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]

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

This sequence change replaces valine, which is neutral and non-polar, with leucine, which is neutral and non-polar, at codon 245 of the PAH protein (p.Val245Leu). This variant is present in population databases (rs62508694, gnomAD 0.0009%). This missense change has been observed in individual(s) with phenylketonuria (PMID: 8659548, 22841515, 24368688, 24667082). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 102810). 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. Experimental studies have shown that this missense change affects PAH function (PMID: 11161839, 17924342). This variant disrupts the p.Val245 amino acid residue in PAH. Other variant(s) that disrupt this residue have been determined to be pathogenic (PMID: 8088845, 24296287, 25596310, 26803807). This suggests that this residue is clinically significant, and that variants that disrupt this residue are likely to be disease-causing. For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. -

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

Variant summary: PAH c.733G>C (p.Val245Leu) results in a conservative amino acid change located in the Aromatic amino acid hydroxylase, C-terminal domain of the encoded protein sequence. Four 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 251200 control chromosomes. c.733G>C has been reported in the literature in multiple individuals affected with Phenylalanine Hydroxylase Deficiency (Phenylketonuria) (example, Guldberg_1996, Quirk_2012, Tyfield_1997, Ho_2014, Grange_2014). These data indicate that the variant is very likely to be associated with disease. At least one publication reports experimental evidence evaluating an impact on protein function. The most pronounced variant effect results in 10%-<30% of normal PAH enzyme activity. Four 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 (n=3)/likely pathogenic (n=1). Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as pathogenic. -
