Variant summary

Our verdict is Likely pathogenic. The variant received 6 ACMG points: 6P and 0B. PP3PP4PM3PM2

This summary comes from the ClinGen Evidence Repository: The c.1074A>T (p.Leu358Phe) variant in PAH meets criteria to be classified as likely pathogenic. PAH-specific ACMG/AMP criteria applied: PM2: Variant is present at low frequency in gnomAD (0.0000) and ExAC (0.00002). Absent from 1000 Genomes. PM3: Found to co-occur with F331S in one patient with mild HPA, but no additional studies to demonstrate phase of variants (PMID:23764561). Found to co-occur with other non-PKU HPA mutation I306V, phase was not confirmed (PMID:23357515). Found to co-occur in two patients with L348V and R408W with mild and classic PKU, respectively. (PMID:24350308) PP3: Predicted to be damaging (SIFT), probably damaging (PolyPhen2), Disease causing (MutationTaster). PP4: In both studies, patients were recruited for their abnormal Phelevels defined as HPA <600umol or 120-600umol. There was no additional testing done to rule out other similar analyte disorders. PS3_Not Met: Functional studies in E. Coli model used and relative specific activity of L358F is 52+-0.7%, which is above our 50% threshold to apply this line of evidence.

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.1074A>T (p.Leu358Phe) results in a non-conservative amino acid change located in the Aromatic amino acid hydroxylase, C-terminal domain (IPR019774) of the encoded protein sequence. Five 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 251142 control chromosomes (gnomAD). c.1074A>T has been reported in the literature in individuals affected with hyperphenylalaninemia (examples: Reblova_2013, Polak_2013, Bik-Multanowski_2022). These data indicate that the variant is likely to be associated with disease. The following publications have been ascertained in the context of this evaluation (PMID: 35176108, 28653649, 23764561, 23357515). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 556817). Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as likely pathogenic. -

Significance:Pathogenic
Review Status:criteria provided, single submitter
Collection Method:clinical testing

This sequence change replaces leucine, which is neutral and non-polar, with phenylalanine, which is neutral and non-polar, at codon 358 of the PAH protein (p.Leu358Phe). This variant is present in population databases (rs376480977, gnomAD 0.002%). This missense change has been observed in individual(s) with hyperphenylalaninemia (PMID: 23357515, 23764561, 24350308; Invitae). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 556817). 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%. Experimental studies have shown that this missense change affects PAH function (PMID: 28653649). For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. -
