Evidence submitted by expert panel
Phenylketonuria VCEP
The PAH variant c.799C>T (p.Gln267Ter) is a null variant (stop gain) located in exon number 7 of the PAH gene. Loss of function in the PAH gene is a mechanism of disease. Eleven null variants in exon 7 of the PAH gene have been reported. The mRNA transcript is predicted to undergo NMD. The variant c.799C>T (p.Gln267Ter) was reported in trans with the pathogenic PAH variant c.442-1G>A (ClinVar ID: 594) in a Chinese patient with classic PKU (Phe levels >20 mg/dl). BH4 deficiency was excluded by analysis of urinary pterins and dihydropteridine reductase activity in erythrocytes. (PMID: 26322415). The PAH variant c.799C>T (p.Gln267Ter) was also reported in trans with the pathogenic PAH variant IVS10‐11G>A (ClinVar ID: 607) in a Brazilian patient with classic PKU (PMID: 18798839) PM3_Strong (2.0). The variant c.799C>T (p.Gln267Ter) is absent from the gnomAD, ExAC, PAGE, and ESP population databases. In summary, this variant meets the criteria to be classified as pathogenic for PAH. PAH-specific ACMG/AMP criteria applied: PM2, PM3_Strong, PVS1, PP4-moderate.
Met criteria codes
PP4_Moderate
The variant c.799C>T (p.Gln267Ter) was reported in a Chinese patient with classic PKU (Phe levels >20 mg/dl). All patients in this study had a blood phenylalanine concentration >2 mg/dl. BH4 deficiency was excluded by analysis of urinary pterins and dihydropteridine reductase activity in erythrocytes. (PMID: 26322415)

PM2
The PAH variant Q267* is absent from the gnomAD, ExAC, PAGE, and ESP population databases.
PVS1
According to Franklin, the variant p.Q267* is a null variant (stop gain). The loss of function in the PAH gene is a mechanism of disease. Eleven null variants in exon 7 of the PAH gene have been reported. The mRNA transcript is predicted to undergo NMD, not located in the last exon or last 50bp of the preliminary exon. Coding exon number 7 out of 13 coding exons.
PM3_Strong
The PAH variant c.799C>T (p.Gln267Ter) was reported in a Brazilian patient in trans with the pathogenic variant IVS10‐11G>A (ClinVar ID: 607) (PMID: 18798839), and in a Chinese patient in trans with the pathogenic variant, c.442-1G>A (ClinVar ID: 594) (PMID: 26322415). Both patients were classified as having classic PKU. PM3_Strong (2.0)
