Genes affected
ETFDH (HGNC:3483): (electron transfer flavoprotein dehydrogenase) This gene encodes a component of the electron-transfer system in mitochondria and is essential for electron transfer from a number of mitochondrial flavin-containing dehydrogenases to the main respiratory chain. Mutations in this gene are associated with glutaric acidemia. Alternatively spliced transcript variants that encode distinct isoforms have been observed. [provided by RefSeq, Aug 2013]

Based on the classification scheme VCGS_Germline_v1.1.1, this variant is classified as 5-Pathogenic. Following criteria are met: 0102 - Loss-of-function is a known mechanism of disease for this gene. (N) 0106 - This gene is known to be associated with autosomal recessive disease. (N) 0202 - Variant is predicted to cause nonsense-mediated decay (NMD) and loss of protein but is located in an exon that may undergo alternative splicing. This variant is in exon 2 of 13 in the ETFDH gene. (P) 0251 - Variant is heterozygous. (N) 0304 - Variant is present in gnomAD v2 <0.01 for a recessive condition (20 Heterozygotes, 0 Homozygotes). (P) 0702 - Comparable variants have strong previous evidence for pathogenicity. Multiple (>5) NMD-predicted variants are present along the ETFDH gene (Decipher, ClinVar). (P) 0801 - Strong previous evidence of pathogenicity in unrelated individuals. This variant has been reported in multiple individuals with multiple acyl-CoA dehydrogenase deficiency (PMIDs: 12359134; 12815589; 17584774; 28468868). (P) 0905 - No segregation evidence has been identified for this variant in the literature. (N) 1208 - Inheritance information for this variant is not currently available.

This sequence change creates a premature translational stop signal (p.Ala18Cysfs*5) in the ETFDH gene. It is expected to result in an absent or disrupted protein product. Loss-of-function variants in ETFDH are known to be pathogenic (PMID: 16510302, 23785301). This variant is present in population databases (rs773961946, gnomAD 0.01%). This premature translational stop signal has been observed in individual(s) with ETFDH-related conditions (PMID: 12359134, 12815589, 17584774). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 195222). For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. -

Review Status: no assertion criteria provided
Collection Method: clinical testing

The ETFDH c.51dupT variant is predicted to result in a frameshift and premature protein termination (p.Ala18Cysfs*5). This variant has previously been reported along with a second causative variant in multiple glutaric acidemia type II patients. The ETF:QO protein was reported to be undetectable in fibroblasts from several of these patients (Goodman et al. 2002, PubMed ID: 12359134; Olsen et al. 2003. PubMed ID: 12815589; Olsen et al. 2007. PubMed ID: 17584774). This variant is reported in 0.014% of alleles in individuals of European (Non-Finnish) descent in gnomAD. Frameshift variants in ETFDH are expected to be pathogenic. Taken together, this variant is interpreted as pathogenic. -
