Variant summary

Our verdict is Pathogenic. Variant got 18 ACMG points: 18P and 0B. PM1PM2PM5PP3_StrongPP5_Very_Strong

The NM_000277.3(PAH):c.164T>C(p.Phe55Ser) variant causes a missense change. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 0.000000687 in 1,454,702 control chromosomes in the GnomAD database, with no homozygous occurrence. In-silico tool predicts a pathogenic outcome for this variant. Variant has been reported in ClinVar as Likely pathogenic (★★★). Another variant affecting the same amino acid position, but resulting in a different missense (i.e. F55L) 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 18 ACMG points.

PM1
In a hotspot region, there are 10 aminoacids with missense pathogenic changes in the window of +-8 aminoacids around while only 1 benign, 7 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 chr12-102912794-A-C is described in ClinVar as [Likely_pathogenic]. Clinvar id is 92734.Status of the report is criteria_provided_multiple_submitters_no_conflicts, 2 stars.
PP3
MetaRNN computational evidence supports a deleterious effect, 0.979
PP5
Variant 12-102912795-A-G is Pathogenic according to our data. Variant chr12-102912795-A-G is described in ClinVar as [Likely_pathogenic]. Clinvar id is 120266.Status of the report is reviewed_by_expert_panel, 3 stars. Variant chr12-102912795-A-G is described in Lovd as [Pathogenic].

Phenylketonuria Pathogenic:2
Likely pathogenic, reviewed by expert panelcurationClinGen PAH Variant Curation Expert PanelDec 10, 2018The c.164T>C (p.Phe55Ser) variant in PAH is reported in 1 French patient with classic PKU. BH4 deficiency was not assessed. It was detected with a known pathogenic variant c.1066-11G>A (PMID: 26666653). This variant is absent from ExAC, gnomAD, 1000G, and ESP. A deleterious effect is predicted in SIFT, Polyphen-2, MutationTaster, and REVEL=0.96. In summary, this variant meets criteria to be classified as likely pathogenic for PAH. PAH-specific ACMG/AMP criteria applied: PM2, PM3, PP4, PP3. -
