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]

Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingInvitaeJan 28, 2024This sequence change replaces proline, which is neutral and non-polar, with serine, which is neutral and polar, at codon 119 of the PAH protein (p.Pro119Ser). This variant is present in population databases (rs398123292, gnomAD 0.2%). This missense change has been observed in individual(s) with hyperphenylalaninemia (PMID: 12655554, 21147011, 30389586, 31355225). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 92741). An algorithm developed to predict the effect of missense changes on protein structure and function (PolyPhen-2) suggests that this variant is likely to be disruptive. For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. -
Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingWomen's Health and Genetics/Laboratory Corporation of America, LabCorpFeb 13, 2023Variant summary: PAH c.355C>T (p.Pro119Ser) results in a non-conservative amino acid change located in the 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. 4/4 computational tools predict no significant impact on normal splicing. However, these predictions have yet to be confirmed by functional studies. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 0.00029 in 251358 control chromosomes, predominantly at a frequency of 0.0023 within the South Asian subpopulation in the gnomAD database. This frequency is not significantly higher than expected for a pathogenic variant in PAH causing Phenylalanine Hydroxylase Deficiency (Phenylketonuria) (0.00029 vs 0.0079), allowing no conclusion about variant significance. c.355C>T has been reported in the literature in multiple individuals affected with Phenylalanine Hydroxylase Deficiency (Phenylketonuria) or Hyperphenylalaninemia (e.g. Lindner_2003, Dobrowolski_2011, Esfahani_2018, Kuznetcova_2019, Su_2019). These data indicate that the variant is very likely to be associated with disease. Eight clinical diagnostic laboratories have submitted clinical-significance assessments for this variant to ClinVar after 2014 without evidence for independent evaluation (pathogenic n=2, likely pathogenic n=5, VUS n=1). Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as pathogenic. -

Likely pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingQuest Diagnostics Nichols Institute San Juan CapistranoFeb 20, 2023This variant is associated with phenylketonuria and hyperphenylalaninemia (PMIDs: 17924342 (2007), 21147011 (20111), and 35405047 (2022)). The variant has been reported as homozygous (PMID: 36537053 (2022)) or compound heterozygous with other pathogenic PAH variants in multiple individuals with PAH-related conditions (PMIDs: 31355225 (2019), 30389586 (2019), and 32668217 (2020)). Analysis of this variant using bioinformatics tools for the prediction of the effect of amino acid changes on protein structure and function yielded predictions that this variant is damaging. Based on the available information, this variant is classified as likely pathogenic. -

Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingAmbry GeneticsDec 06, 2023The c.355C>T (p.P119S) alteration is located in exon 4 (coding exon 4) of the PAH gene. This alteration results from a C to T substitution at nucleotide position 355, causing the proline (P) at amino acid position 119 to be replaced by a serine (S). Based on data from gnomAD, the T allele has an overall frequency of 0.029% (72/251358) total alleles studied. The highest observed frequency was 0.229% (70/30616) of South Asian alleles. This alteration has been reported compound heterozygous with a second alteration in PAH in multiple patients with biochemically confirmed PKU or hyperphenylalaninemia (Lindner, 2003; Esfahani, 2019; Su, 2019). This amino acid position is highly conserved in available vertebrate species. This alteration is predicted to be deleterious by in silico analysis. Based on the available evidence, this alteration is classified as pathogenic. -
