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]

Review Status:criteria provided, single submitter
Collection Method:clinical testing

This sequence change affects a donor splice site in intron 7 of the PAH gene. It is expected to disrupt RNA splicing. Variants that disrupt the donor or acceptor splice site typically lead to a loss of protein function (PMID: 16199547), and loss-of-function variants in PAH are known to be pathogenic (PMID: 1301187, 9634518). This variant is present in population databases (rs5030852, gnomAD 0.008%). Disruption of this splice site has been observed in individual(s) with phenylketonuria (PMID: 16256386, 20188615, 23764561, 24941924). This variant is also known as IVS VII-1G>A and IVS7+1G>A. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 599). 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. -

The c.842+1G>A in PAH has been reported in at least 6 homozygous and over 50 compound heterozygous individuals affected with Hyperphenylalaninemia or Phenylketonuria (selected publications: Hillert 2020 PMID: 32668217). This variant was classified as Pathogenic on August 13, 2018 by the ClinGen-approved ClinGen PAH Variant Curation Expert Panel (Variation ID 599) and was identified in 5/68040 European and in 1/10608 Finnish chromosomes by gnomAD (http://gnomad.broadinstitute.org). This variant occurs within the canonical splice site (+/- 1,2) and is predicted to cause altered splicing leading to an abnormal or absent protein. Loss of function of the PAH gene is an established disease mechanism in autosomal recessive Phenylketonuria. In summary, this variant meets criteria to be classified as pathogenic for autosomal recessive hyperphenylalanemia/phenylkenonuria. ACMG/AMP Criteria applied: PM2_Supporting, PVS1, PM3_Very Strong. -

Variant summary: PAH c.842+1G>A is located in a canonical splice-site and is predicted to affect mRNA splicing resulting in a significantly altered protein due to either exon skipping, shortening, or inclusion of intronic material. Several computational tools predict a significant impact on normal splicing: Four predict the variant abolishes a 5 splicing donor site. However, these predictions have yet to be confirmed by functional studies. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 4.4e-05 in 251272 control chromosomes (gnomAD). This frequency is not significantly higher than expected for a pathogenic variant in PAH causing Phenylalanine Hydroxylase Deficiency (Phenylketonuria) (4.4e-05 vs 0.0079), allowing no conclusion about variant significance. c.842+1G>A has been reported in the literature in multiple individuals affected with Phenylalanine Hydroxylase Deficiency (Phenylketonuria; Example: Dianzani_1991, Leuzzi_2006, Aldamiz-Echevarria_2016, Li_2018). These data indicate that the variant is very likely to be associated with disease. To our knowledge, no experimental evidence demonstrating an impact on protein function has been reported. Six other ClinVar submitters (evaluation after 2014) including an expert panel (ClinGen PAH Variant Curation Expert Panel) cite the variant as likely pathogenic/pathogenic. Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as pathogenic. -

The observed splice donor variant c.842+1G>A in the PAH gene has been reported previously in multiple individuals with phenylketonuria (Vieira Neto E, et al., 2018; Vela-Amieva M, et al., 2015). This variant is reported with the allele frequency 0.004% in the gnomAD Exomes. This variant has been reported to the ClinVar database as Pathogenic/Likely Pathogenic by multiple submitters with a status of reviewed by expert panel. The variant affects the GT donor splice site downstream of exon 7. Loss of function variants have been previously reported to be disease causing. The variant is predicted to be damaging by SpliceAI prediction tool. For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. -

The PAH c.842+1G>A variant disrupts a canonical splice-donor site and interferes with normal PAH mRNA splicing. This variant has been reported in the published literature in individuals with phenylketonuria (PKU) phenotypes, including mild PKU, classic PKU, and hyperphenylalaninemia (HPA) (PMIDs: 38105685 (2023), 36845377 (2023), 34828281 (2021), 33465300 (2021), 33375644 (2020), 30747360 (2019), 30050108 (2018), 27121329 (2016), 24941924 (2015), 23932990 (2013), 23856132 (2013), 23764561 (2013), 23430918 (2012), 20920871 (2011), 20188615 (2010), 19609714 (2009), 19444284 (2009), 17096675 (2007), 16601866 (2006), 16256386 (2005), 16198137 (2005), 12655553 (2003), 12649065 (2003), 10394930 (1999), 1671810 (1991)). The frequency of this variant in the general population, 0.000078 (10/128996 chromosomes (Genome Aggregation Database, http://gnomad.broadinstitute.org)), is consistent with pathogenicity. Based on the available information, this variant is classified as pathogenic. -
