NM_000277.3:c.505C>T

Variant summary

Our verdict is Likely pathogenic. The variant received 8 ACMG points: 8P and 0B. PM3_StrongPM2PP4_Moderate

This summary comes from the ClinGen Evidence Repository: The c.505C>T (p.Arg169Cys) PAH variant has been identified in at least 3 compound heterozygous probands with mild HPA to classic PKU, with at least 1 proband excluding BH4 deficiency (PMIDs: 28771436, 30050108, 30747360). It has been detected in trans with pathogenic variants Arg243Gln (ClinVar 591), Arg408Gln (ClinVar 577), and c.208_210del (ClinVar 102632). This variant occurs and a very low frequency of 0.00001194 in gnomAD. In summary, this variant meets criteria to be classified as likely pathogenic for PAH. PAH-specific ACMG/AMP criteria applied: PM3_Strong, PM2, PP4_Moderate. LINK:https://erepo.genome.network/evrepo/ui/classification/CA267693/MONDO:0009861/006

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]
