Simple confirmation methods for rare but impaired variants of human flavin-containing monooxygenase 3 (FMO3) found in an updated genome resource databank.
Drug Metabolism and Pharmacokinetics 2023 August 24
Forty-seven new nonsense or missense human flavin-containing monooxygenase 3 (FMO3) variants were recently identified in an updated Japanese population reference panel. Of these, 20 rare single-nucleotide substitutions resulted in moderately or severely impaired FMO3 activity. To easily identify these 20 FMO3 variants (2 stop codon mutations, 2 frameshifts, and 16 amino-acid substitutions) in the clinical setting, simple confirmation methods for impaired FMO3 variants are proposed using polymerase chain reaction (PCR)-restriction fragment length polymorphism (RFLP) or allele-specific PCR methods. Using PCR-RFLP, FMO3 variants p.Arg51Gly, p.Met66Lys, p.Asn80Lys, p.Val151Glu, p.Val187fsTer25, p.Gly193Arg, p.Val283Ala, p.Asp286His, p.Val382Ala, and p.Phe451Leu were digested by the designated restriction enzymes and confirmed using reference cDNAs. In contrast, the FMO3 variants p.Gly39Val, p.Arg238Ter, p.Arg387Cys, p.Arg387His, p.Leu457Trp, and p.Met497Arg were not digested, whereas the wild type was digested. FMO3 variants p.Gly11Asp, p.Lys416fsTer72, p.Gln427Ter, and p.Thr453Pro were confirmed using allele-specific PCR systems. The previously identified FMO3 p.Arg500Ter variant has a relatively high frequency and was differentiated from p.Arg500Gln in two steps, i.e., enzyme restriction followed by allele-specific PCR, similar to the method for p.Arg387Cys and p.Arg387His. These systems should facilitate easy detection in the clinical setting of FMO3 variants in Japanese subjects susceptible to low drug clearance possibly caused by impaired FMO3 function.
