Genes affected
HAL (HGNC:4806): (histidine ammonia-lyase) Histidine ammonia-lyase is a cytosolic enzyme catalyzing the first reaction in histidine catabolism, the nonoxidative deamination of L-histidine to trans-urocanic acid. Histidine ammonia-lyase defects cause histidinemia which is characterized by increased histidine and histamine and decreased urocanic acid in body fluids. Several transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been found for this gene. [provided by RefSeq, Apr 2012]

ACMG classification

Classification made for transcript

Verdict is Uncertain_significance. Variant got 4 ACMG points.

PVS1
Splicing variant, NOT destroyed by nmd, known LOF gene, truncates exone, which is 0.04052685 fraction of the gene. Cryptic splice site detected, with MaxEntScore 6, offset of 46, new splice context is: ctgGTaatt. Cryptic site results in frameshift change. If cryptic site found is not functional and variant results in exon loss, it results in inframe change.
PM2
Very rare variant in population databases, with high coverage;

Histidinemia Uncertain:1
Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingIllumina Laboratory Services, IlluminaOct 19, 2018The HAL c.1287+2T>C variant occurs in a canonical splice site (donor) site and is therefore predicted to disrupt or distort the normal gene product. This variant has been reported in one study in which it is found in a heterozygous state in one individual with raised histidine levels from the Atherosclerosis Risk in Communities (ARIC) study (Yu et al. 2015). Control data are unavailable for the c.1287+2T>C variant, which has been reported at a frequency of 0.00070 in the European American population of the Exome Sequencing Project. The evidence for this variant is limited but in combination with the the potential impact of splice donor variants, the c.1287+2T>C variant is classified as a variant of unknown significance but suspicious for pathogenicity for histidinemia. This variant was observed by ICSL as part of a predisposition screen in an ostensibly healthy population. -
Increased histidine Other:1
association, criteria provided, single submitterresearchLupski Lab, Baylor-Hopkins CMG, Baylor College of MedicineNov 15, 2015Three heterozygous loss-of-function variants in HAL were found in 24/1152 African American individuals, in association with elevated serum histidine levels. Histidine level is a potential predictor of cardiovascular risk. Thus, loss-of-function variants in HAL may modify cardiovascular risk. Findings were replicated in a European American cohort. -
