogenic according to our data. Variant chr1-11796306-GTGA-G is described in ClinVar as [Likely_pathogenic]. Clinvar id is 187880.Status of the report is criteria_provided_single_submitter, 1 stars.

Homocystinuria due to methylene tetrahydrofolate reductase deficiency Pathogenic:2

Likely pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitter	clinical testing	Women's Health and Genetics/Laboratory Corporation of America, LabCorp	Jun 04, 2024	Variant summary: MTHFR c.677_679delTCA (p.Ile226del) results in an in-frame deletion that is predicted to remove one amino acid from the encoded protein. The variant was absent in 251488 control chromosomes. c.677_679delTCA has been reported in the literature in at-least one individual affected with Homocystinuria Due To Methylene Tetrahydrofolate Reductase Deficiency (Burda_2015). These data do not allow any conclusion about variant significance. At least one publication reports experimental evidence evaluating an impact on protein function. The most pronounced variant effect results in 1.7% of normal activity in the cell line from a patient carrying both the current variant and a pathogenic splice variant resulting in a null allele (Burda_2015). The following publication has been ascertained in the context of this evaluation (PMID: 25736335). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 187880). Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as likely pathogenic. -
