Variant summary

Our verdict is Likely pathogenic. Variant got 7 ACMG points: 7P and 0B. PP4_ModeratePM2PP3PM3

This summary comes from the ClinGen Evidence Repository: The c.161T>C (p.Leu54Ser) variant in PAH is a missense variant that is predicted to be deleterious in multiple lines of computational evidence. This variant was reported in a Spanish patient with mild/moderate PKU. A defect in the synthesis or regeneration pathways of 6R-BH4 was ruled out by analyzing urinary pterin levels and measuring the dihydropteridine reductase activity (PMID:27121329). This variant was detected in trans with pathogenic variant c.912+1G>A. It was found in extremely low frequency in gnomAD (MAF=0.00006). In summary, this variant meets criteria to be classified as likely pathogenic for PAH. PAH-specific ACMG/AMP criteria applied: PM2, PP4 moderate, PM3, and PP3.

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]

Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingWomen's Health and Genetics/Laboratory Corporation of America, LabCorpApr 19, 2024Variant summary: PAH c.161T>C (p.Leu54Ser) 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 251396 control chromosomes. c.161T>C has been reported in the literature as a biallelic compound heterozygous genotye in at-least one individual with moderate Phenylketonuria (PKU) who was also non-responsive on the BH4 loading test (examle, Aldamiz-Echevarria_2016, Hillert_2020). To our knowledge, no experimental evidence demonstrating an impact on protein function has been reported. The following publications have been ascertained in the context of this evaluation (PMID: 27121329, 32668217). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 102602) with the ClinGen PAH Variant Curation Expert Panel classification as Likely Pathogenic citing overlapping evidence utilized in the context of this evaluation. Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as VUS-possibly pathogenic. -
