Variant summary

Our verdict is Likely pathogenic. Variant got 7 ACMG points: 7P and 0B. PM2 PP4_Moderate PP3 PM3

This summary comes from the ClinGen Evidence Repository: The c.974A>G (p.Tyr325Cys) variant in PAH has been reported in multiple individuals with PKU (BH4 deficiency excluded). It was detected with pathogenic/LP variants p.L194P (LP) PMID:23430918 L348V (P) PMID:10679941 p.P281L (LP) PMID:22526846 p.R408W (P) with parental analysis not reported for 1.5 points. This variant has extremely low frequency in gnomAD (MAF=0.00001). Computational evidence supports a a deleterious effect. In summary, this variant meets criteria to be classified as likely pathogenic for PAH. PAH-specific ACMG/AMP criteria applied: PP4_Moderate, PM2, PM3, PP3.

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

Verdict is Likely_pathogenic. Variant got 7 ACMG points.

Likely pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitter	clinical testing	Counsyl	Dec 28, 2017	- -
Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitter	clinical testing	Invitae	Aug 17, 2023	This missense change has been observed in individual(s) with hyperphenylalaninemia (PMID: 10679941, 32668217; BIOPKU http://www.biopku.org). In at least one individual the data is consistent with being in trans (on the opposite chromosome) from a pathogenic variant. This sequence change replaces tyrosine, which is neutral and polar, with cysteine, which is neutral and slightly polar, at codon 325 of the PAH protein (p.Tyr325Cys). This variant is present in population databases (rs62508578, gnomAD 0.0009%). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 92756). 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. For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. -
