Variant summary

Our verdict is Pathogenic. Variant got 13 ACMG points: 13P and 0B. PM3_SupportingPVS1PP4_ModeratePM2

This summary comes from the ClinGen Evidence Repository: The c.441+1G>C variant in PAH is a canonical splice-site variant predicted to result in skipping of exon 5, leading to a frameshift, premature protein truncation, and NMD (PVS1). It is present at an extremely low frequency in gnomAD (MAF = 0.00000398, less than the 0.0002 MAF cutoff) (PM2) and absent from other ethnically diverse control databases, including 1000 Genomes and ESP (PM2). It is reported Likely Pathogenic in Clinvar (Variation ID 556894) by one diagnostic testing lab. It has been reported in the published literature in a Kurdish patient with classic PKU (PMID:24048906), diagnosed by plasma Phe levels; BH4 deficiency was excluded by urinary pterin analysis (PP4_Moderate). The patient was homozygous for the variant (PMID:24048906) (PM3_Supporting).

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]
