Variant summary

Our verdict is Pathogenic. The variant received 10 ACMG points: 10P and 0B. PP3PM3_StrongPM2PP4_ModeratePS3_Supporting

This summary comes from the ClinGen Evidence Repository: The c.997C>T (p.Leu333Phe) variant in PAH has been reported in multiple individuals with PAH deficiency (BH4 deficiency excluded). It was detected with multiple pathogenic variants: p.E390G (PMID:8098245); p.R261Q (PMID:21147011); p.S110L (LP by PAH VCEP, PMID:26542770). This variant is absent in population databases. In an eukaryotic expression system, the L333F mutant had 7% PAH activity as compared to wild type (PMID:10479481). Computational evidence supports a deleterious effect. In summary, this variant meets criteria to be classified as Pathogenic for PAH. PAH-specific ACMG/AMP criteria applied: PM3_strong, PP4_Moderate, PM2, PP3, PS3_supporting.

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]
