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.

Significance:Pathogenic
Review Status:criteria provided, single submitter
Collection Method:clinical testing

This sequence change replaces tyrosine, which is neutral and polar, with cysteine, which is neutral and slightly polar, at codon 465 of the FH protein (p.Tyr465Cys). This variant is not present in population databases (gnomAD no frequency). This missense change has been observed in individual(s) with hereditary leiomyomatosis and renal cell cancer (PMID: 12772087, 31444830; internal data). This variant is also known as 1265A>G (Y422C). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 214425). Invitae Evidence Modeling of protein sequence and biophysical properties (such as structural, functional, and spatial information, amino acid conservation, physicochemical variation, residue mobility, and thermodynamic stability) indicates that this missense variant is expected to disrupt FH protein function with a positive predictive value of 95%. Experimental studies have shown that this missense change affects FH function (PMID: 16597677). For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. -

Significance:Pathogenic
Review Status:criteria provided, single submitter
Collection Method:clinical testing

The p.Y465C pathogenic mutation (also known as c.1394A>G), located in coding exon 10 of the FH gene, results from an A to G substitution at nucleotide position 1394. The tyrosine at codon 465 is replaced by cysteine, an amino acid with highly dissimilar properties. This alteration has been reported in multiple unrelated individuals with a clinical diagnosis of hereditary leiomyomatosis and renal cell cancer (HLRCC) (Toro JR et al. Am. J. Hum. Genet. 2003 Jul;73:95-106; Ambry internal data). Of note, this alteration is also designated as Y422C in the published literature. This alteration has been shown to be functionally deleterious by exhibiting reduced fumarate hydratase enzyme activity in lymphocytes (Pithukpakorn M et al. J. Med. Genet. 2006 Sep;43:755-62). This amino acid position is highly conserved in available vertebrate species. In addition, this alteration is predicted to be deleterious by in silico analysis. This variant is considered to be rare based on population cohorts in the Genome Aggregation Database (gnomAD). Based on the supporting evidence, this alteration is interpreted as a disease-causing mutation. -
