Variant summary

Our verdict is Pathogenic. Variant got 11 ACMG points: 11P and 0B. PM1 PM2 PM5 PP3_Strong PP5

The NM_000277.3(PAH):​c.1069T>C​(p.Cys357Arg) variant causes a missense change. The variant was absent in control chromosomes in GnomAD project. In-silico tool predicts a pathogenic outcome for this variant. Variant has been reported in ClinVar as Conflicting classifications of pathogenicity (no stars). Another variant affecting the same amino acid position, but resulting in a different missense (i.e. C357Y) has been classified as Pathogenic.

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]

ACMG classification

Verdict is Pathogenic. Variant got 11 ACMG points.

• PM1: In a helix (size 6) in uniprot entity PH4H_HUMAN there are 9 pathogenic changes around while only 0 benign (100%) in NM_000277.3
• PM2: Very rare variant in population databases, with high coverage
• PM5: Other missense variant is known to change same aminoacid residue: Variant chr12-102843775-C-T is described in Lovd as [Pathogenic].
• PP3: MetaRNN computational evidence supports a deleterious effect, 0.988
• PP5: Variant 12-102843776-A-G is Pathogenic according to our data. Variant chr12-102843776-A-G is described in ClinVar as [Conflicting_classifications_of_pathogenicity]. Clinvar id is 552458.We mark this variant Likely_pathogenic, oryginal submissions are: {Uncertain_significance=1, Pathogenic=1}. Variant chr12-102843776-A-G is described in Lovd as [Pathogenic].

Significance: Pathogenic

Review Status: criteria provided, single submitter

Collection Method: clinical testing

For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. This variant disrupts the p.Cys357 amino acid residue in PAH. Other variant(s) that disrupt this residue have been determined to be pathogenic (PMID: 32668217; BIOPKU http://www.biopku.org). This suggests that this residue is clinically significant, and that variants that disrupt this residue are likely to be disease-causing. 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. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 552458). This missense change has been observed in individual(s) with hyperphenylalaninemia (PKU) (PMID: 26413448, 32668217; BIOPKU http://www.biopku.org). This variant is not present in population databases (gnomAD no frequency). This sequence change replaces cysteine, which is neutral and slightly polar, with arginine, which is basic and polar, at codon 357 of the PAH protein (p.Cys357Arg). -
