Labcorp Genetics (formerly Invitae), Labcorp RCV000196988 SCV000283675 pathogenic not provided 2024-01-31 criteria provided, single submitter clinical testing This sequence change replaces arginine, which is basic and polar, with histidine, which is basic and polar, at codon 233 of the FH protein (p.Arg233His). This variant is present in population databases (rs121913123, gnomAD 0.004%). This missense change has been observed in individuals with hereditary leiomyomatosis and renal cell cancer (PMID: 11865300, 12772087, 15937070, 20618355, 22127509). This variant is also known as c.569G>A, p.Arg190His. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 16236). Advanced modeling of protein sequence and biophysical properties (such as structural, functional, and spatial information, amino acid conservation, physicochemical variation, residue mobility, and thermodynamic stability) performed at Invitae 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: 11865300, 17960613, 18313410, 21445611). This variant disrupts the p.Arg233 amino acid residue in FH. Other variant(s) that disrupt this residue have been determined to be pathogenic (PMID: 21445611). This suggests that this residue is clinically significant, and that variants that disrupt this residue are likely to be disease-causing. For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic.

Ambry Genetics RCV000493379 SCV000581639 pathogenic Hereditary cancer-predisposing syndrome 2022-01-06 criteria provided, single submitter clinical testing The p.R233H pathogenic mutation (also known as c.698G>A), located in coding exon 5 of the FH gene, results from a G to A substitution at nucleotide position 698. This mutation has been identified in many patients and families affected with histologically confirmed cutaneous leiomyomata, uterine leiomyomata and renal tumors (Huter E et al. Acta Derm. Venereol. 2008;88(1):63-5; Smit DL et al. Clin. Genet. 2011 Jan;79(1):49-59; Wang C et al. JAAD Case Rep. 2015 May;1(3):150-2). This mutation has been demonstrated to result in decreased FH enzyme activity in multiple individuals (Tomlinson IP et al. Nat. Genet. 2002 Apr;30(4):406-10; Alam N et al. Hum. Mol. Genet. 2003 Jun;12(11):1241-52). In addition, this mutation was also detected in two unrelated individuals with demonstrated loss of heterozygosity for FH on tumor analysis (Gatalica Z et al. Hum. Pathol. 2011 Dec;42(12):1979-88; Sanz-Ortega J et al. Am. J. Surg. Pathol. 2013 Jan;37(1):74-80). Furthermore, data suggests that this mutation may represent a founder effect or occur at a mutation hotspot (Toro JR et al. Am. J. Hum. Genet. 2003 Jul;73(1):95-106; Wei M et al. J. Med. Genet. 2006 Jan;43(1):18-27). Of note, this alteration is also often referred to as p.R190H in published literature. Based on the available evidence, this alteration is classified as a pathogenic mutation.
ARUP Laboratories, Molecular Genetics and Genomics, ARUP Laboratories RCV000196988 SCV001473885 pathogenic not provided 2020-01-20 criteria provided, single submitter clinical testing The FH c.698G>A; p.Arg233His variant (rs121913123), also known as Arg190His for legacy nomenclature, is reported in the literature in numerous individuals affected with hereditary leiomyomatosis and renal cell cancer (Gatalica 2011, Kakar 2014, Picaud 2011, Raymond 2012, Sanz-Ortega 2013, Tomlinson 2002, Toro 2003), and shown to co-segregate with disease in a family (Toro 2003). This variant is also reported as pathogenic by multiple laboratories in ClinVar (Variation ID: 16236). It is found in the general population with a low overall allele frequency of 0.002% (5/282680 alleles) in the Genome Aggregation Database. The arginine at codon 233 is highly conserved and is considered a mutational hotspot located in the active site of the fumarate hydratase enzyme (Picaud 2011). Computational analyses (SIFT, PolyPhen-2) predict that this variant is deleterious, and functional analyses show that this variant causes decreased enzymatic activity (Tomlinson 2002). Based on available information, this variant is considered to be pathogenic. REFERENCES Gatalica Z et al. Renal medullary carcinomas: histopathologic phenotype associated with diverse genotypes.

In addition, experimental studies have shown this variant has deleterious effects on FH protein function (PMIDs: 18313410 (2008), 17960613 (2008), 11865300 (2002)). The frequency of this variant in the general population, 0.000039 (5/129044 chromosomes (Genome Aggregation Database, http://gnomad.broadinstitute.org)), is consistent with pathogenicity. Based on the available information, this variant is classified as pathogenic.

Five of five in-silico tools predict a damaging effect of the variant on protein function. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 1.6e-05 in 251278 control chromosomes. c.698G>A has been reported in the literature in multiple individuals affected with Hereditary Leiomyomatosis And Renal Cell Cancer and Fumarate Hydratase Deficiency and is reported as one of the most common pathogenic variants (examples: Toro_2003, Tomlinson_2002). Experimental evidence has shown this variant to affect protein function (example: Lorenzato_007). Other variants have been reported at this position, suggesting this codon may be a hotspot (p.R233C, p.R233L). The following publications have been ascertained in the context of this evaluation (PMID: 12772087, 11865300, 17960613). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 16236). Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as pathogenic.

Three of five in-silico tools predict a damaging effect of the variant on protein function. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 7.2e-05 in 250934 control chromosomes (gnomAD). To our knowledge, no occurrence of c.698G>A in individuals affected with Spinocerebellar Ataxia 45 and no experimental evidence demonstrating its impact on protein function have been reported. No submitters have cited clinical-significance assessments for this variant to ClinVar after 2014. Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as uncertain significance.
