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]

(PMID:18299955; PMID:11524738).

Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingInvitaeJan 24, 2024This sequence change replaces arginine, which is basic and polar, with tryptophan, which is neutral and slightly polar, at codon 252 of the PAH protein (p.Arg252Trp). This variant is present in population databases (rs5030847, gnomAD 0.006%). This missense change has been observed in individuals with PAH-associated diseases (PMID: 2574153, 8116675, 17096675, 20082265, 25596310; Invitae). It has also been observed to segregate with disease in related individuals. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 584). 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 expected to disrupt PAH protein function with a positive predictive value of 80%. Experimental studies have shown that this missense change affects PAH function (PMID: 12655546, 25596310). For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. -
Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingWomen's Health and Genetics/Laboratory Corporation of America, LabCorpApr 26, 2018Variant summary: PAH c.754C>T (p.Arg252Trp) results in a non-conservative amino acid change located in the Aromatic amino acid hydroxylase, C-terminal 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 4.9e-05 in 121328 control chromosomes (ExAC). This frequency is not significantly higher than expected for a pathogenic variant in PAH causing Phenylalanine Hydroxylase Deficiency (Phenylketonuria) (4.9e-05 vs 0.0079), allowing no conclusion about variant significance. The variant, c.754C>T, has been reported in the literature in numerous individuals affected with Phenylalanine Hydroxylase Deficiency (Phenylketonuria) in both the compound heterozygous and homozygous states (Aldmiz-Echevarra_2016, Dobrowolski_2011, Jeannesson-Thivisol_2015) and enzyme activity has been reported in patients as <10% of normal activity. Three clinical diagnostic laboratories have submitted clinical-significance assessments for this variant to ClinVar after 2014 without evidence for independent evaluation. All laboratories classified the variant as pathogenic/likely pathogenic. Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as pathogenic. -

Found in at least one symptomatic patient. Predicted to have a damaging effect on the protein. One other pathogenic or likely pathogenic variant affects the same amino acid. Occurs in multiple cases with a recessive pathogenic variant in the same gene. Assessment of experimental evidence suggests this variant results in abnormal protein function. -
