Variant summary

Our verdict is Pathogenic. Variant got 6 ACMG points: 6P and 0B. PP3PM3PM2_SupportingPP4_Moderate

This summary comes from the ClinGen Evidence Repository: The NM_000277.3: c.441+5G>A variant in PAH is an intronic variant that is predicted by SpliceAI to alter splicing (SpliceAI score 0.91, >0.2 cutoff for PP3). c.441+5G>A has a Pop max allele frequency of [8.498e-7] for [ENF] chromosomes by gnomAD v4.1.0, which is lower than the ClinGen PAH threshold (≤ 0.0002) and therefore meets PM2_Supporting. It has been observed in individuals with phenylalanine hydroxylase deficiency in presumed trans (phase confirmed) with other pathogenic variants, including with p.Arg158Gln (ClinVar ID: 587) in one individual (PMID:18321666) and with p.Val388Met (ClinVar ID 619) in 8 individuals (PMID:32668217) (PM3_VeryStrong). It has been observed in at least one classic PKU patient with BH4 deficiency excluded (PMID:18321666; PP4_moderate). In summary, this variant meets criteria to be classified as pathogenic for phenylketonuria in an autosomal recessive manner based on the ACMG/AMP criteria applied as specified by the PAH Expert Panel: PM2_Supporting, PM3_VeryStrong, PP3, PP4_Moderate.

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]
