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

Our verdict: Pathogenic. The variant received 19 ACMG points.

• PM1: In a hotspot region, there are 19 aminoacids with missense pathogenic changes in the window of +-8 aminoacids around while only 0 benign, 9 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 chr12-102855193-A-C is described in ClinVar as Likely_pathogenic. ClinVar VariationId is 102771.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 phenylketonuria, tetrahydrobiopterin-responsive hyperphenylalaninemia/phenylketonuria, maternal phenylketonuria, classic phenylketonuria, mild phenylketonuria, mild hyperphenylalaninemia.
• PP3: MetaRNN computational evidence supports a deleterious effect, 0.993
• PP5: Variant 12-102855193-A-G is Pathogenic according to our data. Variant chr12-102855193-A-G is described in ClinVar as Likely_pathogenic. ClinVar VariationId is 102770.Status of the report is criteria_provided_multiple_submitters_no_conflicts, 2 stars.
