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]

Phenylketonuria Pathogenic:7
Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingWomen's Health and Genetics/Laboratory Corporation of America, LabCorpMay 26, 2017Variant summary: The PAH c.745C>T (p.Leu249Phe) variant located in the Aromatic amino acid hydroxylase, C-terminal domain (via InterPro) involves the alteration of a conserved nucleotide and 4/5 in silico tools predict a damaging outcome. This variant was found in 3/121308 control chromosomes at a frequency of 0.0000247, which does not exceed the estimated maximal expected allele frequency of a pathogenic PAH variant (0.0079057). Multiple publications have cited the variant in affected individuals. In addition, 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), LabcorpJan 24, 2024This sequence change replaces leucine, which is neutral and non-polar, with phenylalanine, which is neutral and non-polar, at codon 249 of the PAH protein (p.Leu249Phe). This variant is present in population databases (rs74503222, gnomAD 0.01%). This missense change has been observed in individual(s) with PAH-related conditions (PMID: 1349566, 8533759, 24368688, 24765287, 25155776; Invitae). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 102821). 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: 25155776 (2014), 24368688 (2014), 23357515 (2013), 23430918 (2012), 22112818 (2012), 24765287 (2011), 21871829 (2011), 18798839 (2008), 18394115 (2008), 12173030 (2002), 11385716 (2001), 10429004 (1999), 9634518 (1998), 8831077 (1996), 8632937 (1996), 8533759 (1995), and 1349566 (1992)). In addition, this variant has been observed in individuals with reported PAH deficiency with undetermined PAH enzymatic activity (PMID: 21871829 (2011)). 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. -
Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingGeneDxMay 06, 2022In silico analysis supports that this missense variant has a deleterious effect on protein structure/function; Not observed at a significant frequency in large population cohorts (gnomAD); BH4 responsiveness in patients with L249F is unclear (Rivera et al., 2011); This variant is associated with the following publications: (PMID: 7913581, 8875186, 25750018, 21871829, 8533759, 18394115, 1349566, 8659548, 25155776, 18798839, 24765287, 24368688, 30037505, 27620137, 32668217, 32778825, 33465300, 33375644) -
