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]

Likely pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingInvitaeDec 17, 2023This sequence change replaces arginine, which is basic and polar, with glutamine, which is neutral and polar, at codon 275 of the PHYH protein (p.Arg275Gln). This variant is present in population databases (rs104894174, gnomAD 0.02%). This missense change has been observed in individuals with Refsum disease (PMID: 10767344). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 7588). Advanced modeling of protein sequence and biophysical properties (such as structural, functional, and spatial information, amino acid conservation, physicochemical variation, residue mobility, and thermodynamic stability) performed at Invitae indicates that this missense variant is expected to disrupt PHYH protein function with a positive predictive value of 80%. Experimental studies have shown that this missense change affects PHYH function (PMID: 10767344, 11555634). This variant disrupts the p.Arg275 amino acid residue in PHYH. Other variant(s) that disrupt this residue have been determined to be pathogenic (PMID: 9657395, 10767344, 28041643). This suggests that this residue is clinically significant, and that variants that disrupt this residue are likely to be disease-causing. In summary, the currently available evidence indicates that the variant is pathogenic, but additional data are needed to prove that conclusively. Therefore, this variant has been classified as Likely Pathogenic. -
