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]

Pathogenic, reviewed by expert panelcurationClinGen PAH Variant Curation Expert PanelJun 05, 2020The c.1033G>T (p.Ala345Ser) variant in PAH has been reported in multiple individuals with PAH deficiency. (PMID: 24368688, 17502162, 3430918). This variant has an extremely low allele frequency (MAF=0.00008) in gnomAD. It was detected with multiple pathogenic variants: p.R408W (in trans, PMID: 24368688); c.1045T>C, c.194T>C (PMID: 17502162); p.F39del, c.47_48delCT (aka c.43_44CT), c.1066-11G>A (PMID: 23430918); p.E280K, p.L348V, p.Y414C (PMID: 31623983). Multiple lines of computational evidence support a deleterious effect. In summary, this variant meets criteria to be classified as pathogenic for PAH.

Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingWomen's Health and Genetics/Laboratory Corporation of America, LabCorpMar 30, 2017Variant summary: The PAH c.1033G>T (p.Ala345Ser) variant involves the alteration of a conserved nucleotide, resulting in a missense substitution. The variant lies within the C-terminal aromatic amino acid hydroxylase domain (InterPro) and 4/5 in silico tools predict a damaging outcome for this variant. This variant was found in the large control database ExAC at a frequency of 0.0000166 (2/120330 control chromosomes), which does not exceed the estimated maximal expected allele frequency of a pathogenic PAH variant (0.0079057). Published studies have identified the variant in numerous with patients with PKU and/or HPA, including reports of this variant in compound heterozygosity with other pathogenic/likely pathogenic variants and evidence that the variant cosegregates with disease in a family (Ho_JIMDReports_2013). Additionally, one publication that analyzed the crystal structure of PAH protein reported that the variant of interest is one of "three residues in the active site that are located near the (putative) location of substrate binding or in the region near the catalytic iron" sites, suggesting the variant likely disrupts the critical functions of the protein (Erlandsen_Pediatrics_2003). There are no published in vitro functional studies for the variant; however calculation of the energetic impact (G) by structural modeling shows that this variant leads to lower impact on PAH stability and predicted to cause mild hyperphenylalaninemia (Pey_2007). Multiple clinical diagnostic laboratories/reputable databases classified this variant as pathogenic. Taken together, this variant is classified as pathogenic. -
Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingLabcorp Genetics (formerly Invitae), LabcorpNov 20, 2023This sequence change replaces alanine, which is neutral and non-polar, with serine, which is neutral and polar, at codon 345 of the PAH protein (p.Ala345Ser). This variant is present in population databases (rs62516062, gnomAD 0.008%). This missense change has been observed in individual(s) with hyperphenylalaninemia (PMID: 17502162, 23430918, 24368688). 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: 102484). 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 with a positive predictive value of 80%. For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. -

In the published literature, the variant is associated with a variable phenotype that ranges from non-PKU hyperphenylalaninemia to classic PKU (PMIDs: 32668217 (2020), 24368688 (2014), 23430918 (2012), 17502162 (2007), and 12173030 (2002)). In addition, this variant has been observed in individuals with reported PAH deficiency (PMID: 24368688 (2014) and 17502162 (2007)). Analysis of this variant using bioinformatics tools for the prediction of the effect of amino acid changes on protein structure and function yielded predictions that this variant is damaging. Based on the available information, this variant is classified as pathogenic. -
PAH-related disorder Pathogenic:1
Pathogenic, no assertion criteria providedclinical testingPreventionGenetics, part of Exact SciencesJun 03, 2024The PAH c.1033G>T variant is predicted to result in the amino acid substitution p.Ala345Ser. This variant has been reported in the compound heterozygous state in multiple unrelated patients with PAH-related disorders (Sarkissian et al. 2012. PubMed ID: 23430918; Ho et al. 2014. PubMed ID: 24368688). The patient reported by Ho and colleagues presented with non-PKU hyperphenylalaninemia. A different change to the same amino acid (c.1033G>A, p.Ala345Thr) has also been reported to be causative for phenylalanine hydroxylase deficiency (Eisensmith and Woo. 1992. PubMed ID: 1301187; Karacic et al. 2009. PubMed ID: 19394257). The c.1033G>T (p.Ala345Ser) variant has been interpreted as pathogenic by the ClinGen PAH Variant Curation Expert Panel, as well as multiple other laboratories (https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/clinvar/variation/102484/). It is reported in 0.0080% of alleles in individuals of African descent in gnomAD. Based on the collective evidence, this variant is interpreted as pathogenic. -
