Variant summary

Our verdict is Pathogenic. The variant received 13 ACMG points: 13P and 0B. PM1 PM2 PM5 PP2 PP3_Strong PP5_Moderate

The NM_000277.3(PAH):​c.789C>A​(p.Phe263Leu) variant causes a missense change involving the alteration of a non-conserved nucleotide. 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 Likely pathogenic (★). Another nucleotide change resulting in the same amino acid substitution has been previously reported as Uncertain significance in ClinVar. Another variant affecting the same amino acid position, but resulting in a different missense (i.e. F263S) has been classified as Pathogenic. The gene PAH is included in the ClinGen Criteria Specification Registry.

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

Specifications for PAH are available in the ClinGen Criteria Specification Registry and recommended for reference when assigning criteria.

Our verdict: Pathogenic. The variant received 13 ACMG points.

• PM1: In a hotspot region, there are 26 aminoacids with missense pathogenic changes in the window of +-8 aminoacids around while only 0 benign, 17 uncertain 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 chr12-102852869-A-G is described in ClinVar as Pathogenic. ClinVar VariationId is 619150.Status of the report is reviewed_by_expert_panel, 3 stars.
• PP2: Missense variant in the gene, where a lot of missense mutations are associated with disease in ClinVar. The gene has 440 curated pathogenic missense variants (we use a threshold of 10). The gene has 8 curated benign missense variants. Gene score misZ: -0.64755 (below the threshold of 3.09). Trascript score misZ: -0.0084567 (below the threshold of 3.09). GenCC associations: The gene is linked to mild phenylketonuria, classic phenylketonuria, phenylketonuria, maternal phenylketonuria, mild hyperphenylalaninemia, tetrahydrobiopterin-responsive hyperphenylalaninemia/phenylketonuria.
• PP3: MetaRNN computational evidence supports a deleterious effect, 0.992
• PP5: Variant 12-102852868-G-T is Pathogenic according to our data. Variant chr12-102852868-G-T is described in ClinVar as Likely_pathogenic. ClinVar VariationId is 1066686.Status of the report is criteria_provided_single_submitter, 1 stars.
