Phenylketonuria VCEP

The c.441T>C (p.Pro147=) PAH variant has been reported in 1 Chinese patient with mild hyperphenylalaninemia (PMID: 30459323) detected with the PAH variant of uncertain significance p.Arg53His. A defect in BH4 metabolism was not excluded. This variant is absent from population databases. It is a synonymous variant with conflicting predictions by splicing prediction algorithms. In summary, this variant meets criteria to be classified as uncertain significance for PAH. PAH-specific ACMG/AMP criteria applied: PM2, PP4.

PP4

PP4_met: This variant was reported in 1 Chinese patient with mild hyperphenylalaninemia (PMID: 30459323). 30459323, Chen - This variant was reported in 1 Chinese patient with PAH deficiency. Phenylalanine plasma concentrations >120 μmol/L were reported for all subjects. Patients with BH4 cofactor deficiency were excluded, however, the paper did not mention urinary pterin analysis and DHPR activity as methods of exclusion.

PM2

PM2_met: This variant is absent from population databases gnomAD and ExAC.

BP7

BP7_not met: Splicing prediction algorithms have conflicting predictions (Splice AI: benign (0.01), TraP: probably damaging (0.608), MutationTaster: likely to disturb normal splicing). The nucleotide is highly conserved.

PP3

PP3_not met: Splicing prediction algorithms have conflicting predictions (Splice AI: benign (0.01), TraP: probably damaging (0.608), MutationTaster: likely to disturb normal splicing).

PM3

PM3_not met: This variant was detected in trans with the PAH variant of uncertain significance p.Arg53His in one patient with mild hyperphenylalaninemia (MHP)(PMID: 30459323). Parental analysis was not performed to confirm compound heterozygosity. (The genotype was listed in the supplemental section as p.[R53H];[P147P], however, it was listed with the incorrect c., c.441A>G. This c.441A>G was not mentioned in the actual paper.)
