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]

Homocystinuria due to methylene tetrahydrofolate reductase deficiency Pathogenic:2
Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingInvitaeAug 05, 2022For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 522696). This premature translational stop signal has been observed in individual(s) with clinical features of severe methylenetetrahydrofolate reductase deficiency (PMID: 31068897). This variant is not present in population databases (gnomAD no frequency). This sequence change creates a premature translational stop signal (p.Arg52*) in the MTHFR gene. It is expected to result in an absent or disrupted protein product. Loss-of-function variants in MTHFR are known to be pathogenic (PMID: 25736335). -
