Description

For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 801438). This premature translational stop signal has been observed in individual(s) with MTHFR deficiency (PMID: 12733064, 20356773). This variant is not present in population databases (gnomAD no frequency). This sequence change creates a premature translational stop signal (p.Ser78*) 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).
