Variant summary

Our verdict is Pathogenic. The variant received 12 ACMG points: 12P and 0B. PP4PM3_SupportingPM2PVS1

This summary comes from the ClinGen Evidence Repository: The c.558_559del (p.Trp187fs) variant in PAH has been reported in 1 Indian PKU patient; Phe = 1240umol/L; BH4 deficiency not excluded (PMID:24130151; PP4). The variant was detected in the homozygous state, both parents confirmed to be heterozygous (consanguineous) - 0.5 points (PMID:24130151; PM3_supporting). This frameshift variant is predicted to undergo NMD, not located in last exon or last 50bp of preliminary exon (Coding exon number 6 out of 13 coding exons; 6 out of total exons) (PVS1). This variant was reported in gnomad with MAF = 0.00016 in South Asian population (PM2). In summary, this variant meets criteria to be classified as pathogenic for PAH. PAH-specific ACMG/AMP criteria applied: PVS1, PM2, PP4, PM3_supporting. LINK:https://erepo.genome.network/evrepo/ui/classification/CA229621/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]

Labcorp Genetics (formerly Invitae), Labcorp
Significance:Pathogenic
Review Status:criteria provided, single submitter
Collection Method:clinical testing

For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 102734). This premature translational stop signal has been observed in individual(s) with phenylketonuria (PMID: 24130151). This variant is present in population databases (rs62517207, gnomAD 0.02%). This sequence change creates a premature translational stop signal (p.Trp187Glyfs*12) in the PAH gene. It is expected to result in an absent or disrupted protein product. Loss-of-function variants in PAH are known to be pathogenic (PMID: 1301187, 9634518). -

Review Status:reviewed by expert panel
Collection Method:curation

The c.558_559del (p.Trp187fs) variant in PAH has been reported in 1 Indian PKU patient; Phe = 1240umol/L; BH4 deficiency not excluded (PMID: 24130151; PP4). The variant was detected in the homozygous state, both parents confirmed to be heterozygous (consanguineous) - 0.5 points (PMID: 24130151; PM3_supporting). This frameshift variant is predicted to undergo NMD, not located in last exon or last 50bp of preliminary exon (Coding exon number 6 out of 13 coding exons; 6 out of total exons) (PVS1). This variant was reported in gnomad with MAF = 0.00016 in South Asian population (PM2). In summary, this variant meets criteria to be classified as pathogenic for PAH. PAH-specific ACMG/AMP criteria applied: PVS1, PM2, PP4, PM3_supporting. -
