Description

This sequence change replaces arginine, which is basic and polar, with cysteine, which is neutral and slightly polar, at codon 325 of the MTHFR protein (p.Arg325Cys). This variant is present in population databases (rs371085894, gnomAD 0.006%). This missense change has been observed in individual(s) with MTHFR deficiency (PMID: 7726158). This variant is also known as C985T, Arg->Cys. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 975600). 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: "Benign"; Align-GVGD: "Class C25"). 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.
