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]

Variant summary: PAH c.506G>T (p.Arg169Leu) results in a non-conservative amino acid change located in the Aromatic amino acid hydroxylase, C-terminal (IPR019774) of the encoded protein sequence. Four of five in-silico tools predict a damaging effect of the variant on protein function. The variant was absent in 250586 control chromosomes. c.506G>T has been reported in the literature in individuals affected with Phenylalanine Hydroxylase Deficiency (Phenylketonuria) (Ngiwsara_2021). Additionally another missense (R169H) was internally classified as pathogenic. These data indicate that the variant is likely to be associated with disease. To our knowledge, no experimental evidence demonstrating an impact on protein function has been reported. The following publication have been ascertained in the context of this evaluation (PMID: 33677757). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 2677436). Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as pathogenic. -

Significance: Pathogenic

Review Status: criteria provided, single submitter

Collection Method: clinical testing

For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. This variant disrupts the p.Arg169 amino acid residue in PAH. Other variant(s) that disrupt this residue have been determined to be pathogenic (PMID: 10234516, 18299955, 21147011, 26666653, 28982351). This suggests that this residue is clinically significant, and that variants that disrupt this residue are likely to be disease-causing. 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. This missense change has been observed in individual(s) with hyperphenylalaninemia (PMID: 33677757). This variant is not present in population databases (gnomAD no frequency). This sequence change replaces arginine, which is basic and polar, with leucine, which is neutral and non-polar, at codon 169 of the PAH protein (p.Arg169Leu). -
