Genes affected

MMACHC (HGNC:24525): (metabolism of cobalamin associated C) The exact function of the protein encoded by this gene is not known, however, its C-terminal region shows similarity to TonB, a bacterial protein involved in energy transduction for cobalamin (vitamin B12) uptake. Hence, it is postulated that this protein may have a role in the binding and intracellular trafficking of cobalamin. Mutations in this gene are associated with methylmalonic aciduria and homocystinuria type cblC. [provided by RefSeq, Oct 2009]

Labcorp Genetics (formerly Invitae), Labcorp

Significance:Pathogenic

Review Status:criteria provided, single submitter

Collection Method:clinical testing

This sequence change creates a premature translational stop signal (p.Trp140*) in the MMACHC gene. While this is not anticipated to result in nonsense mediated decay, it is expected to disrupt the last 143 amino acid(s) of the MMACHC protein. This variant is present in population databases (rs796051996, gnomAD 0.007%). This premature translational stop signal has been observed in individuals with methylmalonic aciduria and homocystinuria (PMID: 16311595). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 203827). This variant disrupts a region of the MMACHC protein in which other variant(s) (p.Trp203*) have been determined to be pathogenic (PMID: 16311595, 23954310, 25772322). This suggests that this is a clinically significant region of the protein, and that variants that disrupt it are likely to be disease-causing. For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic.

Variant summary: MMACHC c.420G>A (p.Trp140X) results in a premature termination codon, predicted to cause a truncation of the encoded protein or absence of the protein due to nonsense mediated decay, which are commonly known mechanisms for disease. Truncations downstream of this position have been classified as pathogenic by our laboratory. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 4e-06 in 249328 control chromosomes. c.420G>A has been reported in the literature in individuals affected with Cobalamin C Disease (Methylmalonic Aciduria With Homocystinuria) and subsequently cited by others (example Lerner-Ellis_2006, Lerner-Ellis_2009, Froese_2010). To our knowledge, no experimental evidence demonstrating an impact on protein function has been reported. One clinical diagnostic laboratory has submitted clinical-significance assessments for this variant to ClinVar after 2014 without evidence for independent evaluation and classified the variant as pathogenic. Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as pathogenic.
