Variant summary

Our verdict is Pathogenic. Variant got 16 ACMG points: 16P and 0B. PVS1PM2PP4_ModeratePM3_Strong

This summary comes from the ClinGen Evidence Repository: The c.592_613del (p.Tyr198fs) variant in PAH is a frameshift variant predicted to cause termination at amino acid 334 in exon 10, resulting in nonsense mediated decay in a gene in which loss-of-function is an established disease mechanism. It has been detected in multiple patients with PAH deficiency with pathogenic variants: c.782G>A (p.Arg261Gln) (PMID:21890392); c.1222C>T (p.Arg408Trp) (PMID:26481238); c.969+1G>A (IVS9 + 1G>A) (PMID:18321666); c.311C>A (p.A104D), c.755G>A (p.R252Q) (PMID:23942198). This variant is absent in population databases.

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]

PAH NM_000277.2 exon 6 p.Tyr198Serfs*136 (c.592_613del): This variant has been reported in the literature in the homozygous state in two individuals with phenylketonuria (Daniele 2009 PMID:19292873, Ajami 2013 PMID:24301756) and has been reported in the PAH Consortium Database (www.biopku.org). This variant is present in 0.01% (5/35428) of Latino alleles in the Genome Aggregation Database (https://gnomad.broadinstitute.org/variant/12-103249006-TCATAGCAAGCATGGGTTTTATA-T). Please note, disease causing variants may be present in control databases at low frequencies, reflective of the general population, carrier status, and/or variable expressivity. This variant is present in ClinVar (Variation ID:102746). Evolutionary conservation and computational predictive tools for this variant are limited or unavailable. This variant represents a deletion of 22 nucleotides and creates a premature stop codon 136 amino acids downstream from this location which results in an absent or abnormal protein. Loss of function variants have been reported in association with disease for this gene (Eisensmith 1992 PMID:1301187, Guldberg 1998 PMID:9634518). In summary, this variant is classified as pathogenic based on the data above. -

Significance: Pathogenic

Review Status: criteria provided, single submitter

Collection Method: clinical testing

The variant is observed at an extremely low frequency in the gnomAD v2.1.1 dataset (total allele frequency: 0.002%). Predicted Consequence/Location: Frameshift: predicted to result in a loss or disruption of normal protein function through nonsense-mediated decay (NMD) or protein truncation. Multiple pathogenic variants are reported downstream of the variant. The variant has been reported to be in trans with a pathogenic variant as either compound heterozygous or homozygous in at least one similarly affected unrelated individual (PMID: 26481238). The variant has been reported at least twice as pathogenic with clinical assertions and evidence for the classification (ClinVar ID: VCV000102746 /PMID: 1301943 /3billion dataset). Therefore, this variant is classified as Pathogenic according to the recommendation of ACMG/AMP guideline. -

Significance: Pathogenic

Review Status: criteria provided, single submitter

Collection Method: clinical testing

This sequence change creates a premature translational stop signal (p.Tyr198Serfs*136) in the PAH gene. It is expected to result in an absent or disrupted protein product. Loss-of-function variants in PAH are known to be pathogenic (PMID: 1301187, 9634518). This variant is present in population databases (rs199475697, gnomAD 0.01%). This premature translational stop signal has been observed in individual(s) with phenylketonuria or hyperphenylalaninemia (PMID: 9359039, 21890392, 24301756). 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: 102746). For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. -

Significance: Pathogenic

Review Status: criteria provided, single submitter

Collection Method: clinical testing

Variant summary: This c.592_613del22 variant causes a frameshift, which alters the proteins amino acid sequence beginning at position 198 and leads to a premature termination codon 136 amino acids downstream. It is predicted to cause a truncated or absent PAH protein. Loss-of-function due to mutations in this gene is an established disease mechanism in Phenylketoneuria. This variant was not found in approximately 121322 chromosomes from the broad and large populations of ExAC. This variant has been recurrently reported as a causative mutation in patients with Phenylketoneuria. The region this variant is located is a mutational hot-spot where other similar pathogenic frameshift variants (such as c.586del22, c.589del22, c.590del23 and c.593del22) (source: HGMD) have been reported. Reputable databases have also classified this variant as pathogenic. Taken together, this variant has been classified as a Pathogenic. -

Review Status: criteria provided, single submitter

Collection Method: clinical testing

The c.592_613del22 (p.Y198Sfs*136) alteration, located in exon 6 (coding exon 6) of the PAH gene, consists of a deletion of 22 nucleotides from position 592 to 613, causing a translational frameshift with a predicted alternate stop codon after 136 amino acids. This alteration is expected to result in loss of function by premature protein truncation or nonsense-mediated mRNA decay. This variant was not reported in population-based cohorts in the Genome Aggregation Database (gnomAD). This mutation has been reported in the homozygous state and in trans with a second alteration in patients with phenylalanine hydroxylase deficiency (Daniele, 2009; Kostandyan, 2011; Ajami, 2013; Carducci, 2020). Based on the available evidence, this alteration is classified as pathogenic. -
