Variant summary

Our verdict is Pathogenic. The variant received 16 ACMG points: 16P and 0B. PM3_Strong PP4_Moderate PM2 PVS1

This summary comes from the ClinGen Evidence Repository: The c.842+2T>A variant in PAH is a splice-site variant predicted to result in skipping of exon 8, leading to a frameshift, premature protein truncation, and NMD (PVS1). It is absent from ethnically diverse control databases, including gnomAD/ExAC, 1000 Genomes, and ESP (PM2). It is reported Pathogenic in Clinvar (ID 614). It has been reported among multiple patients with classic PKU, with BH4 deficiency formally excluded (PMID:17557229; PMID:21307867) (PP4_Moderate) and has been reported in trans with multiple Pathogenic and Likely Pathogenic mutations, including R111X (P, ClinGen); P281L (P, ClinGen); R413P (P, ClinGen); R243Q (P, ClinGen); R261Q (LP/P, ClinGen); R400T (unknown, ClinGen) (PMID:17557229) (PM3_Strong).Classification: PathogenicSupporting Criteria: PVS1, PM2, PM3_Strong, PP4_Moderate LINK:https://erepo.genome.network/evrepo/ui/classification/CA229813/MONDO:0009861/006

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]
