Description

The MTHFR c.665C>T; p.Ala222Val variant (rs1801133), also known as C677T or the thermolabile variant, is listed in the ClinVar database (Variation ID: 3520) and is observed in the general population with an overall allele frequency of 30.8% (87,234/282,784 alleles including 15,819 homozygotes) in the Genome Aggregation Database. The thermolabile c.665C>T variant in the homozygous state has been correlated with reduced enzyme activity and increased homocysteine (Frosst 1995). The practice guidelines from The American College of Medical Genetics state that this variant in the heterozygous state is unlikely to be of clinical significance (Hickey 2013); however, a possible effect of this variant when paired with a pathogenic MTHFR variant on the opposite chromosome cannot be excluded. Additionally, the practice guidelines state that an individual who is homozygous for the c.665C>T; p.Ala222Val variant and has elevated homocysteine may be at mildly increased risk for venous thromboembolism and recurrent pregnancy loss (Hickey 2013). The variant is considered a ''susceptibility'' or an ''association'' variant. REFERENCES Frosst P et al.
