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]

Significance:Pathogenic
Review Status:criteria provided, single submitter
Collection Method:clinical testing

Variant summary: PAH c.140C>T (p.Ala47Val) results in a non-conservative amino acid change located in the ACT domain (IPR002912) of the encoded protein sequence. Four of five in-silico tools predict a damaging effect of the variant on protein function. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 4e-06 in 251412 control chromosomes (gnomAD). c.140C>T has been reported in the literature in individuals affected with Phenylalanine Hydroxylase Deficiency (Phenylketonuria) and -mild hyperphenylalaninemia (examples: Aldamiz-Echevarria_2016, Bayat_2016, Ho_2013). These data indicate that the variant is likely to be associated with disease. Experimental studies have shown that this missense change affects PAH function (examples: Gjetting_MGM_2001, Gjetting_AJHG_2001, and Himmelreich_2018). The following publications have been ascertained in the context of this evaluation (PMID: 11161839, 11326337, 30037505, 27121329, 24368688, and 26542770). Two submitters have cited clinical-significance assessments for this variant to ClinVar after 2014. All submitters classified the variant as pathogenic/likely pathogenic. Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as pathogenic. -

Significance:Likely pathogenic
Review Status:reviewed by expert panel
Collection Method:curation

The c.140C>T (p.Ala47Val) variant in PAH has been reported in 3 individuals with MHP (BH4 deficiency excluded). (PMID: 24368688, 27121329). This variant has extremely low frequency in gnomAD MAF=0.00001. This variant was detected with pathogenic variants p.E280K (parental analysis not reported), p.Glu178Gly, c.1066-11G>A (segregation analysis done). Computational evidence is conflicting. In summary, this variant meets criteria to be classified as likely pathogenic for PAH. PAH-specific ACMG/AMP criteria applied: PP4_Moderate, PM2, PM3_strong. -

Significance:Pathogenic
Review Status:criteria provided, single submitter
Collection Method:clinical testing

This sequence change replaces alanine, which is neutral and non-polar, with valine, which is neutral and non-polar, at codon 47 of the PAH protein (p.Ala47Val). This variant is present in population databases (rs118203925, gnomAD 0.0009%). This missense change has been observed in individual(s) with PAH-related conditions (PMID: 24368688, 27121329). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 630). Invitae Evidence Modeling of protein sequence and biophysical properties (such as structural, functional, and spatial information, amino acid conservation, physicochemical variation, residue mobility, and thermodynamic stability) indicates that this missense variant is not expected to disrupt PAH protein function with a negative predictive value of 80%. Experimental studies have shown that this missense change affects PAH function (PMID: 11161839, 11326337, 17924342, 27121329). For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. -
