Criteria Specifications for this VCEP
Evidence submitted by expert panel
Phenylketonuria VCEP
This c.527G>A (p.Arg176Gln) variant in PAH was reported in at least two patients with PAH deficiency (PMID: 30459323, 26210745, and 27121329) and detected with pathogenic variants p.Val388Met, p.Arg158Gln, and Arg243Gln (PMID: 27121329,10234516, and 30459323). This variant has extremely low frequency in gnomAD (MAF=0.00007). One other missense variant at this amino acid residue is determined to be pathogenic in ClinVar: p.Arg176Leu by nine submitters. In summary, this variant meets criteria to be classified as pathogenic for PAH. PAH-specific AMCG/AMP criteria applied: PM3_strong, PM2, PM5, and PP4_moderate.
Met criteria codes
PM2
Variant identified in 2/30614 South Asian chromosomes (MAF=0.00007) in gnomAD.
PM5
One other missense variant at this amino acid residue is determined to be pathogenic in ClinVar: p.Arg176Leu by nine submitters.
PP4_Moderate
This variant was observed in at least two probands with mild HPA and one proband with mild PKU. Phe > 120 µmol/L in all probands described. 6R-BH4 was ruled out by urinary pterin levels and by measuring dihydropteridine reductase activity in at least one article. PMID: 30459323, 26210745, and 27121329

PM3_Strong
p.[Arg176Gln];[Val388Met], [R176Q/R158Q], and p.[R243Q];[R176Q]. Segregation analysis was done in all cases. PMID: 27121329,10234516, and 30459323

Not Met criteria codes
PP3
Prediction models disagree. SIFT predicts damaging, PolyPhen2 predicts benign, and MutationTaster predicts neutral.
