Genes affected
PAH (HGNC:8582): (phenylalanine hydroxylase) This gene encodes a member of the biopterin-dependent aromatic amino acid hydroxylase protein family. The encoded phenylalanine hydroxylase enzyme hydroxylates phenylalanine to tyrosine and is the rate-limiting step in phenylalanine catabolism. Deficiency of this enzyme activity results in the autosomal recessive disorder phenylketonuria. [provided by RefSeq, Aug 2017]

Submissions by phenotype

Phenylketonuria Pathogenic:4
Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingLabcorp Genetics (formerly Invitae), LabcorpNov 06, 2023This sequence change replaces alanine, which is neutral and non-polar, with aspartic acid, which is acidic and polar, at codon 447 of the PAH protein (p.Ala447Asp). This variant is present in population databases (rs76542238, gnomAD 0.002%). This missense change has been observed in individual(s) with hyperphenylalaninaemia or phenylketonuria (PMID: 10429004, 12173030). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 102595). Advanced modeling of protein sequence and biophysical properties (such as structural, functional, and spatial information, amino acid conservation, physicochemical variation, residue mobility, and thermodynamic stability) performed at Invitae indicates that this missense variant is expected to disrupt PAH protein function with a positive predictive value of 80%. Experimental studies have shown that this missense change affects PAH function (PMID: 9540801). For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. -
Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingWomen's Health and Genetics/Laboratory Corporation of America, LabCorpSep 17, 2019Variant summary: PAH c.1340C>A (p.Ala447Asp) results in a non-conservative amino acid change located in the oligomerization domain (Hufton_1998). Five of five in-silico tools predict a damaging effect of the variant on protein function. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 8e-06 in 251166 control chromosomes (gnomAD). The variant, c.1340C>A, has been reported in the literature in multiple individuals affected with Phenylalanine Hydroxylase Deficiency (Phenylketonuria) (Guldberg_1996, O'Donnell_2002). These data indicate that the variant is very likely to be associated with disease. At least one publication reported experimental evidence evaluating an impact on protein function, and reported that the variant decreases subunit assembly, resulting in compromised enzyme activity (Hufton_1998). Two other clinical diagnostic laboratories have submitted clinical-significance assessments for this variant to ClinVar after 2014 without evidence for independent evaluation, and both of them classified the variant as pathogenic. Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as pathogenic. -

PAH-related disorder Pathogenic:1
Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingPreventionGenetics, part of Exact SciencesAug 28, 2023The PAH c.1340C>A variant is predicted to result in the amino acid substitution p.Ala447Asp. This variant has been reported in multiple individuals with phenylalanine hydroxylase deficiency (Guldberg et al. 1996. PubMed ID: 8659548; Table S3 in Hillert et al. 2020. PubMed ID: 32668217). In an experimental study, substitution of the homologous amino acid in the rat PAH protein [A(447)D] was reported to affect enzyme function (Hufton et al. 1998. PubMed ID: 9540801). An alternate substitution of the same amino acid (p.Ala447Pro) has also been reported in affected individuals (for example, see Table S3 in Hillert et al. 2020. PubMed ID: 32668217). This variant is reported in 0.0023% of alleles in individuals of European (Non-Finnish) descent in gnomAD (http://gnomad.broadinstitute.org/variant/12-103232972-G-T). In summary, this variant is interpreted as pathogenic. -
