Genes affected
FECH (HGNC:3647): (ferrochelatase) The protein encoded by this gene is localized to the mitochondrion, where it catalyzes the insertion of the ferrous form of iron into protoporphyrin IX in the heme synthesis pathway. Mutations in this gene are associated with erythropoietic protoporphyria. Two transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been found for this gene. A pseudogene of this gene is found on chromosome 3.[provided by RefSeq, May 2010]

ACMG classification

Classification was made for transcript

Our verdict: Likely_pathogenic. The variant received 7 ACMG points.

PVS1
Splicing +-2 bp (donor or acceptor) variant, product NOT destroyed by NMD, known LOF gene, truncates exone, which is 0.12971698 fraction of the gene. No cryptic splice site detected. Exon removal is inframe change.
PM2
Very rare variant in population databases, with high coverage;
PP5
Variant 18-57554259-C-T is Pathogenic according to our data. Variant chr18-57554259-C-T is described in ClinVar as Pathogenic. ClinVar VariationId is 552.Status of the report is no_assertion_criteria_provided, 0 stars.
