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]

Phenylketonuria Pathogenic:1Uncertain:1
Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingInvitaeJan 02, 2024This sequence change affects codon 400 of the PAH mRNA. It is a 'silent' change, meaning that it does not change the encoded amino acid sequence of the PAH protein. It affects a nucleotide within the consensus splice site. This variant is present in population databases (rs199475593, gnomAD 0.007%). This variant has been observed in individual(s) with hyperphenylalaninemia (PMID: 8632937, 34828281; Invitae). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 102553). Algorithms developed to predict the effect of sequence changes on RNA splicing suggest that this variant may disrupt the consensus splice site. For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. -

Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingWomen's Health and Genetics/Laboratory Corporation of America, LabCorpNov 30, 2023Variant summary: PAH c.1198A>C (p.Arg400Arg) alters a conserved nucleotide located close to a canonical splice site (the penultimate nucleotide of exon 11) and therefore could affect mRNA splicing, leading to a significantly altered protein sequence. Consensus agreement among computation tools predict no significant impact on normal splicing. However, these predictions have yet to be confirmed by functional studies. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 4e-06 in 251292 control chromosomes (gnomAD). The available data on variant occurrences in the general population are insufficient to allow any conclusion about variant significance. c.1198A>C has been reported in the literature in at least two individuals affected with Phenylalanine Hydroxylase Deficiency (Phenylketonuria) or hyperphenylalaninemia (e.g., Eisensmith_1996, Narravula_2017, Hillert_2020, Vela-Amieva_2021). These data indicate that the variant may be associated with disease. To our knowledge, no experimental evidence demonstrating an impact on protein function has been reported. The following publications have been ascertained in the context of this evaluation (PMID: 8632937, 27308838, 32668217, 34828281). Two submitters have reported clinical-significance assessments for this variant to ClinVar after 2014. All submitters classified the variant as uncertain significance. Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as VUS-possibly pathogenic. -
