Genes affected
PHYH (HGNC:8940): (phytanoyl-CoA 2-hydroxylase) This gene is a member of the PhyH family and encodes a peroxisomal protein that is involved in the alpha-oxidation of 3-methyl branched fatty acids. Specifically, this protein converts phytanoyl-CoA to 2-hydroxyphytanoyl-CoA. Mutations in this gene have been associated with Refsum disease (RD) and deficient protein activity has been associated with Zellweger syndrome and rhizomelic chondrodysplasia punctata. Alternate transcriptional splice variants, encoding different isoforms, have been characterized. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]

Significance: Uncertain significance
Review Status: flagged submission
Collection Method: clinical testing

This variant was observed as part of a predisposition screen in an ostensibly healthy population. A literature search was performed for the gene, cDNA change, and amino acid change (where applicable). Publications were found based on this search. However, the evidence from the literature, in combination with allele frequency data from public databases where available, was not sufficient to rule this variant in or out of causing disease. Therefore, this variant is classified as a variant of unknown significance. -

The p.Arg245Gln variant in PHYH has been identified in cis with p.Asp177Gly and in 4 individuals with Refsum disease, including 2 homozygotes and 2 heterozygotes (PMID: 10767344), and has been identified in >2% of European (Finnish) chromosomes and 9 homozygotes by ExAC (http://gnomad.broadinstitute.org/). In vitro functional studies provide some evidence that the p.Arg245Gln variant may not impact protein function (PMID: 10767344). However, these types of assays may not accurately represent biological function. In summary, this variant meets criteria to be classified as benign for autosomal recessive Refsum disease. -
