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

Classification was made for transcript

Our verdict: Pathogenic. The variant received 18 ACMG points.

PVS1
Splicing +-2 bp (donor or acceptor) variant, LoF is a know mechanism of disease, Cryptic splice site detected, with MaxEntScore 9.7, offset of -5, new splice context is: aaaGTaagt. Cryptic site results in frameshift change. If cryptic site found is not functional and variant results in exon loss, it results in frameshift change.
PM2
Very rare variant in population databases, with high coverage;
PP5
Variant 12-102843645-C-A is Pathogenic according to our data. Variant chr12-102843645-C-A is described in ClinVar as Pathogenic. ClinVar VariationId is 1810393.Status of the report is reviewed_by_expert_panel, 3 stars.

The c.1199+1G>T variant in exon 11 of PAH disrupts a canonical splice donor site. It is predicted to cause skipping of biologically-relevant-exon 11/13, resulting in a frameshift leading to nonsense mediated decay (PVS1). At least one patient (PMID: 31623983) with this variant had classic PKU with a serum phenylalanine level >1200uM (PP4). This patient is compound heterozygous for c.1199+1G>T and Arg408Trp (ClinVar 577, classified Pathogenic by the PAH VCEP) without confirmation of phase (PM3_supporting). This variant is absent from gnomAD v2.1.1 (PM2). In summary, this variant meets the criteria to be classified as pathogenic for autosomal recessive phenylketonuria based on the ACMG/AMP criteria applied, as specified by the ClinGen PAH VCEP: PVS1, PP4, PM3, PM2. (PAH VCEP specifications version 1). -
