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]

This sequence change replaces isoleucine, which is neutral and non-polar, with leucine, which is neutral and non-polar, at codon 97 of the PAH protein (p.Ile97Leu). This variant is present in population databases (rs142516271, gnomAD 0.2%). This missense change has been observed in individual(s) with mild hyperphenylalaninemia (PMID: 17627389). In at least one individual the data is consistent with being in trans (on the opposite chromosome) from a pathogenic variant. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 376937). Invitae Evidence Modeling of protein sequence and biophysical properties (such as structural, functional, and spatial information, amino acid conservation, physicochemical variation, residue mobility, and thermodynamic stability) indicates that this missense variant is not expected to disrupt PAH protein function with a negative predictive value of 80%. In summary, the available evidence is currently insufficient to determine the role of this variant in disease. Therefore, it has been classified as a Variant of Uncertain Significance.

PAH-specific ACMG/AMP criteria applied: BP4: Tolerated in SIFT, benign in Polyphen-2, Polymorphism in MutationTaster. REVEL=0.511; PP4: Seen in patient with mild HPA (PMID:17627389). In summary this variant meets criteria to be classified as uncertain significance for phenylketonuria in an autosomal recessive manner based on the ACMG/AMP criteria applied as specified by the PAH Expert Panel: (BP4, PP4).

Variant summary: PAH c.289A>C (p.Ile97Leu) results in a conservative amino acid change located in the ACT domain (IPR002912) of the encoded protein sequence. Five of five in-silico tools predict a benign effect of the variant on protein function. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 0.00016 in 251446 control chromosomes. This frequency is not significantly higher than estimated for a pathogenic variant in PAH causing Phenylalanine Hydroxylase Deficiency (Phenylketonuria) (0.00016 vs 0.0079), allowing no conclusion about variant significance. c.289A>C has been reported in the literature in individuals affected with persistent hyperphenylalaninemia. These report(s) do not provide unequivocal conclusions about association of the variant with Phenylalanine Hydroxylase Deficiency (Phenylketonuria). To our knowledge, no experimental evidence demonstrating an impact on protein function has been reported. The following publications have been ascertained in the context of this evaluation (PMID: 30311390, 17627389). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 376937). Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as uncertain significance.
