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]

Variant summary: PAH c.932T>C (p.Leu311Pro) results in a non-conservative amino acid change located in the Aromatic amino acid hydroxylase, C-terminal domain (IPR019774) of the encoded protein sequence. Five of five in-silico tools predict a damaging effect of the variant on protein function. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 2e-05 in 251288 control chromosomes (gnomAD). c.932T>C has been reported in the literature in multiple individuals in affected with Phenylalanine Hydroxylase Deficiency (Phenylketonuria) (Rivera_2000, Jeannesson-Thivisol_2015, Aldamiz-Echevarria_2016). These data indicate that the variant is very likely to be associated with disease. At least two in vitro studies report this variant has an impact on protein function and results in <10% of normal PAH activity. No clinical diagnostic laboratories have submitted clinical-significance assessments for this variant to ClinVar after 2014. Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as pathogenic.

ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 578). This sequence change replaces leucine, which is neutral and non-polar, with proline, which is neutral and non-polar, at codon 311 of the PAH protein (p.Leu311Pro). This variant is present in population databases (rs62642936, gnomAD 0.005%). This missense change has been observed in individual(s) with hyperphenylalaninemia (PMID: 2615649, 2840952, 9359039, 9634518, 10394930, 21871829). 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. Experimental studies have shown that this missense change affects PAH function (PMID: 12655546, 17935162, 30037505). Algorithms developed to predict the effect of sequence changes on RNA splicing suggest that this variant may create or strengthen a splice site. For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic.
