Labcorp Genetics (formerly Invitae), Labcorp RCV001958245 SCV002219241 uncertain significance Homocystinuria due to methylene tetrahydrofolate reductase deficiency 2022-08-19 criteria provided, single submitter clinical testing This sequence change replaces arginine, which is basic and polar, with glutamine, which is neutral and polar, at codon 68 of the MTHFR protein (p.Arg68Gln). This variant is present in population databases (rs2066472, gnomAD 0.1%). This variant has not been reported in the literature in individuals affected with MTHFR-related conditions. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 1445361). Algorithms developed to predict the effect of missense changes on protein structure and function are either unavailable or do not agree on the potential impact of this missense change (SIFT: "Deleterious"; PolyPhen-2: "Probably Damaging"; Align-GVGD: "Class C0"). This variant disrupts the p.Arg68 amino acid residue in MTHFR. Other variant(s) that disrupt this residue have been determined to be pathogenic (PMID: 25736335, 27743313, 29246599). This suggests that this residue is clinically significant, and that variants that disrupt this residue are likely to be disease-causing. In summary, the available evidence is currently insufficient to determine the role of this variant in disease. Therefore, it has been classified as a Variant of Uncertain Significance.
