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]

Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingWomen's Health and Genetics/Laboratory Corporation of America, LabCorpMay 14, 2018Variant summary: PAH c.529G>C (p.Val177Leu) results in a conservative amino acid change located in the catalytic domain of the encoded protein sequence (Jeannesson-Thivisol 2015). Four of five in-silico tools predict a damaging effect of the variant on protein function. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 2.9e-05 in 276898 control chromosomes. This frequency is not higher than expected for a pathogenic variant in PAH causing Phenylalanine Hydroxylase Deficiency (Phenylketonuria) (2.9e-05 vs 0.0079), allowing no conclusion about variant significance. The variant, c.529G>C has been reported in the literature in multiple individuals affected with mild Phenylalanine Hydroxylase Deficiency (Phenylketonuria) and also found in individuals with Hyperphenylalaninemia (e.g. Djordjevic 2012, Sterl 2013, Reblova 2013, Anjema 2013, Jeannesson-Thivisol2015). These data indicate that the variant is very likely to be associated with disease. Tetrahydrobiopterin (BH4) responsiveness was reported to be inconsistent in patients, probably influenced by the other variant found in trans (Djordjevic 2012, Anjema 2013). In a recent study a compound heterozygous patient carrying this mutation with a null mutation, was found to be BH4-responsive (Jeannesson-Thivisol 2015). One clinical diagnostic laboratory has submitted clinical-significance assessments for this variant to ClinVar after 2014 without evidence for independent evaluation, and classified the variant as pathogenic. Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as pathogenic. -

Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingLabcorp Genetics (formerly Invitae), LabcorpJan 16, 2024This sequence change replaces valine, which is neutral and non-polar, with leucine, which is neutral and non-polar, at codon 177 of the PAH protein (p.Val177Leu). This variant is present in population databases (rs199475602, gnomAD 0.006%). This missense change has been observed in individual(s) with PAH-related conditions (PMID: 8659548, 8807331, 22513348, 23430547, 24789341, 25087612, 26666653). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 102727). 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 not expected to disrupt PAH protein function with a negative predictive value of 80%. This variant disrupts the p.Val177 amino acid residue in PAH. Other variant(s) that disrupt this residue have been determined to be pathogenic (PMID: 12501224, 17096675, 23430547, 23500595, 23764561, 27121329). This suggests that this residue is clinically significant, and that variants that disrupt this residue are likely to be disease-causing. For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. -

Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingGeneDxMay 31, 2018The V177L variant in the PAH gene has been reported as a pathogenic variant in the PAH Consortium database. The V177L variant has previously been reported in association with mild phenylketonuria (PKU) and hyperphenylalaninemia (Eiken et al., 1996; Réblová et al.,2013; Jeannesson-Thivisol et al., 2015). Tetrahydrobiopterin (BH4) responsiveness is inconsistent in patients with V177L (Zurfluh et al., 2008; Sarkissian et al., 2012; Anjema et al., 2013). Therefore, we interpret V177L in PAH as a pathogenic variant. -

PAH-related disorder Pathogenic:1
Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingPreventionGenetics, part of Exact SciencesNov 10, 2022The PAH c.529G>C variant is predicted to result in the amino acid substitution p.Val177Leu. This patient is also heterozygous in the PAH gene for a sequence variant designated c.529G>C, which is predicted to result in the amino acid substitution p.Val177Leu. This variant has been reported, along with a second pathogenic PAH variant, in several individuals that presented with either mild hyperphenylalaninemia (MHP) or mild phenylketonuria (mPKU) (Guldberg et al. 1996. PubMed ID: 8659548; Langenbeck et al. 2009. PubMed ID: 19609714; Feillet et al. 2014. PubMed ID: 24789341; Djordjevic et al. 2013. PubMed ID: 23430547). Different substitutions of the same codon (p.Val177Met, p.Val177Ala) have also been reported in association with phenylalanine hydroxylase deficiency (Muntau et al. 2002. PubMed ID: 12501224; Jennings et al. 2000. PubMed ID: 10980574). Internally, we have observed the c.529G>C (p.Val177Leu) variant along with a second pathogenic PAH variant in affected individuals. This variant is also documented in the PAH variant database (http://www.biopku.org/home/home.asp) and is classified as a MHP variant. Additionally, it is interpreted as pathogenic by the ClinGen PAH Variant Curation Expert Panel and as pathogenic or likely pathogenic by other outside laboratories (https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/clinvar/variation/102727/). Based on the collective evidence, this variant is interpreted as pathogenic. -
