Variant summary

Our verdict is Pathogenic. The variant received 19 ACMG points: 19P and 0B. PM1 PM2 PM5 PP2 PP3_Strong PP5_Very_Strong

The NM_000277.3(PAH):​c.839A>C​(p.Glu280Ala) variant causes a missense change involving the alteration of a conserved nucleotide. The variant was absent in control chromosomes in GnomAD project. In-silico tool predicts a pathogenic outcome for this variant. 13/22 in silico tools predict a damaging outcome for this variant. Variant has been reported in ClinVar as Pathogenic (★★). Another variant affecting the same amino acid position, but resulting in a different missense (i.e. E280K) has been classified as Pathogenic.

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 34 aminoacids with missense pathogenic changes in the window of +-8 aminoacids around while only 1 benign, 7 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 chr12-102852819-C-T is described in ClinVar as Pathogenic. ClinVar VariationId is 580.Status of the report is criteria_provided_multiple_submitters_no_conflicts, 2 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, 0.994
• PP5: Variant 12-102852818-T-G is Pathogenic according to our data. Variant chr12-102852818-T-G is described in ClinVar as Pathogenic. ClinVar VariationId is 2137406.Status of the report is criteria_provided_multiple_submitters_no_conflicts, 2 stars.
