Variant summary

Our verdict is Pathogenic. Variant got 10 ACMG points: 10P and 0B. PM1PM2PM5PP3_Strong

The NM_000277.3(PAH):c.506G>C(p.Arg169Pro) variant causes a missense change involving the alteration of a non-conserved nucleotide. The variant was absent in control chromosomes in GnomAD project. In-silico tool predicts a pathogenic outcome for this variant. Variant has been reported in ClinVar as Uncertain significance (★★★). Another variant affecting the same amino acid position, but resulting in a different missense (i.e. R169C) has been classified as Likely pathogenic.

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]

ACMG classification

Classification made for transcript

Verdict is Pathogenic. Variant got 10 ACMG points.

PM1
In a hotspot region, there are 12 aminoacids with missense pathogenic changes in the window of +-8 aminoacids around while only 1 benign, 6 uncertain in NM_000277.3
PM2
Very rare variant in population databases, with high coverage;
PM5
Other missense variant is known to change same aminoacid residue: Variant chr12-102866600-G-A is described in ClinVar as [Likely_pathogenic]. Clinvar id is 125436.Status of the report is reviewed_by_expert_panel, 3 stars.
PP3
MetaRNN computational evidence supports a deleterious effect, 0.97

Likely pathogenic, no assertion criteria providedclinical testingMedical Genetics Center, Academic Academic Center for Education, Culture and Research (ACECR), Khorasan RazaviOct 18, 2017The mutation has been detected in compound heterozygous state with another pathogenic mutation (c.506G>C) in a 5 years old girl affected with PKU and was found in heterozygous in her father. -
Uncertain significance, reviewed by expert panelcurationClinGen PAH Variant Curation Expert PanelMar 26, 2021The c.506G>C (p.Arg169Pro) variant in PAH is reported as Likely Pathogenic by one clinical laboratory in ClinVar (see variant ID 446524); no further information is provided. At the time of review, the variant does not appear to be reported in the published literature and/or in the BioPKU database. The variant is predicted damaging by multiple lines of computational evidence (PP3). It is absent in gnomAD (PM2). Other missense variants at this site are pathogenic/likely pathogenic – p.Arg169Ser (variant ID 932262), p.Arg169His (variant ID 102706), p.Arg169Gly (variant ID 551103), and p.Arg169Cys (variant ID 125436) (PM5). In summary, this variant meets criteria to be classified as uncertain significance for PAH. PAH-specific ACMG/AMP criteria applied: PM2, PM5, PP3. -
