Variant summary

Our verdict is Likely pathogenic. Variant got 6 ACMG points: 6P and 0B. PP3PP4PM3PM2

This summary comes from the ClinGen Evidence Repository: This c.157C>T (p.Arg53Cys) variant in PAH was reported in trans with pathogenic variant p.Arg158Gln in 1 patient with PAH deficiency (324 uMol/L Phe) (PMID:28982351). This variant was found at an amino acid residue where p.Arg53His, a missense variant of uncertain significance, has been seen before. Computational evidence for this missense variant supports a deleterious effect (REVEL=0.766). This variant is found at an extremely low frequency in gnomAD and ExAC (MAF=0.00012), and absent from 1000 Genomes, and ESP. In summary, this variant meets criteria to be classified as likely pathogenic for PAH. PAH-specific ACMG/AMP criteria applied: PM2, PM3, PP3, PP4.

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]

Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingLabcorp Genetics (formerly Invitae), LabcorpJan 08, 2024This sequence change replaces arginine, which is basic and polar, with cysteine, which is neutral and slightly polar, at codon 53 of the PAH protein (p.Arg53Cys). This variant is present in population databases (rs199475619, gnomAD 0.01%). This missense change has been observed in individual(s) with phenylketonuria (PMID: 28982351; Invitae). 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: 102600). 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 not expected to disrupt PAH protein function with a negative predictive value of 80%. For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. -

PAH-related disorder Pathogenic:1
Likely pathogenic, no assertion criteria providedclinical testingPreventionGenetics, part of Exact SciencesSep 04, 2024The PAH c.157C>T variant is predicted to result in the amino acid substitution p.Arg53Cys. This variant has been reported in the compound heterozygous state in an individual(s) with PAH deficiency (PubMed ID: Liu N et al. 2017. PubMed ID: 28982351). This variant is reported in 0.0098% of alleles in individuals of South Asian descent in gnomAD. This variant is interpreted as likely pathogenic by the ClinGen PAH Variant Curation Expert Panel in ClinVar (https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/clinvar/variation/102600/). Taken together, we classify this variant as likely pathogenic. -
not specified Uncertain:1
Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingWomen's Health and Genetics/Laboratory Corporation of America, LabCorpAug 12, 2022Variant summary: PAH c.157C>T (p.Arg53Cys) 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 3.2e-05 in 251390 control chromosomes (gnomAD). The available data on variant occurrences in the general population are insufficient to allow any conclusion about variant significance. c.157C>T has been reported in the literature in at least one individual affected with Phenylalanine Hydroxylase Deficiency (Phenylketonuria, Liu_2017). These data do not allow any conclusion about variant significance. To our knowledge, no experimental evidence demonstrating an impact on protein function has been reported. Three ClinVar submitters, including one expert panel, have assessed the variant since 2014: one classified the variant as of uncertain significance, and two (including the expert panel) classified the variant as likely pathogenic. Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as uncertain significance. -
