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]

Likely pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingWomen's Health and Genetics/Laboratory Corporation of America, LabCorpJun 15, 2023Variant summary: PAH c.722G>T (p.Arg241Leu) results in a non-conservative amino acid change located in the Aromatic amino acid hydroxylase, C-terminal (IPR019774) 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 251030 control chromosomes. c.722G>T has been reported in the literature as a compound heterozygous genotype individuals affected with Phenylalanine Hydroxylase Deficiency (Phenylketonuria) (Liu_2017, Ngiwsara_2021, Zschocke_1995, Eisensmith_1996). In addition other variants affecting the same amino acid have been classified as pathogenic (R241C, R241H) and likely pathogenic (R241S) in our laboratory or in ClinVar, supporting the functional importance of this amino acid. To our knowledge, no experimental evidence demonstrating an impact on protein function has been reported. The following publications have been ascertained in the context of this evaluation (PMID: 8632937, 28982351, 33677757, 8533759). One clinical diagnostic laboratory has submitted clinical-significance assessments for this variant to ClinVar after 2014 and classified the variant as pathogenic. Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as likely pathogenic. -
Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingLabcorp Genetics (formerly Invitae), LabcorpJan 16, 2024This sequence change replaces arginine, which is basic and polar, with leucine, which is neutral and non-polar, at codon 241 of the PAH protein (p.Arg241Leu). This variant is present in population databases (rs62508730, gnomAD 0.004%). This missense change has been observed in individual(s) with hyperphenylalaninemia (PMID: 8533759, 8632937, 28982351; Invitae). In at least one individual the data is consistent with being in trans (on the opposite chromosome) from a pathogenic variant. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 102805). 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%. This variant disrupts the p.Arg241 amino acid residue in PAH. Other variant(s) that disrupt this residue have been determined to be pathogenic (PMID: 8222245, 8632937, 10479481, 14681498, 18985011, 19915519, 22330942, 24368688, 25894915). 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. -
